PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Vestibular·5d agoRimegepant for vestibular and cochlear symptoms associated with vertigo in a real-world retrospective studyPreliminary retrospective evidence suggests rimegepant may reduce vestibular and cochlear symptoms; no practice change is warranted until prospective controlled data are available.
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Tinnitus·7w agoTargeted inhibition of the BDNF/AKT/mTOR pathway in the inferior colliculus ameliorates salicylate-induced tinnitus in ratsIdentifying the BDNF/AKT/mTOR pathway as a contributor to tinnitus opens a new molecular target avenue that could eventually lead to the first pharmacological treatments for tinnitus in humans.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Tinnitus·8w agoEEG microstates and dynamic functional connectivity reveal stage-specific brain networks in subjective tinnitusIdentifying stage-specific brain network signatures in tinnitus could eventually guide targeted neurostimulation or biofeedback therapies, moving tinnitus management beyond symptom masking.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Cochlear implants·2mo agoOptical induction of auditory perception via cochlear stimulation in Mongolian gerbils without genetic modificationDemonstrating optical cochlear stimulation without genetic modification in a mammal removes a major translational barrier, potentially accelerating the path toward next-generation optogenetic hearing implants.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Vestibular·3mo agoVestibular disorders and monoamine neurotransmitters: Current evidenceClarifying how monoamine neurotransmitters modulate vestibular function may open new pharmacological avenues for treating balance disorders, a common and underserved condition in audiology and neurology practice.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Tinnitus·3mo agoTinnitus and tinnitus disorder: Genetic, neurobiological, and clinical differentiationClinicians should consider applying the proposed tinnitus vs. tinnitus disorder distinction in intake assessments, as it may better identify patients who need psychological or autonomic co-management beyond standard audiological care.＋Save
