Impact of Interprofessional Simulation on Health Students' Self‐Reported Attitudes Towards Older Adults: A Pre‐Post Questionnaire‐Based Study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Aging simulation may promote the knowledge and skills of healthcare providers and students. We hypothesized that interprofessional simulation related to the care of older adults could influence healthcare students' self‐reported attitudes towards older patients. Materials and Methods Interprofessional role‐play simulations dedicated

Presbycusis

open access: yesIndian Journal of Otology, 2021
Presbycusis is aging deafness, progressive decrease in hearing, high frequency usually associated with tinnitus. This is due to the release of free radicals in cellular metabolism leading to cell death of cochlear hair cells, stria vascularis, and sensorineural degeneration.

Psychometric properties of the Ekman 60‐Faces Test in clinical populations: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesJournal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Ekman 60‐Faces Test is widely used to assess facial emotion recognition, but information on its validity and reliability is scarce. This systematic review evaluated the reporting of psychometric properties across clinical populations. A total of 159 studies (n = 5978) were included: case–control (n = 109), single cohort (n = 37) and review/

Connexin 30 deletion exacerbates cochlear senescence and age-related hearing loss

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Pathogenic mutations in the Gjb2 and Gjb6 genes, encoding connexin 26 (Cx26) and connexin 30 (Cx30), respectively, have been linked to the most frequent monogenic hearing impairment, nonsyndromic hearing loss, and deafness DFNB1.

The tympanic covering layer contributes to basilar membrane elasticity potentially influencing human frequency resolution and speech perception

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 249, Issue 3, Page 528-543, September 2026.
In this study we show for the first time that the human basilar membrane contains elastin produced by the so‐called tympanic covering layer. It is believed to play an important functional role in human cochlear tuning, particularly low frequencies linked to our remarkable speech and music perception.

Hearing Loss in Adults With Diabetes and Prediabetes: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesDiabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews, Volume 42, Issue 5, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Diabetes impairs hearing through microvascular damage and neuropathy, yet the prevalence of moderate‐to‐severe hearing loss (≥ 40 dB HL) remains inadequately explored. Variations by age, diabetes duration, and socioeconomic factors are inadequately characterised. This systematic review quantified the prevalence and comparative risk of moderate‐
