Weak Middle-Ear-Muscle Reflex in Humans with Noise-Induced Tinnitus and Normal Hearing May Reflect Cochlear Synaptopathy

open access: yeseNeuro, 2017
Chronic tinnitus is a prevalent hearing disorder, and yet no successful treatments or objective diagnostic tests are currently available. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the presence of tinnitus and the strength of the ...

Single-Cell Transcriptomes Reveal a Complex Cellular Landscape in the Middle Ear and Differential Capacities for Acute Response to Infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Single-cell transcriptomics was used to profile cells of the normal murine middle ear. Clustering analysis of 6770 transcriptomes identified 17 cell clusters corresponding to distinct cell types: five epithelial, three stromal, three lymphocyte, two ...

Deformation of avian middle ear structures under static pressure loads, and potential regulation mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Static pressure changes can alter the configuration and mechanical behavior of the chain of ossicles, which may affect the acoustic transfer function. In mammals, the Eustachian tube plays an important role in restoring ambient middle ear pressure, hence

Wideband Acoustic Immittance in Children [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
As wideband absorbance (WBA) gains popularity, it is essential to understand the impact of different middle ear pathologies on the absorbance patterns as a function of frequency in children with various middle ear pathologies.

Immunohistochemical localization of d‐β‐aspartic acid in congenital and acquired middle ear cholesteatoma

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, 2022
Objective/Hypothesis Middle ear cholesteatoma is characterized by abnormal growth of the keratinizing squamous epithelium of the temporal bone. d‐β‐aspartic acid is the major isomer of d‐aspartic acid found in elderly tissue.

De novo topology optimization of Total Ossicular Replacement Prostheses [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 2020, 103, 103541, 2020
Conductive hearing loss, due to middle ear pathologies or traumas, affects more than 5% of the population worldwide. Passive prostheses to replace the ossicular chain mainly rely on piston-like titanium and/or hydroxyapatite devices, which in the long term suffer from extrusion.

Major evolutionary transitions and innovations: the tympanic middle ear

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2017
One of the most amazing transitions and innovations during the evolution of mammals was the formation of a novel jaw joint and the incorporation of the original jaw joint into the middle ear to create the unique mammalian three bone/ossicle ear.

Inner Ear Therapeutics: An Overview of Middle Ear Delivery

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2019
There are a variety of methods to access the inner ear and many of these methods depend on utilizing the middle ear as a portal. In this approach the middle ear can be used as a passive receptacle, as part of an active drug delivery system, or simply as ...
