Each year over half a million people experience permanent hearing loss caused by treatment with therapeutic drugs with ototoxic side effects. There is a major unmet clinical need for therapies that protect against this hearing loss without reducing the therapeutic efficacy of these lifesaving drugs. At least 17 clinical trials evaluating 10 therapeutics are currently underway for therapies aimed at preventing aminoglycoside- and/or cisplatin-induced ototoxicity. This review describes the preclinical and clinical development of each of these approaches, provides updates on the status of ongoing trials, and highlights the importance of appropriate outcome measures in trial design and the value of reporting criteria in the dissemination of results.

Objective: Hearing loss (HL) is associated with depression, but existing datasets are limited by the type of data available for both hearing and mental health conditions. The purpose of this study is to determine if there is an association between HL and depressive disorders within a large bi-institutional electronic health record (EHR) system containing more granular diagnostic information.

Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is a common occupational condition. The aim of this study was to develop a classification model for NIHL on the basis of both functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) by applying machine learning methods. fMRI indices such as the amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF), fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (fALFF), regional homogeneity (ReHo), degree of centrality (DC), and sMRI indices such as gray matter volume (GMV), white matter volume (WMV), and cortical thickness were extracted from each brain region.

A total of 7 patients with type 1 infratentorial superficial siderosis(iSS-1)in Memory Clinic at Huashan Hospital, Fudan University from March 2019 to March 2023 were respectively collected to analyze the clinical characteristics and treatment, and followed up for 12 months. There were 7 patients, 2 males and 5 females, aged 56 (49-60) years. The 4 patients who underwent cognitive assessment had varying degree of cognitive impairment, with 2 patients exhibiting severe executive function impairment.

The constant need to listen attentively leads to heightened frustration, fatigue and decreased concentration. According to research, high-frequency hearing loss could have negative implications on speech perception and make it even harder to communicate.
