AAV2.7m8 serotype combined with the gfaABC1D promoter targets infection of supporting cells (SCs). AAV2.7m8‐gfaABC1D‐Gjb2 administration to mice results in excessive immune responses. The combination of AAV2.7m8‐gfaABC1D‐Gjb2 with dexamethasone (DEX) shows a synergistic effect and enhances the gene therapy effect in a conditional Cx26 null mice model ...

Clarity: Machine Learning Challenges to Revolutionise Hearing Device Processing [PDF]
In the Clarity project, we will run a series of machine learning challenges to revolutionise speech processing for hearing devices. Over five years, there will be three paired challenges. Each pair will consist of a competition focussed on hearing-device processing ("enhancement") and another focussed on speech perception modelling ("prediction").

Interpreting Audiograms with Multi-stage Neural Networks [PDF]
Audiograms are a particular type of line charts representing individuals' hearing level at various frequencies. They are used by audiologists to diagnose hearing loss, and further select and tune appropriate hearing aids for customers. There have been several projects such as Autoaudio that aim to accelerate this process through means of machine ...

In Our Own Voice: The Use of Focus Groups to Describe Mental Health Care Experiences of Persons with Hearing Loss in Allegheny County [PDF]
Disparities in access to mental health care for persons with hearing loss are significant public health problems. Despite federal mandates such as the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Deaf, Deafblind and hard-of hearing populations remain greatly ...

Tullio phenomenon in superior semicircular canal dehiscence (SSCD) [PDF]
A 68-year-old woman presented with worsening sound-induced vertigo (Tullio phenomenon) and left-sided hearing loss. Weber's test lateralised to the affected ear and audiography confirmed mild conductive hearing loss.

Adding Insult to Injury: Cochlear Nerve Degeneration after “Temporary” Noise-Induced Hearing Loss
Overexposure to intense sound can cause temporary or permanent hearing loss. Postexposure recovery of threshold sensitivity has been assumed to indicate reversal of damage to delicate mechano-sensory and neural structures of the inner ear and no ...

Predicting and Explaining Hearing Aid Usage Using Encoder-Decoder with Attention Mechanism and SHAP [PDF]
It is essential to understand the personal, behavioral, environmental, and other factors that correlate with optimal hearing aid fitting and hearing aid users' experiences in order to improve hearing loss patient satisfaction and quality of life, as well as reduce societal and financial burdens.
