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 ...

Efficacy and Safety of Intratympanic Botulinum Toxin Injection on Middle Ear Myoclonic Tinnitus
Intratympanic Botulinum toxin (IT‐BTX) injection appears to be an effective and safe treatment for MEMT, significantly reducing tinnitus‐related symptoms without complications. In a retrospective study of 57 patients, THI scores and VAS measures for loudness, awareness, annoyance, and life impact improved significantly over 6 months.

Predictors of Early and Long‐Term Sound Quality Ratings in Adult Cochlear Implant Recipients
This longitudinal study of 339 adult cochlear implant recipients demonstrates that subjective sound quality ratings improve significantly during the first 6 months post‐activation before plateauing, with early outcomes predicted by electrode placement factors (closer modiolar distance and deeper insertion depth), pre‐operative sound quality, and word ...

Impact of Acute Versus Chronic Unilateral Hearing Loss on Head Movement in a Novel Binaural Task
Individuals with single‐sided deafness (SSD) may develop adaptive listening strategies with head movement patterns to optimize monaural localization and speech‐in‐noise understanding. Granular understanding of adaptive behaviors may better inform rehabilitation for SSD.
