Vibrant Soundbridge implant in a patient with Fanconi anemia

open access: yesActa Oto-Laryngologica Case Reports, 2020
The Vibrant Soundbridge implant with a short process coupler placed at the short process of the incus has been successfully used to treat conductive hearing loss. Coupling of the floating mass transducer of the Vibrant Soundbridge to the short process of

Discovery of Novel Materials with Giant Dielectric Constants via First‐Principles Phonon Calculations and Machine Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
We discovered novel materials with giant dielectric constants by combining first‐principles phonon calculations and machine learning. Screening 525 perovskites identified six candidates. RbNbO3 was synthesized under pressure and showed ε ≈ 800–1000. This validates our framework as a powerful tool for high‐performance dielectric materials discovery.

A perspective from the Mesozoic: Evolutionary changes of the mammalian skull and their influence on feeding efficiency and high‐frequency hearing

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

Preoperative semi-automatic segmentation in incus defects

open access: yes
Objectives: Long-term success rate of partial ossicular replacement prosthesis (PORP) is low. Three-dimensional (3D) imaging technology to identify and model ossicular chain defects may improve this rate.

Variation in parrot jaw musculature

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Interspecific morphological differences in some superficial jaw muscles of parrots. Abstract Psittaciformes, the order encompassing parrots and their relatives, are highly diverse and generally known for having a strong beaks used for multiple behaviors. The muscles related to the masticatory apparatus should reflect this functional complexity; however,

Cautionary Findings for the Presence of Facial Canal Dehiscence During Cholesteatoma Surgery

open access: yesEar, Nose & Throat Journal, 2020
Our aim was to investigate the relationship between facial canal dehiscence (FCD) and surgical findings and procedures in patients with cholesteatoma. A total of 186 patients (118 males, 39.2 ± 15 years) who underwent surgery for advanced cholesteatoma ...

Evaluation of IHH, PTCH1, and SMO protein immunohistochemistry in the human mandibular condyle at fetal stages from 30 to 80 mm greatest length

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluated the morphogenesis of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in human fetuses during the third month of gestation through the analysis of immunohistochemistry for the proteins Indian Hedgehog (IHH), Patched‐1 (PTCH1), and Smoothened (SMO).

A Start Codon Variant in NOG Underlies Symphalangism and Ossicular Chain Malformations Affecting Both the Incus and the Stapes

open access: yesCase Reports in Genetics, 2019
We performed exome sequencing to evaluate the underlying molecular cause of a patient with bilateral conductive hearing loss due to multiple ossicular abnormalities as well as symphalangism of the fifth digits. This leads to the identification of a novel

A Case of Incus Vibroplasty: Postoperative Changes in Residual Hearing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In patients with mild to severe hearing loss, conventional hearing aids offer limited benefits and several problems with feedback and cosmesis. Middle ear implants are a feasible option for patients with moderate to severe hearing loss who are unable to ...
