A Hearing Screening Protocol for Stroke Patients: An Exploratory Study
Conclusion: This study is a first step towards addressing the complex auditory needs of stroke survivors in a systematic manner, with the ultimate aim to support their communication needs and long-term recovery and wellbeing. Registration: Project Identification number 11/0469 and REC ref 11/LO/1675

Long-term use benefits of personal frequency-modulated systems for speech in noise perception in patients with stroke with auditory processing deficits: a non-randomised controlled trial study
Conclusions 10-week use of FMs by adult patients with stroke may lead to benefits in unaided speech in noise perception. Our findings may indicate auditory plasticity type changes and require further investigation. Trial registration number Pre-results; NCT02889107.

Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss Predicts Ischemic Stroke: a Longitudinal Follow-Up Study
Objectives: To investigate the risk of stroke in SSNHL patients. Study Design: A longitudinal follow-up cohort study. Setting: The Korean National Health Insurance Service-National Sample Cohort from 2002 to 2013. Patients: The 4,944 SSNHL participants were matched with 19,776 controls for age, sex, income, region of residence, hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia. The SSNHL subjects were diagnosed (International Classification of Disease [ICD]-10: H91.2), underwent an audiometry examination, and were treated with steroids. The history of hemorrhagic stroke, ischemic stroke, hypertension, diabetes, dyslipide...

Posterior circulation ischemic stroke in childhood and neurofibromatosis type 2
We report the clinical and genetic findings and review the previous literature on vasculopathy reported in association with NF2, with a focus on the symptoms presenting at disease onset. For our case patient, an unpublished germline mutation resulting in frameshift (c.876_877insT) was identified on blood screening. We report our full multidisciplinary assessment with vascular angiography, volumetric MRI and audiometry. Vasculopathy is not currently included in the criteria traditionally used for diagnosis of NF2. We suggest that vascular stroke in childhood may be considered a presenting symptom for NF2.

Clinical characteristics of cerebral hemorrhage with bilateral sudden deafness as the first symptom
ConclusionThe results showed that patients were mostly middle-aged and elderly with no typical stroke symptoms, and a history of stroke and hypertension increased the risk of hearing loss. The cause of hearing loss in patients with cerebral hemorrhage may be related to the damage of the hearing conduction pathway or (and) the lack of blood supply to the central auditory nervous system. Detecting hearing impairment in time and actively intervening can help most patients to improve their hearing significantly. The degree of hearing damage and recovery is related to the bleeding site, the amount of bleeding, and the timely treatment.

Acute vertigo and sensorineural hearing loss from infarction of the vestibulocochlear nerve: A case report
We present a case illustrating a rare but significant finding of vestibulocochlear nerve infarction revealed by DWI-MRI. Prompt imaging protocol enabled the detection of significant findings in this patient with acute unilateral audiovestibulopathy. Clinicians should be aware of the vestibulocochlear nerve and labyrinth on MRI in patients with cerebellar stroke.

The evaluation of the sense of hearing in patients with carotid artery stenosis within the extracranial segments
The objective of the study was to assess the effect of carotid and vertebral artery stenosis on the function of the hearing and equilibrium organ on the basis of diagnostic audiological examinations including pure-tone threshold audiometry, impedance audiometry, otoacoustic emission tests and brainstem auditory evoked potential tests. The study was conducted in 63 patients (32 males, 31 females) aged 45 –75 years, presenting with carotid and vertebral artery stenosis and treated at the Vascular Surgery Clinic of the University Clinical Hospital in Wrocław. Patients were stratified into two subgroups according to their a...

Emergency diagnosis of the acute vestibular syndrome.
CONCLUSIONS: The new bedside oculomotor test is suitable for the diagnosis of posterior circulation stroke manifesting with isolated vertigo in early cases, when the routine neuroradiologic methods have a lower sensitivity or are not available.

Cardiocerebrovascular risk in sensorineural hearing loss: results from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2015 to 2018
ConclusionOur findings suggested that a higher cardiocerebrovascular risk burden was associated with an increased risk of SNHL, and the relationship may be influenced by age and sex. Future longitudinal studies are needed to investigate the mechanistic and pathologic vascular hypothesis of SNHL.

Audiological evaluation in Chinese patients with mitochondrial encephalomyopathies.
CONCLUSIONS: Various portions of the auditory system could be involved in patients with mitochondrial diseases, including cochlea, auditory nerve, auditory pathway and cortex. Hearing loss was more associated with multisystem involvement. Genotype, mutant load of mtDNA and other unknown factors could contribute to heterogeneity of hearing impairment in mitochondrial disease. PMID: 24931247 [PubMed - in process]

Glomus Tympanicum: A Review of 115 Cases over 4 Decades
Conclusion Surgery remains the treatment of choice for GT, providing a high rate of tumor control and resolution of aural symptoms with a low risk of complications. The surgical approach and extent of resection should be tailored to the patient. Gross total resection can be performed in over 90% of patients; however, leaving a limited adherent tumor remnant on the facial nerve or carotid artery should be considered with advanced infiltrative disease to prevent unnecessary morbidity.

Inferior cerebellar peduncular lesion causes a distinct vestibular syndrome
ConclusionsA unilateral ICP lesion at the pontine level leads to the development of isolated AVS. However, a negative head impulse test and directional dissociation between OTR/SVV tilt and body lateropulsion may distinguish lesions involving unilateral ICP at the pontine level from those affecting other vestibular structures.

Inferior Cerebellar Peduncular Lesion Causes a Distinct Vestibular Syndrome (P1.332)
CONCLUSIONS: Unilateral ICP lesion at the pontine level mimics acute peripheral vestibular disorders. However, directional dissociation between OTR/SVV tilt and body lateropulsion with normal head impulse or caloric tests may be a sign distinguishing lesions involving unilateral ICP at the pontine level from those affecting other vestibular structures.
