Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Hearing loss (HL) is one of the most common disorders in modern society. HL can be divided into conductive HL, sensorineural HL and mixed one. The etiology of HL is broad, including both genetic and acquired HL. Conductive HL, caused by issues in the external ear canal and middle ear, can be treated through surgery to help patients hear normal and/or hear better. Sensorineural HL can be original from hair cell damage, synapse impairment, impairment of auditory nerve, different parts of central auditory system. Management of HL have been developed based on recently advanced knowledge on research of HL. In this Special Issue, we would like to invite authors worldwide to submit your recent finding on the management of HL focus on pharmacology, operative practice, habilitation/rehabilitation of HL from external ear canal to central auditory system. Authors are also welcome to more advanced research, such as gene/stem cell therapy in the field.
