The State of High‐Resolution Imaging of the Human Inner Ear: A Look Into the Black Box

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
High‐resolution imaging of the cochlea is challenged by numerous unique aspects of this organ, where sensorineural cells, crucial for hearing, are too small for conventional modalities like magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography. This article reviews current imaging techniques, emerging technologies, and innovations aimed at improving ...

Tumor necrosis factor-α mediated inflammation versus apoptosis in age-related hearing loss

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
An almost universal phenomenon occurring during aging is a state of chronic, low-grade, sterile inflammation. Inflammation is a crucial contributor to various age-related pathologies and natural processes in aging tissues. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α),

THE RELATIONSHIP OF PRESBYCUSIS WITH COGNITIVE FUNCTIONS

open access: yesThe Turkish Journal of Geriatrics, 2020
© 2020, Geriatrics Society. All rights reserved.Introduction: Presbycusis, age-related hearing loss, is one of the most common diseases in geriatric patients. The present study aims to achieve early diagnosis of presbycusis, prevent cognitive disorders, avoid social isolation, and provide guidance for the treatment.

Long‐Term Cochlear Implant Sensitivity in Patients With Far Advanced Otosclerosis

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study aimed to evaluate mid‐ and long‐term cochlear implant fitting in otosclerosis patients compared to a control group. It suggested significant tissue remodeling at the cochlear apex in otosclerosis patients, likely increasing resistance to electrical currents delivered by the implant.

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.

Severe Hearing Loss in the World's First Successfully Captive‐Born Yangtze Finless Porpoise: Impact of High Underwater Sound Exposure and Congenital Hearing Disorders

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The audiogram of the world's first successfully captive‐born Yangtze finless porpoise was on average 40 dB higher than conspecifics. Congenital hearing disorders and noise exposure may be the primary cause of porpoise's hearing loss. ABSTRACT Aquariums globally have seen significant growth in recent decades.

Effects of Aging and Adult-Onset Hearing Loss on Cortical Auditory Regions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Hearing loss is a common feature in human aging. It has been argued that dysfunctions in central processing are important contributing factors to hearing loss during older age. Aging also has well documented consequences for neural structure and function,

The Usefulness of ETDQ‐7 Score in Assessing ETD

open access: yesClinical Otolaryngology, EarlyView.
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

Effects of mitochondrial mutations on hearing and cochlear pathology with age [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Age-related hearing loss is a multi-factorial process involving genetic and environmental factors, including exposure to noise and ototoxic agents, as well as pathological processes.
