Introduction: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex condition impacting social communication, behavior, and interests. ASD affects 1 in 100 children globally, with a higher prevalence in boys. Auditory disorders, including hyperacusis, are common in ASD, yet the correlation between Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) wave latencies and ASD severity, especially with hyperacusis, is under-researched.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates mastoid volume and dimensions in patients with unilateral microtia using High-Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) for better surgical planning.
  • A retrospective analysis was conducted of HRCT mastoid scans from patients, measuring parameters such as mastoid volume, height, and surface area between affected and unaffected ears.
  • Results showed significant reductions in mastoid air cell volume, bone volume, height, and surface areas on the affected side, providing important information for surgeons in reconstructive surgery preparation.

Introduction: This prospective cohort study aims to investigate the hearing dynamics and the changes in the central auditory pathways in infants with congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) infection.

Materials And Methods: cCMV-infected neonates aged ≤3 weeks old were recruited and underwent clinical and laboratory tests to detect viremia and symptomatic infection, hearing examinations at three and six months of age, and radiological imaging of brain auditory pathways using diffusion tensor imaging.

Results: From 26 eligible infants (52 ears), we detected symptomatic infection in nine (34.
