OBJECTIVE: To investigate the perceptions of parents towards universal new-born screening for hearing loss in Nigeria. METHODS: A systematic review was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) system. A comprehensive search was undertaken using multiple databases (National Library of Medicine, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Scopus, Google Scholar, and MEDLINE) published in English between 2009 and 2018. The sample size of 10 studies were retrieved by using a predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, keywords, and Boolean operator search patterns...

BACKGROUND: Long-term assessments of children with cochlear implants (CI) are important inputs to help guide families and professionals in therapeutic and counselling processes. Based on these premises, the primary aim of the present study was to assess the long-term speech and language outcomes in a sample of prelingually deaf or hard of hearing (DHH) adolescents and young adults with unilateral or bilateral implantation in childhood. The secondary aim was to investigate the correlations of age at implantation with long-term speech and language outcomes...

OBJECTIVES: Despite longstanding clinical gestalt of a relationship between rhinitis and Eustachian tube dysfunction (ETD), population-level evidence supporting this connection is lacking, particularly among adolescents. We aimed to investigate the association between rhinitis and ETD in a nationally-representative sample of United States adolescents. METHODS: We performed cross-sectional analyses of 2005-2006 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data (n = 1955, ages 12-19)...

OBJECTIVES: The main aim of the study was to compare hearing outcome between a healthy control group and patients treated with transmyringeal ventilation tubes, 25 years after primary surgery. Another aim was to analyse the relation between ventilation tube treatment in childhood and the occurrence of persistent middle ear pathology 25 years later. METHODS: In 1996, children treated with transmyringeal ventilation tubes were recruited for a prospective study on the outcome of ventilation tube treatment...

OBJECTIVES: Children with aural foreign bodies (AFB) frequently present to the Emergency Department (ED). Our objective was to analyze patterns of pediatric AFB management at our center to characterize children who are commonly referred to Otolaryngology. METHODS: A retrospective chart review of all children (ages 0-18 years) presenting with AFB to the tertiary care Pediatric ED over a three-year period was performed. Demographics, symptoms, type of AFB, retrieval strategy, complications, need for Otolaryngology referral, and, use of sedation, were evaluated with respect to outcomes...

Management of tongue venous malformations can be challenging in the pediatric population due to their heterogeneity in presentation, extent of involvement and functional compromise. It is important to recognize the value of various treatment options in order to guide management of each patient in an individualized fashion. Here we describe a series of patients with tongue venous malformations that are managed using diverse modalities to illustrate the relative benefits and risks of each technique. The challenges of venous malformation treatment can be mitigated by tailoring the approach to each individual patient and malformation...

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate thyroplasty with autologous cartilage implant in young children. METHODS: This retrospective study included all patients aged <10 years who underwent thyroplasty, in a tertiary care center, between 1999 and 2019 and had a postoperative follow-up at least one year later. Morphological evaluation was based on fiberoptic laryngoscopy and laryngeal ultrasound. Functional outcomes included parental evaluation of laryngeal signs by visual analogue scale and dysphonia ratings on the Grade, Roughness, Breathiness, Asthenia, and Strain scale...

INTRODUCTION: Otitis media with effusion is one of the most common diseases among children. The purpose of this research is to investigate whether the resolvement of conductive hearing loss from the insertion of a ventilation tube also improves central auditory processing disorders in children with otitis media with effusion. METHOD: In this cross-sectional study, 20 children between 6 and 12 years old were diagnosed with otitis media with effusion and 20 normal children were included in the study...

STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective chart review of children who underwent ssLTR or dsLTR from 2014 to 2018 at a single institution. METHODS: Costs related to LTR and post-operative care up to one year after tracheostomy decannulation were extrapolated from charges billed to the patient...

OBJECTIVES: Evidence suggests that Cochlear Implantation (CI) is a beneficial approach for auditory and speech skills improvement in children with severe to profound hearing loss. However, it remains controversial if implantation in children <12 months is safe and effective compared to older children. The present study aimed to determine whether children's ages affect surgical complications and auditory and speech development. METHODS: The current multicenter study enrolled 86 children who underwent CI surgery at <12 months of age (group A) and 362 children who underwent implantation between 12 and 24 months of age (group B)...

OBJECTIVE: Children with disabilities may face increased social challenges among peers. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between hearing loss and reports of bullying victimization among adolescents in the United States. METHODS: The 2021 National Health Interview Survey was a nationally representative cross-sectional survey administered to parents/caregivers of adolescent children ages 12 to 17. The effects of hearing loss on reports of bully victimization were assessed using multivariable logistic regression models, controlling for demographic characteristics including socioeconomic status and health status...

OBJECTIVES: Children with cochlear implants have limitations in emotional and cognitive social maturity which impact on their future emotional, social, and cognitive development. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a unified protocol for online transdiagnostic treatment program on social-emotional skills (self-regulation, social competence, responsibility, sympathy) and parent-child interaction (conflict, dependence, closeness) in children with cochlear implant. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The present study was a quasi-experimental design with a pre-test-post-test and follow-up...

INTRODUCTION: Adenotonsillectomy is the first-line treatment for pediatric obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The postoperative course may be complicated by hypoxia, requiring intervention. Positive pressure respiratory support (PPS) could be used to bridge the postoperative period and avoid invasive mechanical ventilation; however, the safety of PPS following tonsillectomy has not been established. Objective To review the incidence of complications and risk factors associated with PPS use immediately after tonsillectomy...

BACKGROUND: Hearing loss (HL) is the most common sensorineural disorder in human. It is estimated that genetic factors contribute to over 50% of prelingual hearing loss. Most of dominant HHL patients manifest postlingual progressive hearing loss that mainly affect high frequencies. However, mutations in a few dominant HL genes, such as WFS1, TECTA and DIAPH1, cause distinct audiogram that primarily affects the low and middle frequencies. METHODS: We recruited twelve independent HL families with worse low or middle frequency audiograms...

PURPOSE: This study investigated the correlation between the diameter of the bony cochlear nerve canal (BCNC), as determined by Temporal bone CT, and MRI findings of cochlear nerves (CN) in children with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A prospective study design was followed. Radiological data (Temporal bone CT and MRI) of fifty children with sensorineural hearing loss (age <18 y) were included in the study. All patients (100 ears) underwent routine MRI protocol in addition to 3D CISS (3-D constructive interference in steady state)...
