Low Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index Predicts Unfavorable Outcomes in Older Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss Patients

open access: yesJournal of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery
Importance Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) is associated with metabolic syndrome, central obesity, and albumin level. Malnutrition may adversely affect recovery in older patients with SSNHL, yet its clinical relevance remains underexplored ...

Use of otoacoustic emissions to improve outcomes and reduce disparities in a community preschool hearing screening program.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
IntroductionHearing loss substantially impacts pediatric development, and early identification improves outcomes. While intervening before school-entry is critical to optimize learning, early-childhood hearing screening practices are highly variable ...

Continual Learning for Multimodal Data Fusion of a Soft Gripper

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Models trained on a single data modality often struggle to generalize when exposed to a different modality. This work introduces a continual learning algorithm capable of incrementally learning different data modalities by leveraging both class‐incremental and domain‐incremental learning scenarios in an artificial environment where labeled data is ...

Auditory–Tactile Congruence for Synthesis of Adaptive Pain Expressions in RoboPatients

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
In this work, we explore auditory–tactile congruence for synthesizing adaptive vocal pain expressions in robopatients. Using a robopatient platform that integrates vocal pain sounds with palpation forces, we conducted 7680 trials across 20 participants.

Prediction of hearing aid cognitive outcomes in age-related hearing loss

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience
Although the phenomena underlying cognitive decline and dementia are complex, there is growing evidence suggesting that degraded sensory inputs caused by age-related hearing loss may play a central role in accelerating cognitive decline in older individuals.
