Classification and Current Management of Inner Ear Malformations
Balkan Medical Journal, 2017 Morphologically congenital sensorineural hearing loss can be investigated under two categories. Majority of the congenital hearing loss (80%) are membranous malformations. Here the pathology involves inner ear hair cells.

Addition of exogenous NAD+ prevents mefloquine-induced neuroaxonal and hair cell degeneration through reduction of caspase-3-mediated apoptosis in cochlear organotypic cultures. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Mefloquine is widely used for the treatment of malaria. However, this drug is known to induce neurological side effects including depression, anxiety, balance disorder, and sensorineural hearing loss.

Somatosensory tinnitus: current evidence and future perspectives [PDF]
, 2017 In some individuals, tinnitus can be modulated by specific maneuvers of the temporomandibular joint, head and neck, eyes, and limbs. Neuroplasticity seems to play a central role in this capacity for modulation, suggesting that abnormal interactions ...

LRRC8A Regulates Outer Hair Cell Volume and Electromotility and is Required for Hearing
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study identifies LRRC8A‐dependent volume‐regulated anion channels (VRACs) as essential for cochlear outer hair cells' electromotility and auditory signal amplification. LRRC8A deficiency disrupts cell volume control, impairs auditory sensitivity, and causes deafness, while targeted LRRC8A re‐expression restores auditory function.

Bioprinted Organoids: An Innovative Engine in Biomedicine
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Bioprinted organoids refer to either the printing of stem cells into tissue shape and subsequent differentiate into organoids, or assembling induced organoids as bioinks to replicate native organ. It enables the creation of miniaturized organs with complex architectures and physiological functions, potentially enhancing reproducibility, throughput, and

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.In this contribution, it is shown that miniaturized nerve stimulation implants can be used in collaborative networks. Inductive links and ultrasound are combined to supply these implants with energy and data; the advantages and disadvantages of each method, as well as safety risks and possibilities for improvement are discussed and the best ...
