A case of acute labyrinthitis due to intra-aural tick infestation: a case report.
J Med Case Rep
January 2025
B.P. Koirala Institute of Health Sciences, Dharan, Nepal.
Background: Intra-aural tick infestations, though uncommon, pose a serious clinical challenge owing to the risk of acute labyrinthitis-an inflammatory condition of the inner ear. This inflammation can lead to severe complications such as sensorineural hearing loss, vertigo, and facial nerve palsy. Prompt recognition and management are crucial to prevent these adverse outcomes.

Timing cues such as interaural time differences (ITDs) and temporal pitch are pivotal for sound localization and source segregation, but their perception is degraded in cochlear-implant (CI) listeners as compared to normal-hearing listeners. In multi-electrode stimulation, intra-aural channel interactions between electrodes are assumed to be an important factor limiting access to those cues. The monaural asynchrony of stimulation timing across electrodes is assumed to mediate the amount of these interactions.

Article Synopsis
- Tonic tensor tympani syndrome affects some patients with tinnitus, leading to additional ear-related symptoms without identifiable physical issues.
- A study over six years identified that 13% of tinnitus patients met the criteria for this syndrome, and most showed improvement in their self-reported symptoms after treatment.
- The findings highlight that tonic tensor tympani syndrome is a notable concern for tinnitus patients, and existing management approaches are beneficial in helping them adapt to their condition.
Is implementing a post-lunch nap beneficial on evening performance, following two nights partial sleep restriction?
Chronobiol Int
September 2023
Research Institute for Sport and Exercise Sciences, Liverpool John Moores University, Liverpool, UK.
Article Synopsis
- The study examined how partial sleep restriction (PSR) affects cognitive performance and submaximal weightlifting in resistance-trained males after a nap at different times.
- Seventeen participants underwent three testing conditions: PSR with no nap, PSR with a 30-min nap, and PSR with a 60-min nap, measured across different times of the day (07:30, 11:00, 14:00, 17:00).
- The results showed that naps at 13:00 had no impact on strength measures, but strength performance was highest at 17:00, indicating time of day plays a significant role in exercise performance.
The Headphone and Loudspeaker Test-Part II: A comprehensive method for playback device screening in Internet experiments.
Behav Res Methods
January 2024
State University of Music and Performing Arts Stuttgart, Stuttgart, Germany.
HALT (The Headphone and Loudspeaker Test) Part II is a continuation of HALT Part I. The main goals of this study (HALT Part II) were (a) to develop screening tests and strategies to discriminate headphones from loudspeakers, (b) to come up with a methodological approach to combine more than two screening tests, and (c) to estimate data quality and required sample sizes for the application of screening tests. Screening Tests A and B were developed based on psychoacoustic effects.
