Psychogenic hearing loss in children and adolescents. Diagnosis and psychotherapy.
Ann Med
December 2025
Department of Pediatric Otolaryngology, Centre of Postgraduate Medical Education, Warsaw, Poland.
Introduction: Psychogenic hearing loss is often neglected in the differential diagnosis of hearing disorders. In a difficult diagnostic process and treatment of psychogenic hearing loss disorder, the close cooperation of the audiologist, psychologist, patient, and his family is required. The study aimed to improve the knowledge and understanding of psychogenic hearing loss, establish a differential diagnosis in audiological tests in children, determine diagnostic procedures and finally apply adequate therapeutic procedures.

Int J Audiol
January 2025
Department of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University, Xi'an, China.
Objective: This study investigates the relationship between Meniere's disease (MD) duration and both hearing thresholds and vestibular dysfunction.
Design: Retrospective cohort study. First, the relationships between MD duration and pure-tone audiometry thresholds for each frequency, the canal paresis (CP) ratio, and the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) gain were analysed.
Introduction: This study aims to investigate the impact of auditory input on postural control in young adult cochlear implant users with profound sensorineural hearing loss. The research explores the relationship between auditory cues and static postural stability in individuals with hearing impairment.
Methods: 34 young adult cochlear implant users, consisting of 15 males and 19 females aged 18-35 years, underwent various balance tests, including the modified Clinical Tests of Sensory Interaction on Balance (mCTSIB) and the Unilateral Stance Test (UST), under different auditory conditions: (1) White noise stimulus present with the sound processor activated, (2) Ambient noise present with the sound processor activated, and (3) Sound processor deactivated.
Degree of Preoperative Bilateral Hearing Affects Patient-Reported Outcome in Primary Stapedotomy.
Otol Neurotol
January 2025
Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head, and Neck Surgery, Institute of Clinical Sciences, Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, Gothenburg, Sweden.
Article Synopsis
- The study examines how unilateral versus bilateral hearing impairments affect patient satisfaction and hearing outcomes after stapedotomy surgery.
- Over 90% of patients reported hearing improvements post-surgery, but those with unilateral impairment had lower satisfaction compared to those with bilateral impairments.
- Tinnitus was more prevalent in patients with unilateral hearing issues, indicating additional challenges they faced after the procedure.
Angiotensin-Receptor Blockers Prevent Vestibular Schwannoma-Associated Hearing Loss.
Otol Neurotol
February 2025
Edwin L. Steele Laboratories, Department of Radiation Oncology, Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts.
Background Introduction: Vestibular schwannoma (VS) tumors typically present with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). Losartan has recently demonstrated prevention of tumor-associated SNHL in a mouse model of VS through suppression of inflammatory and pro-fibrotic factors, and the current study investigates this association in humans.
Methods: This is a retrospective study of patients with unilateral VS and hypertension followed with sequential audiometry at a tertiary referral hospital from January 1994 to June 2023.
