PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Vestibular·10d agoAudiovestibular Outcomes After Parathyroidectomy in Primary HyperparathyroidismIf surgery to correct overactive parathyroid glands is shown to improve hearing and balance outcomes, audiologists should consider screening for primary hyperparathyroidism in patients with unexplained audiovestibular symptoms; however, the prospective design without a control...
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Cochlear implants·2w agoRegional Impedance Patterns in Cochlear Implantation: Influence of Demographic and Early ActivationDemographic factors (age, sex) and early activation timing appear to influence regional electrode impedance patterns, but until clinical implications for programming or outcomes are confirmed, no immediate change to cochlear implant activation protocols is supported.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Vestibular·3w agoFunctional Vestibular Abilities in Children and Adolescents With and Without Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: Preliminary ResultsPreliminary findings only — no actionable change to vestibular assessment protocols for pediatric diabetic patients until larger controlled studies confirm these results.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Cochlear implants·3w ago3D-Printed Electroanatomic Twins of Cadaveric Cochleae: A Platform for Cochlear Implant Testing3D-printed cochlear twins are a pre-competitive research tool at this stage; audiologists and CI surgeons should monitor this line of research as it may eventually support patient-specific electrode selection and surgical planning.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Cochlear implants·4w agoNine Years of Experience With Bonebridge: Long-Term Clinical and Audiological OutcomesNine-year retrospective data on the Bonebridge implant supports its long-term audiological benefit and safety, reinforcing it as a viable option for appropriate candidates, though the retrospective design limits causal inference.＋Save

PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Hearing aids·3mo agoAuditory Skills and Cognitive Functions in Adult Hearing Aid Users: A Cross-Sectional Observational Comparison StudyThis cross-sectional design cannot establish causality; audiologists should note the association between hearing aid use and cognitive function as hypothesis-generating, not as evidence to change counseling practice on cognitive benefits.＋Save
