Multicargo Porous Cochlear Electrode Coating for Antifibrosis After Cochlear Implantation
This study presents a novel porous drug‐loading coating for cochlear electrodes, utilizing MA‐PDMS infused with GelMA hydrogel containing dexamethasone and MXene nanoparticles. The coating enhances biocompatibility, enables sustained drug release, reduces fibrosis, and preserves residual hearing post‐CI.

Post‐Translational Modifications in Cilia and Ciliopathies
This review synthesizes current understanding of post‐translational modifications (PTMs) in ciliary proteins and emphasizes their roles in ciliary formation, homeostasis, and signaling. This review also discusses the implication of PTM dysregulation in ciliopathies and explores therapeutic strategies targeting PTM‐modifying enzymes.

A Framework for Speechreading Acquisition Tools [PDF]
At least 360 million people worldwide have disabling hearing loss that frequently causes difficulties in day-to-day conversations. Hearing aids often fail to offer enough benefits and have low adoption rates. However, people with hearing loss find that speechreading can improve their understanding during conversation.
