Patient Experience of Undergoing MRI With a New Active Transcutaneous Bone‐Anchored Hearing Implant
Active transcutaneous bone‐anchored hearing implants belong to a class of devices that may pose challenges in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) settings. In this prospective study, all MRI scans in patients (n = 15) with the Sentio Ti implant were completed without complications, and patients reported generally positive experiences with low levels of ...

Multicenter Study Results on Expanded Indications in Med‐EL Pediatric Cochlear Implant Population
ABSTRACT Objectives To demonstrate safety and efficacy of MED‐EL cochlear implants (CIs) in children aged < 12 months and in children aged 12–71 months with residual hearing. Methods This was a multicenter, nonrandomized, single‐subject, repeated‐measures study with prospective (N = 38; 26 < 12 months of age) and retrospective (N = 209; 70 < 12 months ...

COCHLEAR IMMUNE INJURY FOLLOWING DIRECT ANTIGEN CHALLENGE TO THE ENDOLYMPHATIC SAC
Following direct KLH antigen challenge to the endolymphatic sac (e. sac) in guinea pigs, degeneration of the cochlea was examined histologically by light microscopy. Degeneration was seen in 21 out of 140 animals presensitized systemically from day 1 to 5 weeks post secondary KLH challenge to the e. sac.

The Incidence of Sensorineural Hearing Loss Diagnoses in People with and without Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) and sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) are both prevalent conditions among older adults. Although increasing number of studies have investigated SNHL as a risk factor for PD, it is not well known how diagnosed PD affects the likelihood of SNHL diagnosis.

Joint Risk Factor Combinations with Additive Interaction Increase the Risk of Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Background Combined effects of multiple risk factors on incident late‐onset Parkinson's disease (PD; LOPD) remain poorly characterized. Objective The objective of this study was to quantify the impact of joint risk exposures and estimate the contribution of potentially modifiable factors to incident LOPD risk.

Complications of Cochlear Implant Surgery in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries: A Systematic Review
Abstract Objective Hearing loss disproportionately affects low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). Recent advances in cochlear implant surgery have benefitted patients globally, but the risk of complications in LMICs may be heightened due to social and structural factors.
