  • Clinically, our ultimate goal is to improve human health not only by caring for our patients expertly, but also by advancing our scientific knowledge base so that all physicians can treat disease more effectively. (usc.edu)

  • L'étude s'est déroulée sur une période de 12 moisallant du 01 janvier2021 au 31 décembre 2021 et avait inclus les patients présentant une hypoacousie et /ou vertige périphérique et ayant réalisé une audiométrie tonale liminaire mettant en évidence une surdité. (bvsalud.org)
Occurs1
  • Tissue oxygenation to the structures within the cochlea occurs via oxygen diffusion from cochlear capillary networks into the perilymph and the cortilymph. (hyperbaricoxygentherapy.com)
Auditory system2
  • Although the effects of organic solvent s on the central nervous system are well known, their sensorineural effects, particularly in the auditory system, constitute a new area for research. (cdc.gov)
  • Studies conducted with experimental animals have shown that the combined exposure to solvent s and noise results in a synergistic effect on the auditory system, and that the lesions can be both cochlear and retrocochlear. (cdc.gov)
Implant users1
  • A focus of the lab is to optimize stimulation timing to provide better musical pitch and refined spatial hearing for cochlear implant users. (usc.edu)
Otoacoustic emissions3
  • Assessment of cochlear damage after pneumococcal meningitis using otoacoustic emissions. (otoemissions.org)
  • Otoacoustic emissions as a screening tool for sensorineural hearing loss. (otoemissions.org)
  • We utilize approaches that combine both direct (e.g., intracochlear vibrometry) and indirect (e.g., otoacoustic emissions) measurements of cochlear responses in animals with theoretical modeling. (usc.edu)
Meningitis1
  • We report a case of GBS meningitis in a 6-year-old boy with a cochlear implant. (cdc.gov)
Centers for Diseas2
  • Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. (cdc.gov)
  • The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cannot attest to the accuracy of a non-federal website. (cdc.gov)
Presbycusis2
  • Examples included presbycusis, noise-induced hearing loss, Ménière disease, and retrocochlear lesions such as vestibular schwannoma. (medscape.com)
  • The presence of hearing loss in the elderly is described by the term "presbycusis" it typically presents as sensorineural hearing loss characterized by loss in the high frequencies[ 10 ] ( Figure 1 ) and sometimes may be associated to the presence of cochlear dead regions[ 11 ].

Etiology1
Candidacy2
  • In determining cochlear implant candidacy, the HINT is performed without background noise, despite its name. (medscape.com)
  • As noted earlier, when used to assist in the determination of cochlear implant candidacy, the HINT is currently performed in quiet. (medscape.com)
Left ear1
  • After several delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I received a cochlear implant for my left ear in March 2021 with a Cochlear™ Nucleus ® 7 Sound Processor . (cochlear.com)
Right-ear1
  • At 4 years of age, he received a right-ear cochlear implant with good functional result. (cdc.gov)
Mild1
  • Rubella, also known as German measles, is an ex- countries in the World Health Organization (WHO) anthematous disease that commonly causes mild Region of the Americas had eliminated endemic trans- fever and rash that begins on the face and gradu- mission of rubel a and CRS. (who.int)
Trauma1
  • That means that retirees whose hearing loss can be blamed on other causes that are not trauma, disease or a birth defect don't qualify for coverage. (militaryconnection.com)
Modiolus1
  • This electrical signal is transmitted via electrodes to the spiral ganglion cells in the cochlear modiolus. (medscape.com)
Therapeutic target2
  • Immune system of the ear as a novel, therapeutic target for sensorineural hearing loss. (webmd.com)
  • Blocking the release or activation of extracellular HMGB1 has been proposed as a promising therapeutic target for inflammatory diseases. (frontiersin.org)
