Greater Cochlear Damage in Otogenic Versus Meningogenic Meningitis: Hearing Rehabilitation Implications

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Otogenic route of meningitis was associated with greater cochlear hair cell loss in comparison with the meningogenic one in this otopathology study. Neuronal depletion has been traditionally implicated in failed hearing rehabilitation of post‐meningitis deafness.

Time‐Continuous Prognostic Mapping of Bell's Palsy Using Yanagihara Scores and Electroneurography

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study developed a novel, time‐continuous prognostic mapping for Bell's palsy by integrating longitudinal Yanagihara scores and electroneurography in patients treated with high‐dose corticosteroids. By employing a Bayesian probabilistic approach, this model enables individualized recovery estimation at any clinical time point, overcoming the ...
