Implementation of uHear™--an iOS-based application to screen for hearing loss--in older patients with cancer undergoing a comprehensive geriatric assessment.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Validation of uHear™ as a screening tool to detect hearing loss in older patients with cancer without a known diagnosis of presbycusis, as part of a Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA). METHODS Patients (≥70 years) with a histologically confirmed diagnosis of cancer, were enrolled at

Protective effect of polyphenols on presbycusis via oxidative/nitrosative stress suppression in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Age-related hearing loss (AHL) -presbycusis- is the number one neurodegenerative disorder and top communication deficit of our aged population. Experimental evidence suggests that mitochondrial dysfunction associated with reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays a central role in the aging process of

Genetic analysis of presbycusis by arrayed primer extension.

Only registered users can translate articles

Using the Hereditary Hearing Loss arrayed primer extension (APEX) array, which contains 198 mutations across 8 hearing loss-associated genes (GJB2, GJB6, GJB3, GJA1, SLC26A4, SLC26A5, 12S-rRNA, and tRNA Ser), we compared the frequency of sequence variants in 94 individuals with early presbycusis to

Tinnitus.

Only registered users can translate articles

Tinnitus is a common otologic symptom secondary to numerous etiologies, such as noise exposure, otitis, Meniere's disease, otosclerosis, trauma, medications, and presbycusis. A thorough evaluation is necessary to rule out less common causes, which may include acoustic neuromas, glomus tumors,

A Retrospective Cohort Study of Longitudinal Audiologic Assessment in Single and Fractionated Stereotactic Radiosurgery for Vestibular Schwannoma.

Only registered users can translate articles

Fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for vestibular schwannomas (VS) has been theorized to allow for tumor control with higher rates of hearing preservation in selected patients with useful hearing. However, there is a paucity of literature with formal audiologic measures of

Ipsilateral Cochlear Implantation in the Presence of Observed and Irradiated Vestibular Schwannomas

Only registered users can translate articles

Objectives: Historically, eventual loss of cochlear nerve function has limited patients with neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) to auditory brainstem implants (ABI), which in general are less effective than modern cochlear implants (CI). Our

[Changes in early auditory evoked potentials in acoustic neuroma].

Only registered users can translate articles

The auditory brain-stem responses (ABRs) of 38 patients with acoustic neuroma (AN) were recorded pre-operatively and evaluated with regard to pathological deviations from the normal. Several qualitative and quantitative features of the ABRs were compared statistically with the results obtained from

An objective method of analyzing cochlear versus noncochlear patterns of distortion-product otoacoustic emissions in patients with acoustic neuromas.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To objectify the effects of retrocochlear disease on distortion-product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) by developing a computer-based software strategy for classifying DPOAE patterns as cochlear or noncochlear and to evaluate the sensitivities of these techniques in a large series of

Contralateral hearing loss following inner ear injury: sympathetic cochleolabyrinthitis?

Only registered users can translate articles

Acoustic tumor surgery provided an ideal model in which to study possible contralateral hearing loss following a destructive surgical procedure on the inner ear. Follow-up audiometric studies were performed on patients with unilateral acoustic tumors who had undergone resection of their tumors.

Screening recommendations for the elderly.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Studies have documented the potential contributions of preventive health care programs. Yet little is known about which screening tests should be included in public health programs for older persons. This study offers recommendations regarding these tests. METHODS The recommendations come

NADPH oxidase inhibitor apocynin decreases mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis in the ventral cochlear nucleus of D-galactose-induced aging model in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Presbycusis has become a common sensory deficit in humans. Oxidative damage to mitochondrial DNA and mitochondrial dysfunction is strongly associated with the aging of the auditory system. A previous study established a mimetic rat model of aging using D-galactose (D-gal) and first reported that
