Although the majority of early implanted, profoundly deaf children with cochlear implants (CIs), will develop correct pronunciation if they receive adequate oral language stimulation, many of them have difficulties with perceiving minute details of ...

Triggered Calcium Lightning Programs Cochlear Development
Summary: Before the onset of hearing, the developing inner ear generates spontaneous calcium signals that are thought to guide maturation. In this study, we discovered a rapid and widespread calcium flash—dubbed “Ca2+ lightning”—originating from supporting cells beneath the sensory hair cells, which triggers coordinated calcium waves across the entire ...

Understanding the Symptom Burden of Complex Skull Base Tumors From the Patient's Perspective
ABSTRACT Background Symptom burden of skull base tumor (SBT) patients, especially those undergoing multimodality treatment, is poorly understood. We aim to understand symptom burden in this patient group using the core module the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI).

Cochlear Implants and Adult Patient Experiences, Adaptation and Challenges: A Survey
Background: Cochlear implants (CIs) are a life-changing treatment for individuals with severe to profound hearing loss, yet adult CI uptake remains low despite high clinical and economic effectiveness.

Bone‐Anchored Implant Survival in Oncologic Facial Prosthetic Rehabilitation
ABSTRACT Background Published survival rates for bone‐anchored craniofacial implants exceed 85%, but derive largely from mixed populations. Whether these apply to head and neck oncologic surgery remains uncertain. Methods Retrospective survival analysis of implants placed for prosthetic rehabilitation following extirpative surgery at a UK center (2005 ...

Whole exome sequencing in a consanguineous Iranian family with autosomal recessive non‐syndromic hearing loss revealed a novel homozygous frameshift mutation, c.3713dupA (p.Asp1238Glufs*10), in the LOXHD1 gene. This mutation, located in exon 24, results in a premature stop codon and a truncated protein. Sanger sequencing confirmed co‐segregation of the

Multi-Frequency Electrocochleography Results in Fewer Drop Alarms During Cochlear Implant Insertion. [PDF]
A novel multi‐frequency electrocochleography (ECochG) algorithm used during cochlear implant electrode insertion is associated with fewer drop alarms and an increase in optimal insertion track patterns. Multi‐frequency ECochG may provide a more accurate assessment of the cochlear microenvironment when compared to single‐frequency ECochG.

Hearing Preservation Rates After Cochlear Implantation Using Soft Surgery Techniques
ABSTRACT Objectives To determine if hearing preservation rates after cochlear implantation varied over time with soft surgery techniques. Methods The hearing preservation rate over time in adult cochlear implant patients over 10 years was analyzed. The association between hearing preservation rate and sex, age, perioperative steroid dose, and type of ...
