Glucocorticoid Treatment for Cochlear Ischemic and Acoustic Injuries
The effect of glucocorticoids on sensorineural hearing loss of sudden onset remains to be controversial although glucocorticoids have been used for treatment of sudden sensorineural hearing loss. We review recent findings about the effect of glucocorticoids on cochlear ischemic and acoustic injuries obtained from animal experiments.

The primary loss of cochlear glutamatergic afferent nerve synapses due to noise or ageing (cochlear neuropathy) often presents as difficulties in speech discrimination in noisy conditions (hidden hearing loss (HHL)).

Lipidic nanocapsule drug delivery : neuronal protection for cochlear implant optimization [PDF]
Objective: Sensorineural hearing loss leads to the progressive degeneration of spiral ganglion cells (SGC). Next to postoperative fibrous tissue growth, which should be suppressed to assure a close nerve–electrode interaction, the density of healthy SGC ...

Transforming growth factor β1 inhibition protects from noise-induced hearing loss
Excessive exposure to noise damages the principal cochlear structures leading to hearing impairment. Inflammatory and immune responses are central mechanisms in cochlear defensive response to noise but, if unregulated, they contribute to inner ear damage

EVALUATION OF THE RESULTS OF DIFFERENT PROCEDURES IN COCHLEAR IMPLANTATION. [PDF]
Background: The cochlear implantation has radically changed the outlook for profoundly deaf adults and children. The cochlear implant can provide sufficient hearing sensations to enable most severely or profoundly deafened persons to continue ...

Anatomical Characteristics of the Facial Nerve in Patients With Cochlear Hypoplasia. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective To quantitatively characterize the spatial relationships between intratemporal facial nerve segments and key cochlear implantation (CI) landmarks in cochlear hypoplasia (CH), and to compare these features with age‐matched CI recipients with normal inner ear anatomy, thereby informing preoperative planning and facial nerve ...

Background: The posterior tympanum approach of cochlear implantation is easy to damage the facial nerve and cord tympanic nerve. Therefore, we need to improve the safety of cochlear implantation.

Modelling Cochlear mechanics [PDF]
The cochlea plays a crucial role in mammal hearing. The basic function of the cochlea is to map sounds of different frequencies onto corresponding characteristic positions on the basilar membrane (BM).

Interleukin-10 Attenuates Hypochlorous Acid-Mediated Cytotoxicity to HEI-OC1 Cochlear Cells
Inflammatory reaction plays a crucial role in the pathophysiology of acquired hearing loss such as ototoxicity and labyrinthitis. In our earlier work, we showed the pivotal role of otic fibrocytes in cochlear inflammation and the critical involvement of ...
