Abstract

We determined the audiological outcome, the subjective and objective hearing quality in patients suffering from asymmetric hearing loss (AHL). Furthermore, we evaluated psychological comorbidities and tinnitus burden before and after cochlear implantation. Prospective cohort study. 44 AHL patients were unilaterally implanted with a multichannel cochlear implant between 2011 and 2016. Speech discrimination (Freiburg Monosyllable Word Test, Oldenburg Sentence Test) was measured before, 6 and 12 months after implantation. Subjective hearing quality, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), tinnitus burden, anxiety, depressiveness, perceived stress level and coping abilities were evaluated before implantation, 6 and 12 months postoperative using specific validated questionnaires (Oldenburg Inventory, Nijmegen Cochlear Implantation Questionnaire, Tinnitus Questionnaire, General Anxiety Disorder-7, Depression Scale, Perceived Stress Questionnaire and Cope Inventory). Subjective and objective hearing quality, speech discrimination and health-related quality of life were significantly increased in AHL patients. Tinnitus burden significantly decreased over the 12 postoperative months. No significant alteration was observed for anxiety, d...Continue Reading

Acute Hemorrhagic Leukoencephalitis

Acute hemorrhagic leukoencephalitis is a rare form of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis characterized by acute inflammation in the brain and spinal cord that causes demyelination and bleeding. It is often fatal, although treatment with immunosuppressives and plasma exchange can be helpful. Find the latest research on acute hemorrhagic leukoencephalitis here.

Auditory Perception

Auditory perception is the ability to receive and interpret information attained by the ears. Here is the latest research on factors and underlying mechanisms that influence auditory perception.
