Performance and Reliability Evaluation of an Automated Bone-Conduction Audiometry Using Machine Learning

open access: yesTrends in Hearing
To date, pure-tone audiometry remains the gold standard for clinical auditory testing. However, pure-tone audiometry is time-consuming and only provides a discrete estimate of hearing acuity. Here, we aim to address these two main drawbacks by developing

Risk Factors and Predictive Model for Otitis Media With Effusion After Radiotherapy in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the impact of different radiation fields on the risk of otitis media with effusion (OME) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients and to develop a nomogram to identify high‐risk patients after radiotherapy. Methods Clinical data were collected from 170 NPC patients who underwent radiotherapy at Peking Union Medical ...

Prediction of hearing thresholds: Comparison of cortical evoked response audiometry and auditory steady state response audiometry techniques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The present study evaluated how well auditory steady state response (ASSR) and tone burst cortical evoked response audiometry (CERA) thresholds predict behavioral thresholds in the same participants. A total of 63 ears were evaluated.

Dopamine: The Essential Bridge Mediating Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Hippocampus‐Dependent Learning and Memory Impairments

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnea is a clinical syndrome that triggers a series of pathophysiologic changes, including disturbed sleep architecture, chronic intermittent hypoxia and hypercapnia, and ultimately severe cognitive dysfunction. The hippocampus plays a key role in various cognitive processes such as learning and memory.
