Blood Labyrinth Barrier Waste Clearance as Assessed by GBCAs on MRI: A Scoping Review. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective The discovery of the glymphatic system in the brain and eye has raised the hypothesis of a similar system in the inner ear. Dysfunctional lymph fluid dynamics may contribute to inner ear conditions such as Meniere's Disease (MD) and endolymphatic hydrops (EH).

Predicting ecology and hearing sensitivities in Parapontoporia—An extinct long‐snouted dolphin
Abstract Analyses of the cetacean (whale and dolphin) inner ear provide glimpses into the ecology and evolution of extinct and extant groups. The paleoecology of the long‐snouted odontocete (toothed whale) group, Parapontoporia, is primarily marine with its depositional context also suggesting freshwater tolerance.

Intraspecific variation of cochlear morphology in bowhead and beluga whales
Abstract The bony labyrinth of the petrosal bone, a distinctive feature of mammal skulls, is often identified in micro‐computed tomography imaging to infer species' physiological and ecological traits. When done as part of a comparative study, one individual specimen is normally considered representative of a species, and intraspecific variation is ...

A Core Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy Syllabus for Physical Therapy Student Education
ABSTRACT Head, neck, and neuroanatomy are essential components of physical therapy education due to their broad clinical applications. Detailed syllabi exist for medical students, yet none have been developed for physical therapy. This study aimed to produce an International Federation of Associations of Anatomists core head, neck, and neuroanatomy ...

Ipsilateral cochlear implantation in cases with vestibular schwannoma
Abstract Background Vestibular schwannomas (VS) are the most common tumors in the cerebellopontine angle, which can lead to hearing loss, particularly following tumor resection. For patients with bilateral VS associated with neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2), hearing loss significantly undermines their quality of life.

The Current Situation and Development of Endoscopic Ear Surgery in China
ABSTRACT Endoscopic ear surgery has been widely performed in China since 2015 due to the development and rapid popularization of endoscopic technology. Due to the relative shortness of the auditory meatus, only a fixed endoscope is required in many cases, rather than a motion similar to a nasal endoscope, and uncontrollable bleeding is virtually non ...
