Article Synopsis
- Idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) is a common and serious condition that can impact hearing and cause symptoms like vertigo, with uncertain recovery outcomes.
- This study involved 35 patients with SSNHL, assessing their hearing and vestibular function using audiometry, electronystagmography (ENG), and caloric tests, while administering standard treatments such as steroids.
- Results showed that patients without vertigo had better recovery, and abnormal ENG and caloric test results correlated with poorer hearing outcomes, suggesting that testing vestibular function could predict recovery and improve patient counseling.
This study explored whether anthropometric measures influence magnitude of skin cooling following exposure to whole body cryotherapy (WBC). Height, weight, body fat percentage, and lean mass were measured in 18 male and 14 female participants. Body surface area, body surface area to mass ratio, body mass index, fat-free mass index, and fat mass index were calculated.

During the past year, the authors have used two anterior segment video-based digital image capture systems. These systems allow instantaneous image capture and have both diagnostic value to practitioners and educational value to patients.
