Background: The intraoperative measurements are essential steps in cochlear implant (CI) surgery for confirming correct electrode placement.
Objectives: To examine the intraoperative impedance and electrically evoked action potential (ECAP) measurement results of cochlear implant (CI) users with normal cochlear anatomy (NCA) and to compare them with CI users with inner ear malformations (IEM).
Material And Methods: This retrospective study included intraoperative data of 300 ears from 258 individuals using Medel and Cochlear (Nucleus) CI devices.
Aims And Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the presence, type, and severity of hearing losses in individuals with Duane Retraction Syndrome (DRS), and to ascertain if there are anomalies in the auditory pathways at the brainstem level in DRS, believed to arise from aberrant interaction between cranial nerves and brainstem nuclei.
Study Design: Cross-sectional observational study.
Setting: Tertiary referral centre.
Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS), a condition in dogs that leads to eye damage due to reduced tear production, particularly in Aksaray Malakli breed dogs.
- Researchers evaluated fifty healthy dogs showing signs of eye irritation and used tests to measure tear production and film stability.
- Results indicated that dogs with third eyelid gland prolapse had lower tear production and film stability, highlighting a need for further research to manage KCS in this breed.
Aims: To examine the psychometric properties of the Stirling Antenatal Anxiety Scale (SAAS), developed by Sinesi et al., which assesses the level of anxiety of pregnant women in the prenatal period, in the Turkish culture, and to conduct a validity and reliability study.
Methods: This study had a methodological approach, with a cross-sectional and descriptive research design.
While some clinics have adopted abbreviated neoadjuvant treatment for HER2-positive breast cancer, there remains a shortage of comprehensive clinical data to support this practice. This is a retrospective, multicenter study. A total of 142 patients were included in the study who are HER2-positive breast cancer, aged ≤ 65 years, with left ventricular ejection fraction ≥ 50%, received neoadjuvant chemotherapy and underwent surgery at 10 different oncology centers in Türkiye between October 2016 and December 2022.
