The Effect of Noise Exposure on Hearing Function and Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials
CONCLUSION: Noise can lead to damage to both auditory and vestibular functions. Therefore, audiological assessments and vestibular evoked myogenic potentials could be clinically useful for examining patients with NIHL.PMID:37203123 | PMC:PMC10301909 | DOI:10.4103/nah.nah_74_22 (Source: Noise and Health)

Insights into perceived listening difficulties post COVID-19 infection: no measurable hearing difficulty on clinical tests despite increased self-reported listening effort
ConclusionThe only difference between groups was self-reported listening effort. This could be due to a subclinical auditory deficit following COVID-19, increased listening effort due to the impact of COVID-19 on cognitive processes, or a psychosomatic response/health anxiety.

Inter-rater agreement between 13 otolaryngologists to diagnose otitis media in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children using a telehealth approach
CONCLUSIONS: There is substantial agreement between otolaryngologists to diagnose ear disease using electronically stored clinical data collected from telehealth assessments. The addition of audiometry, tympanometry and nurse impressions significantly improved expert accuracy and inter-rater agreement, compared to reviewing otoscopic images alone.PMID:37003013 | DOI:10.1016/j.ijporl.2023.111494 (Source: Rural Remote Health)

Wideband Tympanometry and Absorbance for Diagnosing Middle Ear Fluids in Otitis Media with Effusion
CONCLUSION: According to negative likelihood ratio (0.11), a person with normal middle ear is 9 times more likely to have negative test with the use of resonance frequency, wideband tympanometry, and average absorbance together. To differentiate serous fluid from the empty ear, using only 226 Hz or 1000 Hz compliance for surgical indication can potentially cause wrong decisions according to negative likelihood ratios.PMID:36975086 | DOI:10.5152/iao.2023.22697 (Source: Adv Data)

Early Hearing Detection and Intervention Results in Northeastern of Iran from 2005 to 2019: A Repeated Cross ‑Sectional Study
Conclusions: During 2005 to 2019 the coverage rate reached to more than 95% of live births. To improve the EHDI process in this population, better follow ‑up of diagnosed neonates and expansion of diagnostic and intervention services are needed.

The Rise and Fall of Aural Acoustic Immittance Assessment Tools
This article reviews important historical markers in the development and operation of middle ear assessment tools and analysis methods. Technical and clinical factors underlying the emergence and adoption of different acoustic immittance tests as a standard of clinical practice are described. In addition, we discuss the likelihood for widespread adoption of wideband acoustic immittance and wideband tympanometry in future clinical practice.

Balloon Dilation Eustachian Tuboplasty Combined with Tympanotomy Tube Insertion for Treatment of Refractory Otitis Media with Effusion: A Randomized, Prospective, Controlled Trial Comparing Local Anesthesia Combined Sedation Versus General Anesthesia
CONCLUSIONS The treatment effects and safety of local anesthesia and general anesthesia under BET combined with TBI for treatment of refractory otitis media with effusion are comparable. However, further studies should aim at reducing pain and discomfort.PMID:36895146 | DOI:10.12659/MSM.938879 (Source: Medical Science Monitor)
