Unlabelled: Secondary glaucoma is one of the main problems of rehabilitation of patients with traumatic damage of the iris.
Purpose: This study analyzes the long-term results of rehabilitation of patients with posttraumatic aniridia and glaucoma.
Material And Methods: The study included 310 patients (310 eyes) with posttraumatic aniridia who had artificial iris-lens diaphragm (ILD) MIOL-Raduzhka implanted in 2002-2022. Before ILD implantation, 61 patients (22.8%) had secondary glaucoma. Among them 35 patients (11.3%) underwent various modifications of glaucoma surgery. In 26 patients (8.6%), intraocular pressure (IOP) was compensated medically before ILD implantation.
Results: Until the third month after ILD implantation, there was a trend for IOP increase in some patients. Decompensation was noted in 8 (22.9%) out of 35 patients who had underwent glaucoma surgery. IOP decompensation was observed in 21 (80.8%) of 26 cases in patients with glaucoma compensated by drugs before ILD implantation. After ILD implantation, glaucoma appeared for the first time in 21 patients (6.8%) out of 310. In order to compensate IOP after ILD implantation, Ahmed valve implantation was performed most often - in 35 cases (70%) out of 50, deep sclerectomy - in 5 cases (10%), non-penetrating deep sclerectomy - in 4 cases (8%), micropulse transscleral laser cyclophotocoagulation (MP-TSCPC) - in 5 cases (10%), endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation (ECP) - in 1 case (2%).
Conclusion: ILD implantation in patients with posttraumatic aniridia and secondary glaucoma should be performed with IOP compensated without hypotensive therapy and not earlier than 6-12 months after glaucoma surgery. The most optimal glaucoma surgery types in this group of patients are Ahmed valve implantation and MP-TSCPC.

Bilateral cochlear implant (CI) patients exhibit significant limitations in spatial hearing. Their ability to process interaural time differences (ITDs) is often impaired, while their ability to process interaural level differences (ILDs) remains comparatively good. Clinical studies aiming to identify the causes of these limitations are often plagued by confounds and ethical limitations.

Yet for BiCI users, limited access to interaural time difference (ITD) cues and reduced saliency of interaural level difference (ILD) cues restricts perceptual benefits of spatially separating a target from masker sounds. The present study explored whether magnifying ILD cues improves intelligibility of masked speech for BiCI listeners in a "symmetrical-masker" configuration, which ensures that neither ear benefits from a long-term positive target-to-masker ratio (TMR) due to naturally occurring ILD cues.

Isolated 17,20-lyase deficiency (ILD) is a partial form of 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase deficiency that typically presents with infertility and lack of pubertal development. Successful live births have been achieved using assisted reproductive techniques. We present a case of spontaneous pregnancy in an 18-year-old female with ILD without reproduction treatments or glucocorticoid use.

Congenital single-sided deafness (SSD) leads to an aural preference syndrome that is characterized by overrepresentation of the hearing ear in the auditory system. Cochlear implantation (CI) of the deaf ear is an effective treatment for SSD. However, the newly introduced auditory input in congenital SSD often does not reach expectations in late-implanted CI recipients with respect to binaural hearing and speech perception.

Purpose: The inter-aural time difference (ITD) and inter-aural level difference (ILD) are important acoustic cues for horizontal localization and spatial release from masking. These cues are encoded based on inter-aural comparisons of tonotopically matched binaural inputs. Therefore, binaural coherence or the interaural spectro-temporal similarity is a pre-requisite for encoding ITD and ILD.
