Long‐term cochlear implantation outcomes in patients following head injury [PDF]
Objective In cases of a severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss following head injury, the cochlear implant (CI) is the primary option for auditory rehabilitation.

Toll-like receptor 4 modulates the cochlear immune response to acoustic injury [PDF]
AbstractAcoustic overstimulation traumatizes the cochlea, resulting in auditory dysfunction. As a consequence of acoustic injury, the immune system in the cochlea is activated, leading to the production of inflammatory mediators and the infiltration of immune cells.

meningitis following head injury after cochlear implantation: A case report
Bacterial meningitis is a rare event in children with cochlear implants. A 7-year-old child who underwent cochlear implantation (CI) for the right ear 6 years ago was admitted to our hospital with the chief complaint of intermittent fever and headache ...

Pravastatin Administration Alleviates Kanamycin-Induced Cochlear Injury and Hearing Loss. [PDF]
The effect of statins on aminoglycoside-induced ototoxicity is controversial. This study aimed to explore the role of pravastatin (PV) in kanamycin-induced hearing loss in rats. Adult rats were intraperitoneally treated with 20 mg/kg/day of kanamycin (KM) for 10 days.

Transcriptional response to mild therapeutic hypothermia in noise-induced cochlear injury. [PDF]
IntroductionPrevention or treatment for acoustic injury has been met with many translational challenges, resulting in the absence of FDA-approved interventions. Localized hypothermia following noise exposure mitigates acute cochlear injury and may serve as a potential avenue for therapeutic approaches.

Purinergic Signaling and Cochlear Injury-Targeting the Immune System? [PDF]
Hearing impairment is the most common sensory deficit, affecting more than 400 million people worldwide. Sensorineural hearing losses currently lack any specific or efficient pharmacotherapy largely due to the insufficient knowledge of the pathomechanism. Purinergic signaling plays a substantial role in cochlear (patho)physiology.

Evaluation of hidden hearing loss in normal-hearing firearm users
Some noise exposures resulting in temporary threshold shift (TTS) result in cochlear synaptopathy. The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate a human population that might be at risk for noise-induced cochlear synaptopathy (i.e., “hidden ...

Adenosine amine congener mitigates noise-induced cochlear injury [PDF]
Hearing loss from noise exposure is a leading occupational disease, with up to 5% of the population at risk world-wide. Here, we present a novel purine-based pharmacological intervention that can ameliorate noise-induced cochlear injury. Wistar rats were exposed to narrow-band noise (8-12 kHz, 110 dB SPL, 2-24 h) to induce cochlear damage and permanent

Chronic suppurative otitis media causes macrophage-associated sensorineural hearing loss
Background Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is the most common cause of permanent hearing loss in children in the developing world. A large component of the permanent hearing loss is sensory in nature and our understanding of the mechanism of this

Preservation of low-frequency residual hearing is very important for combined electro-acoustic stimulation after cochlear implantation. However, in clinical practice, loss of low-frequency residual hearing often occurs after cochlear implantation and its
