One of the main causes of the of the inner ear pathology is a viral infection including SARS-CoV-2 virus. On the other hand the psycho-emotional state of patients also affects patients with hearing loss, tinnitus and dizziness, and an increase in depression and anxiety was revealed during the period of self-isolation. Goal of our study was to analyze cochleovestibular pathology in patients with COVID-19.

- Patients recovering from COVID-19 often experience olfactory disorders, with a majority showing varying degrees of smell impairment, such as anosmia (loss of smell) and hyposmia (reduced smell).
- A study involving 40 individuals revealed that those with smell disorders also had higher rates of anxiety and depression, especially among those with a normal sense of smell.
- The findings suggest that olfactory issues may be linked to both the olfactory and trigeminal nerve systems, highlighting the need for psychological support for affected patients.
Article Synopsis
- Vestibular neuritis is a common condition affecting balance, requiring effective diagnosis and treatment strategies at various stages of the disease.
- A study evaluated the effectiveness of different clinical methods for assessing vestibular function in patients at various recovery stages, finding significant variability in when patients regained function.
- Key findings show that certain tests are more effective in the early stages, while others retain sensitivity during the later recovery phases, suggesting a need for tailored diagnostic approaches based on recovery timing.
Modern literature data are presented on the choice of a drug for hormonal therapy in acute neurosensory hearing loss of various origins, the doses used for systemic therapy, the features and methods of intratympanic administration of glucocorticosteroids, and the evaluation of the effectiveness of treatment with this group of drugs.

We evaluated the results of caloric and video head impulse (vHIT) tests in 76 patients who met the clinical criteria for significant Meniere's disease (AAO-HNS modified by the Barany Society, 2015). Dissociation of the results of caloric and vHIT tests is observed in the majority (74%) of patients with MD: at normal gain, according to vHIT data, hypofunction of peripheral vestibular structures is recorded according to the caloric test (KASL 47 ± 7.
