Malleostapedotomy in Patients With Stapes Fixation: A Systematic Review

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 4, Page 1601-1613, April 2026.
This systematic review analyses the current evidence on malleostapedotomy as a primary or revision procedure in patients with stapes fixation. Twenty‐five studies comprising 632 operated ears were included. Malleostapedotomy proved to be a safe and effective alternative to incus‐anchoring stapedoplasty, with favorable hearing outcomes and a low ...

Deep Learning‐Based Inner Ear Subregion Segmentation in 3D T2‐Weighted MRI Using Label‐Preserving Data Augmentation

NMR in Biomedicine, Volume 39, Issue 4, April 2026.
A deep learning segmentation model was proposed for automated inner ear subregion segmentation using 3D T2‐weighted MRI. A transformer‐based model with label‐preserving data augmentation improves delineation of thin and complex structures such as the semicircular canals.

Clinical Diagnostics After Failed Hearing Screening in People With Intellectual Disabilities Do Not Often Take Place

Journal of Intellectual Disability Research, Volume 70, Issue 4, Page 384-394, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Individuals with intellectual disabilities are at higher risk of undiagnosed or inadequately treated hearing loss. This situation requires easily accessible hearing screening, diagnostics and intervention programmes in the living environment, i.e., in nurseries, schools, workplaces and homes.
