Background: The outcome of clinical treatment for idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL) is frequently the primary concern.
Aim: For the convenient prediction of reference prognosis outcomes in patients with ISSNHL.
Materials And Methods: Patients diagnosed with ISSNHL who were admitted to the otorhinolaryngology ward of Zhejiang Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2020 to December 2023 were included. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were employed to identify independent prognostic factors for the treatment outcome of ISSNHL, which were subsequently used to develop nomograms. Discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility were assessed to evaluate the performance of the ISSNHL nomograms.
Results: 371 ISSNHL patients were enrolled in this study. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that history of deafness, aural fullness, time of onset, and age were independent prognostic factors for ISSNHL patients, with statistically significant regression coefficients. Predictive nomograms were developed with excellent discrimination, calibration, and clinical value.
Conclusions: Leveraging data from ISSNHL patients, we developed a predictive nomogram to assess prognostic factors upon admission. This nomogram facilitates clinicians in approximating the likelihood of favorable prognosis.
Significance: By accumulating clinical data from ISSNHL patients, it's anticipated that the possibility of recovery following treatment can be determined.

Objective: Our study tried to evaluate and compare the therapeutic efficacy of intratympanic injection of dexamethasone (DEX) at different concentrations for the treatment of idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL).
Methods: A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted on 203 patients with unilateral ISSNHL. Patients were divided into four groups: the control group (n = 47, systemic treatment only), the high-concentration group (n = 51, intratympanic injection of DEX 20 mg/ml), the medium-concentration group (n = 55, 10 mg/ml), and the low-concentration group (n = 50, 5 mg/ml).

Objective: The aim of this study was to examine angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion, alpha adducin, and interleukin-10 (IL-10) gene polymorphisms (GPs) in terms of both idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL) risk and their potential prognostic effects.
Methods: The study group consisted of 70 patients and the control group consisted of 50 patients. Venous blood samples were analyzed for relevant GPs via kompetitive allele-specific polymerase chain reaction.

Introduction: Current treatment of idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL) includes a combination of corticosteroids and hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) without established dose. The objective of this study was to investigate whether > 10 HBOT treatments offers improved outcome over 10 treatments.
Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed of patients treated with HBOT for ISSNHL between 2013 and 2022 at the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital.

Background: Idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL) is a sudden hearing loss of unknown etiology, with complex and diverse prognostic factors. Aim This study aims to identify independent prognostic factors for ISSNHL and to construct and validate a nomogram based on these factors.
Methods: This study collected multicenter retrospective data and compared the differences between effective treatment and ineffective treatment groups in terms of age, vertigo, and several serum markers.

To identify the factors that influence the time to treatment (TT) in patients with idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL). This study included a total of 324 patients with ISSNHL, who were treated at our department between September 2021 and May 2024. Basic information and audiological indicators of patients were collected, and their relationship with the TT was analyzed.
