Most therapies for treating sensorineural hearing loss are challenged by the delivery across
multiple tissue barriers to the hard-to-access anatomical location of the inner ear. In this …

Objective Systematically review the current literature for evidence on the “real-life” benefits
of hearing preservation cochlear implantation (HPCI) for children and adults. Design …

A cochlear implant is a neuroprosthetic device that can restore speech perception for people
with severe to profound hearing loss. Because of recent evolutions, a growing number of …

Hearing preservation may be achieved initially in the majority of patients after cochlear
implantation, however, a significant proportion of these patients experience delayed hearing …

Recessive PJVK mutations that cause a deficiency of pejvakin, a protein expressed in both
sensory hair cells and first-order neurons of the inner ear, are an important cause of …

A common problem with segmentation of medical images using neural networks is the
difficulty to obtain a significant number of pixel-level annotated data for training. To address …

Cochlear implants (CI) restore hearing of severely hearing-impaired patients. Although this
auditory prosthesis is widely considered to be very successful, structural cochlear trauma …

Objectives Current surgical techniques aim to preserve intracochlear structures during
cochlear implant (CI) insertion to maintain residual cochlear function. The optimal technique …

Objectives Electrocochleography (ECochG) recordings during cochlear implantation have
shown promise in estimating the impact on residual hearing. The purpose of the study was …

Hearing loss is the most common neurosensory disorder, and with the constant increase in
etiological factors, combined with early detection protocols, numbers will continue to rise …
