Adjunctive Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy or Intratympanic Steroids in Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss?
Sudden sensorineural hearing loss is traditionally treated with steroids, either orally and/or via intratympanic injections, and hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) has resurged in popularity as an adjunctive therapy. The study has not found any additional treatment benefit with adjunctive concurrent HBOT; however, HBOT might be of value to patients ...

Effects of Deep Brain Stimulation on Adductor Laryngeal Dystonia
This study evaluated how globus pallidus interna (GPi) versus ventral intermediate nucleus (VIM) deep brain stimulation (DBS) affects objective voice measures in patients with adductor laryngeal dystonia. GPi‐DBS was associated with greater improvements in voicing, voice breaks, and intensity modulation, while VIM‐DBS showed greater improvement in ...

Attrition in Cochlear Implant Research: Sociodemographic, Audiologic, and Performance Variables
In a retrospective review of attrition patterns for participants in a clinical research study, sociodemographic variables were not significantly different between those who elected to withdraw and those who completed the study. Those in the withdrawal group had poorer low‐frequency residual hearing, were less likely to be electric‐acoustic stimulation ...

Seabed classification in the Gulf of Alaska from acoustic surveys using deep learning
Abstract High‐resolution mapping of seafloor habitats has wide applications for fisheries, conservation efforts, offshore infrastructure planning, mineral extraction, and scientific modeling. This study leverages existing widespread single‐beam acoustic data and machine learning to create habitat maps for the Gulf of Alaska at a spatial resolution of ...

This work introduces two types of bound states in the continuum (BICs) and their merging in a waveguide‐resonator system, which significantly enhances the quality factor (Q$Q$). Benefiting from the high‐Q$Q$ characteristics of quasi‐BICs, a sensitivity‐tunable complex permittivity sensor is developed based on this system, achieving improvements of 93 ...

Optical Skyrmions with Tunable or Reconfigurable Topology Using Spin‐Decoupled Metaoptics
The work introduces advanced optical elements capable of generating and dynamically reconfiguring complex light patterns known as optical skyrmions. By precisely shaping light polarization at the nanoscale, a single engineered metasurface can generate and manipulate robust and tunable polarization textures in an efficient and scalable way.

Abstract Background Bilateral globus pallidus internus deep brain stimulation (GPi‐DBS) is a proven safe and effective treatment in certain forms of idiopathic or inherited dystonia (ID/IN). Its effects in acquired dystonia such as in dyskinetic cerebral palsy (DCP) however vary widely.
