We identified a novel c.1023_1029del (p.Asp342ArgfsTer54) frameshift variant in the HOMER2 gene that causes ADNSHL in a Chinese family with progressive, post‐lingual sensorineural hearing loss. The c.1023_1029del variant deletes 7 nucleotides, leading to an extended incorrect protein C terminus and marks the sixth pathogenic (or likely pathogenic ...

This study reviews the literature comparing speech recognition outcomes between remote versus in‐person CI programming. Speech recognition outcomes tested in quiet were similar between in‐person programmed and remotely programmed CI users for word lists (SMD: −0.06 [95% CI: −0.37–0.35], p = 0.71) and for sentences (SMD: −0.28 [95% CI: −0.79–0.24], p ...

The loss of inner hair cells and/or neurons in the cochlea leads to cochlear dead regions (DRs). One of the consequences of DRs is noisy transmission of information from the cochlea to the brain, which results in poorer than expected perception of speech
