The Usefulness of ETDQ‐7 Score in Assessing ETD
ABSTRACT Introduction The ETDQ‐7 questionnaire has been validated for diagnosing Eustachian tube dysfunction (ETD) and a minimal clinically important difference (MCID) of > 3.5 has been suggested. We aim to assess the use of ETDQ‐7 for assessing ETD and a potential correlation between ETDQ‐7 and the Sino‐Nasal Outcome Test 22 (SNOT‐22). Methods ETD was

D‐galactose (D‐gal) induced inner ear hair cell senescence by inhibiting TFEB transcription. RONIN/HCF1 promotes TFEB transcription to prevent cochlear HCs from D‐gal‐induced senescence through autophagy activation. Abstract Age‐related hearing loss is characterized by senescent inner ear hair cells (HCs) and reduced autophagy.
