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

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.

An animal model for presbycusis [PDF]
AbstractCochlear microphonics (CM) and masked and unmasked VIIIth nerve action potentials (AP) were measured in rats at ages of one, six, 12, 18 and 24 months in order to explore an animal model for presbycusis. These rats were raised in quiet surroundings and were given no antibiotics.

ABSTRACT Background Hearing and visual impairments are common in individuals with Down syndrome (DS), yet it remains unclear whether sensory impairments are associated with cognitive and behavioural functioning such as language, memory and socialisation. This literature review examines those associations.

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.
