Partitioned Internal Auditory Canal: Association With Cochlear Aperture Anomalies
Partitioned internal auditory canal (IAC), defined by a bony septum separating the facial nerve from the cochleovestibular nerve, occurs significantly more often in ears with stenotic or atretic cochlear aperture. ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the association between partitioned internal auditory canal (IAC) and other inner ear abnormalities ...

Synchrotron‐Based Deep Learning Network of the Inner Ear: Development and Expert Validation
A deep learning network to automatically segment the inner ear from preoperative clinical scans was developed using synchrotron‐radiation phase contrast imaging (SR‐PCI). On an unseen test set, the network significantly outperformed seven expert otologists/radiologists, the mean expert segmentation, and a simultaneous truth and performance level ...

Spatiotemporal Medicare Reimbursement Trends and Economic Clusters in Otologic/Neurotologic Surgery
Despite a 16.2% increase in Medicare‐reimbursed otologic/neurotologic procedural volume from 2012 to 2024, inflation‐adjusted reimbursement per service declined by 29.1%, resulting in reduced aggregate spending over time. Shapley decomposition demonstrated that reimbursement erosion, rather than decreased utilization, was the primary driver of spending

Sentio Bone‐Conduction Implant: Early Outcomes in Patients With Conductive or Mixed Hearing Loss
This study evaluated the initial clinical outcomes, safety, and audiological performance of the Sentio active bone‐conduction implant in patients with conductive or mixed hearing loss. Implantation resulted in significant improvements in hearing thresholds, speech recognition, speech perception in noise, and patient‐reported hearing benefit, with no ...

Advances in GPCRs Associated With Wnt Signaling Within the Auditory System
ABSTRACT G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) that interact with the Wnt signaling pathway are pivotal for auditory system homeostasis, as they orchestrate inner ear development, hair cell (HC) regeneration, and hearing preservation. Frizzled (FZD) receptors, the core Wnt‐related GPCRs, bind Wnt ligands and co‐receptors (e.g., LRP5/6) to activate both ...
