The Impact of Age and Duration of Cochlear Implant in a Congenital Deaf Population: An ERP Study [PDF]
Objective: It is well known that patients with Cochlear Implant (CI) have a large inter-individual variability in linguistic and auditory performances. This can be related to individual auditory processing abilities and integrity of auditory system from ...

Objective Assessment of Surgical Operative Performance by Observational Clinical Human Reliability Analysis (OC-HRA):A Systematic Review [PDF]
Background: Both morbidity and mortality data (MMD) and learning curves (LCs) do not provide information on the nature of intraoperative errors and their mechanisms when these adversely impact on patient outcome.

XIAP Stabilizes DDRGK1 to Promote ER‐Phagy and Protects Against Noise‐Induced Hearing Loss
Mechanism of GAS‐mediated protection against noise‐induced hearing loss (NIHL). Noise exposure activates the ATF4/eIF2α axis, downregulating XIAP and promoting DDRGK1 degradation, thereby inhibiting ER‐phagy and leading to hair cell (HC) death. GAS treatment rescues XIAP and DDRGK1 expression, reactivating ER‐phagy to mitigate HC loss, synaptic damage,

Notch2 Directs aTreg Cell Fate toward Immunoregulation or Inflammatory Pyroptosis
Schematic illustration showing that the Notch2 intracellular domain (NICD2) facilitates pyroptosis resistance in activated Tregs through the RREB1/Foxo1 signaling pathway. In addition, Notch2‐mediated pyroptosis resistance in activated Tregs promotes immunoregulatory capacity, thereby attenuating Th2‐driven inflammatory responses in allergic rhinitis ...

Connexin 26 Functions as a Direct Transcriptional Regulator During the Cochlea Development
Connexin26 can not only form intercellular channels that mediate rapid communication on the cell membrane, but also enter the nucleus as a transcription factor to directly regulate the transcription of nuclear genes. In the developing cochlea, Cx26 can control the maturation of the molecular scissor ADAM10 by regulating the transcription of TspanC8 ...

Germ‐free (GF) mice receiving fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) reveal microbiota‐dependent effects on auditory aging. Integrated metagenomic, metabolomic and proteomic profiling maps gut–inner ear network and highlights 5‐hydroxytryptophan (5‐HTP) as a microbiota‐linked metabolic hub in age‐related hearing loss (ARHL).
