Multicargo Porous Cochlear Electrode Coating for Antifibrosis After Cochlear Implantation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a novel porous drug‐loading coating for cochlear electrodes, utilizing MA‐PDMS infused with GelMA hydrogel containing dexamethasone and MXene nanoparticles. The coating enhances biocompatibility, enables sustained drug release, reduces fibrosis, and preserves residual hearing post‐CI.

Music Engineering as a Novel Strategy for Enhancing Music Enjoyment in the Cochlear Implant Recipient

Behavioural Neurology, 2015
Objective. Enjoyment of music remains an elusive goal following cochlear implantation. We test the hypothesis that reengineering music to reduce its complexity can enhance the listening experience for the cochlear implant (CI) listener. Methods.

Consonant and Vowel Confusions in Well-Performing Children and Adolescents With Cochlear Implants, Measured by a Nonsense Syllable Repetition Test

Frontiers in Psychology, 2019
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 ...

Micro‐Coil Neuromodulation at Single‐Cell and Circuit Levels for Inhibiting Natural Neuroactivity, Neutralizing Electric Neural Excitation, and Suppressing Seizures

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Micromagnetic stimulation (µMS) offers a precise method for neural inhibition, complementing existing neuromodulation techniques. Using an implantable micro‐coil device, µMS selectively suppresses cortical activity with high spatial resolution. It effectively counteracts micro‐electrode stimulation and reduces seizure amplitude, highlighting its ...

Aging, Cognitive Decline and Hearing Loss: Effects of Auditory Rehabilitation and Training with Hearing Aids and Cochlear Implants on Cognitive Function and Depression among Older Adults [PDF]

, 2016
A growing interest in cognitive effects associated with speech and hearing processes is spreading throughout the scientific community essentially guided by evidence that central and peripheral hearing loss is associated with cognitive decline.

Reducing artifacts in electrically evoked auditory potentials (eAEP)

Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering
Introduction: In auditory evoked potentials (= AEP), auditory brainstem response (= ABR) is the gold standard for objective analysis of the auditory pathway using acoustical stimulators like headphones during hearing screening and patient assessment ...

Nephronectin (NPNT) is a Crucial Determinant of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis: Modulating Cellular Senescence via the ITGA3/YAP1 Signaling Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Through a comprehensive multi‐omics analysis, this study identifies a marked reduction in Nephronectin (NPNT) expression within fibrotic lung tissue. This reduction impairs the binding capability to the ITGA3 receptor, consequently causing YAP1 to persist in the cytoplasm, where it undergoes degradation.

The timecourse of multisensory speech processing in unilaterally stimulated cochlear implant users revealed by ERPs

NeuroImage: Clinical, 2022
A cochlear implant (CI) is an auditory prosthesis which can partially restore the auditory function in patients with severe to profound hearing loss. However, this bionic device provides only limited auditory information, and CI patients may compensate ...

Visualization of the Spiral Ganglion Neuron in Vivo Using a Novel 177Lu Nuclear Molecule Label

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study developed and validated a radionuclide‐labeled anti‐VGLUT1 antibody probe for the first nuclear imaging of cochlear spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) in vivo. This approach may provide aid in screening candidates suitable for CI surgery by quantifying the number of surviving SGNs, and predicting the potential for postoperative hearing ...

Speech and language skills of Maltese children with bilateral cochlear implants : three case studies [PDF]

, 2014
The purpose of this study was to document the speech and language skills of three Maltese children with bilateral cochlear implants. One child was simultaneously implanted and had a hearing age (HA) of 2;10 years at the time of testing, another was ...
