Mitochondrial tRNAGlu 14687A>G May Be A Novel Mutation for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
We identified a novel mitochondrial tRNAGlu 14687A>G mutation in a Han Chinese pedigree with diabetes; the m.14687A>G mutation occurred at a conserved nucleotide of tRNAGlu, which was important for tRNA structure and function. Using a cybrid cell model, we found that mutant cells exhibited much more severe mitochondrial dysfunctions than control cells,

Audiovestibular Findings in Gaucher Disease Types I and III: Evidence of Vestibular Involvement in GD1. [PDF]

J Inherit Metab Dis
ABSTRACT Gaucher disease (GD), the most prevalent lysosomal storage disorder, is characterized by varying levels of systemic and neurological involvement. This study aims to investigate audiovestibular system involvement in patients with Gaucher disease type I (GD1) and type III (GD3) using audiometric and vestibular evaluations.

Work-related noise exposure in a cohort of patients with chronic tinnitus: analysis of demographic and audiological characteristics [PDF]

, 2017
Work-related noise exposure is one of the major factors contributing to the development of adult-onset hearing loss and tinnitus. The aim of this study was to analyze, in patients with chronic tinnitus and long-term occupational noise exposure, (A ...

Hearing Loss and Its Relation to Loneliness and Depression—A Population‐Based Cohort Study

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study investigated the relationship between hearing loss, loneliness, and depression using data from the Gutenberg Health Study. It found that hearing loss is significantly associated with higher levels of loneliness and depressive symptoms, with severe to complete hearing loss markedly increasing risks for loneliness and mild to severe hearing ...

Effect of noise on transient-evoked otoacoustic emissions and pure-tone screening audiometry [PDF]

, 2014
Currently, the American Speech-Language Hearing Association (ASHA) recommends pure-tone audiometry as the preferred audiometric screening method of school-aged children; however, background noise is often present and can result in high referral rate. The

The psychophysics of absolute threshold and signal duration: A probabilistic approach [PDF]

, 2011
The absolute threshold for a tone depends on its duration; longer tones have lower thresholds. This effect has traditionally been explained in terms of ?temporal integration? involving the summation of energy or perceptual information over time.

Tactile responses in pure-tone audiometry: a saccule function? [PDF]

European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2013
As generally accepted, low-frequency bone-conduction thresholds obtained in the 35–55 dB range are often tactile responses and not due to auditory stimulation [4]. Since it is recently known that low-frequency airand bone-conducted stimuli can be used to test otolithic function also in humans [2], we wondered if such ‘‘false-positive’’ boneconduction ...

Comparing Tinnitus Suppression in Asymmetric Hearing Loss and Single‐Sided Deafness: Cochlear Versus Bone Conduction Implants

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
While both cochlear implants and bone conduction implants improve tinnitus symptoms, cochlear implants provide significantly greater suppression across multiple tinnitus severity measures and a higher cure rate, positioning it as the preferred option for tinnitus management in asymmetric hearing loss and single‐sided deafness patients.
