Mastoid Surgery Does Not Normalize Tympanometric Middle Ear Pressure in Children With Cholesteatoma
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Conflicting mechanism‐based hypotheses have been used to promote selection of different approaches to management of the mastoid in order to optimize middle ear pressure homeostasis after removal of cholesteatoma. For example: (a) conservation of mastoid mucosa and opening of ventilation pathways endoscopically to normalize function, (b) removal of ...

Attrition in Cochlear Implant Research: Sociodemographic, Audiologic, and Performance Variables
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.In a retrospective review of attrition patterns for participants in a clinical research study, sociodemographic variables were not significantly different between those who elected to withdraw and those who completed the study. Those in the withdrawal group had poorer low‐frequency residual hearing, were less likely to be electric‐acoustic stimulation ...

Balance Disorders in Young and Middle‐Aged Adults: NHANES, 2001–2004 and 2021–2023
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This study presents nationally‐representative estimates from two health exam surveys, NHANES 2001–2004 and 2021–2023. In the two decades between test periods, scores on the modified Romberg screening test for balance function demonstrated significantly better age‐specific performance in 2021–2023.

Immediate and delayed cochlear neuropathy after noise exposure in pubescent mice.
PLoS ONE, 2015 Moderate acoustic overexposure in adult rodents is known to cause acute loss of synapses on sensory inner hair cells (IHCs) and delayed degeneration of the auditory nerve, despite the completely reversible temporary threshold shift (TTS) and ...
