We describe a case of an infant with Kawasaki disease who developed sensorineural hearing loss during the acute phase. This case report shows a complication of Kawasaki disease, with few citations in literature, enhancing the importance of careful evaluation of these patients. DESCRIPTION Nineteen-...
摘要: New developments in diagnosis aid in the treatment and have improved the outlook for those patients with sensorineural hearing loss. Not all such hearing loss is untreatable and it should be approached systematically and enthusiastically. Thorough evaluation should be performed in all patients....
4 ⅐ No. 4 GJB2 (connexin 26) variants and nonsyndromic sensorineural hearing loss: A HuGE review Aileen Kenneson, PhD, Kim Van Naarden Braun, MPH, and Coleen Boyle, PhD Despite the enormous heterogeneity of genetic hearing loss, variants in one locus, Gap Junction Beta 2 or GJB2 (...
Degeneration of the sensory hair cells in the organ of Corti and their innervating afferent neurons in the cochlear spiral ganglion results in sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), which typically begins at the higher frequencies (>15 kHz) and gradually affects lower frequencies. SNHL is among the ...
There is also a recent description [40, 41] of a flecking gene giving a roaning effect where a trait defined as roan in English Cocker Spaniels was mapped to a specific region on chromosome 38. In subsequent studies, the trait that this group defined as ‘ticking’ in English Springer ...
they do not treat the cause of hearing loss. This is where recent discoveries in the molecular pathways leading to hair cell loss and regeneration have opened avenues for novel approaches to the treatment of hearing loss. They have allowed for the identification of therapeutic targets and the dev...

Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to a method and composition for preventing and/or reversing sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) or toxin-induced hearing loss. More specifically, this invention relates to the use of agents which augment inner...
Autoimmune sensorineural hearing loss Autoimmune sensorineural hearing loss has been increasingly recognized as a clinical entity since its description by McCabe in 1979. Recognition and proper management of this condition is important, as it is one of the very few forms of sensorineural hearing loss ...
