Longitudinal Evaluation of Otoacoustic Emissions as a Screening Tool for High‐Frequency Hearing Loss in Adolescents

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 175, Issue 2, Page 480-486, August 2026.
Abstract Objective To investigate the association between distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) signal‐to‐noise ratios (SNRs) and pure‐tone audiometry (PTA) thresholds in adolescents, both cross‐sectionally at age 18 and longitudinally by evaluating whether DPOAE SNRs at age 13 predict high‐frequency hearing loss (HFHL) at age 18.

Staging concept for aging management: Definition, mechanism, and coping strategies

open access: yesVIEW, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
We divided the overall aging stage into “pre‐aging”, “aging compensation”, and “aging disability”. For each stage, we delineate the clinical presentations, biological phenomena, theoretical underpinnings, and key management priorities. Abstract Aging, as a gradual and largely irreversible biological process, characterized by declining organismal ...

Cultural geography of heat: Artistic experiments with heat’s animacies

open access: yesGeographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 3, August 2026.
A sustained, cultural geographical engagement with heat is long overdue. I advance this agenda by engaging with the work of contemporary artists. Artists are responding to uneven conditions of global heating by exploring heat’s animacies: how heat interweaves with the practices and textures of life.

Noise Exposure in a Dental Teaching Hospital: Investigations and Recommendations for Dental Personnel

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Dental Education, Volume 30, Issue 3, Page 1046-1051, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Exposure to excessive noise is a highly preventable occupational risk, with irreversible side effects that may negatively impact an individual's quality of life, such as noise‐induced hearing loss and tinnitus. Dental personnel may be at particular risk due to their exposure to high levels of noise from dental equipment.
