This paper presents a new procedure to design optimal electrodes for cochlear implants. The main objective of this study is to find a set of electrode designs that maximize the focalization and minimize the power consumption simultaneously. To achieve that, a criterion to measure the ability of focalization of an electrode is proposed.

Article Synopsis
- Otitis media with effusion (OME), previously thought to be noninfective, has been shown to contain bacteria like Alloiococcus otitidis, which may play a role in the condition's development.
- The study included 110 pediatric patients with OME and a control group, analyzing middle ear fluid samples to identify bacterial presence.
- Results indicated that 72.5% of OME patients had bacteria in their samples, with A. otitidis being the most prevalent, raising questions about its potential link to OME.
