Early detection and management of hearing loss to reduce dementia risk in older adults with mild cognitive impairment: findings from the treating auditory impairment and cognition trial (TACT).
Age Ageing
January 2025
Division of Psychiatry, University College London, London, UK.
Background: Age-related hearing loss and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) independently increase dementia risk. The Ageing and Cognitive Health Evaluation in Elders randomised controlled trial (RCT) found hearing aids reduce cognitive decline in high-risk older adults with poor hearing.
Methods: This pilot RCT in London memory clinics randomised people with MCI (aged ≥55, untreated hearing loss defined as Pure Tone Average 0.
Intraoperative impedance and ECAP results in cochlear implant recipients with inner ear malformations and normal cochlear anatomy: a retrospective analysis.
Acta Otolaryngol
January 2025
Department of Audiology, Hacettepe University, Ankara, Turkey.
Background: The intraoperative measurements are essential steps in cochlear implant (CI) surgery for confirming correct electrode placement.
Objectives: To examine the intraoperative impedance and electrically evoked action potential (ECAP) measurement results of cochlear implant (CI) users with normal cochlear anatomy (NCA) and to compare them with CI users with inner ear malformations (IEM).
Material And Methods: This retrospective study included intraoperative data of 300 ears from 258 individuals using Medel and Cochlear (Nucleus) CI devices.
Morphometric evaluation of middle ear anatomical structures using full volume (12 × 9) CBCT scans: A retrospective study in Navi Mumbai.
Natl J Maxillofac Surg

Department of Oral Medicine and Maxillofacial Radiology, Dr. G. D. Pol Foundations YMT Dental College and Hospital, Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra, India.
Introduction: The tympanic cavity contains three tiny bones, the malleus, incus, and stapes, which have a fundamental role in the transmission of sound. Recent research emphasizes the use of CBCT for the anatomic study of the temporal bone. The information about middle ear anatomy on CBCT scans is meager; hence, this retrospective study was conducted to identify and determine the various morphometrical parameters of the malleus using CBCT which can be helpful during reconstructive procedures for the otologic surgeon.

Department of ENT, Jubilee Mission Medical College and Research Institute, Thrissur, Kerala, India.
Background And Objectives: Serous otitis media (SOM), also called otitis media with effusion (OME) or glue ear, is a collection of non-purulent fluid within the middle ear space. Children with cleft palate are more prone to develop this condition. This is caused by impaired eustachian tube function in cleft palate.

January 2025
Department of Audiology & Vestibular Medicine, Senior Department of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery, the Sixth Medical Center of People's Liberation Army (PLA) General Hospital, Chinese PLA General Hospital, Medical School of Chinese PLA, Beijing, China.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the causal relationships between sleep-associated traits and hearing difficulties in noise (HDinN) by Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.
Design: Single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with chronotype, insomnia, sleep duration, daytime dozing or sleeping, and ease of getting up in the morning were extracted from European population genome-wide association study pooled data for bidirectional MR analysis. The MR-Egger regression, the inverse variance weighted technique, and the weighted median method were used for data analysis.
