Background and Aim: Asymmetric sensorineural hearing loss is difficult to rehabilitate acoustically. Bilateral amplification may induce binaural interference, while CROS/BiCROS systems provide benefit only when the speech signal reaches the poorer ea...
Background/Objectives: Cochlear implants (CIs) and other implantable hearing devices are crucial to treat hearing loss. The aim of this study was to analyze the temporal trends of implantation for hearing devices in Italy between 2001 and 2023, with...
Background: Individuals with untreated hearing loss often experience cognitive decline as a result of increased cognitive load and reduced sensory stimulation. Despite the well-established link between untreated hearing loss and cognitive decline in...
Background/Objectives: Subjective tinnitus, defined as the perception of sound without an external source, is a common and often debilitating condition. In the absence of pharmacotherapy, disease management guidelines recommend counseling interventio...
Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate the validity, clinical applicability, and developmental sensitivity of the Romanian LEESPQ in children with cochlear implants (CIs), by analyzing its association with age at implantation, duration of au...
Background: Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is one of the most common types of hearing impairment, even though it is preventable. However, awareness and protective behaviors among young adults remain limited. This study explored the knowledge, atti...
Background/Objectives: Children with perinatal HIV (PHIV) are more at risk for hearing loss than HIV-unexposed (HU) children. Due to medical advances maternal HIV transmission to newborns is decreasing, but in children with perinatal HIV exposure, un...
Background/Objectives: Children with hearing loss (HL) could experience significant fatigue which compromises their performance. The effort related to the combination of HL and visual impairment in children affected by Usher syndrome (USH) could comp...
Background/Objectives: Tumors of the cerebellopontine angle (CPA) encompass a limited range of histologies, predominantly vestibular schwannomas (VSs), meningiomas, and paragangliomas (PGLs). Their growth region threatens the cranial nerves (V–...
Background/Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of hearing aid amplification in reducing self-perceived tinnitus handicap in individuals with ski-slope hearing loss—a population seldom addressed in previous research. In add...
