PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Vestibular·5d agoMechanistic Pathways Linking Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Hypertension, and Osteoarthritis to Falls in Older Adults: A Scoping ReviewUnderstanding the overlapping mechanistic pathways to falls in older adults can help audiologists contextualize vestibular findings and strengthen the case for integrated fall-prevention programs.
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Cochlear implants·4w agoCochlear Implants in Inner Ear Malformations-Considerations Regarding the Role of Imaging in Preoperative EvaluationSurgeons and audiologists involved in cochlear implant candidacy should ensure comprehensive pre-operative imaging protocols that capture cochlear dimensions, as malformation morphology directly influences electrode selection and surgical approach.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Hearing aids·4w agoA Multidimensional Comparison of Psychosocial Adjustment, Functional Hearing, and Device Benefit in Adult Hearing Device UsersAudiologists should consider multidimensional outcome assessments — combining psychosocial, functional, and device-benefit measures — when evaluating hearing device users, rather than relying on single-domain tools alone.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Vestibular·2mo agoBalance Disorders: Insufficient Supply of Vestibular Examinations by the Italian National Health Service, 2021-2023Quantifying the gap between need and supply of vestibular testing highlights a systemic healthcare access problem that may mirror shortfalls in other national health systems globally.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Vestibular·2mo agoPersistent Dizziness and Time-Domain Dissociation in Vestibular Function: A Hypothesis-Generating Case Series and Spatiotemporal Framework for Targeted Vestibular RehabilitationThis is hypothesis-generating only; the spatiotemporal framework is not yet validated, so no change to vestibular rehabilitation protocols is warranted until prospective studies confirm the model.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Hearing aids·2mo agoImpact of Smart Hearing Aid Technology on Self-Esteem in Patients with Sensorineural Hearing Loss: A Cross-Sectional Multivariate StudyCross-sectional design prevents causal conclusions; audiologists may note a positive association between smart hearing aid use and self-esteem, but randomised evidence is needed before counselling patients on this outcome.＋Save
