Abstract Age, hearing loss, sex, BMI, and head size are very important parameters that influence auditory evoked potential (AEP) variables. Although the correlation of BMI and head size with AEP parameters has been studied recently, there is no common consensus on it. A few studies show a positive correlation, whereas others report a weaker correlation. Further, normative values of the V/I ratio a...... hiện toàn bộ

Adenoidal hypertrophy is a common condition in children and can cause symptoms such as mouth breathing, nasal discharge, snoring, sleep apnea, and hyponasal speech. The curettage adenoidectomy has some disadvantages, especially the intranasal extension of the adenoid tissue that makes this technique inadequate. This study is conducted to evaluate and compare between assisted suction coagulation ad...... hiện toàn bộ
Hearing loss and hypertension: exploring the linkageThe Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology - Tập 37 - Trang 1-6 - 2021
John Adekunle Babarinde, Adebolajo A. Adeyemo, Abiodun Moshood Adeoye
The inner ear vascular system may be disrupted by systemic hypertension causing inner ear hemorrhage and resulting in progressive or sudden hearing loss. Constriction of the labyrinthine artery secondary to atherosclerosis seen in high BMI and waist/hip circumference—risk factors of hypertension—could also occur with resultant hearing loss. Thus, hypertension could predispose to increased risk of ...... hiện toàn bộ
Voice outcome following electrical stimulation-supported voice therapy in cases of unilateral vocal fold paralysisThe Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology - Tập 32 - Trang 322-334 - 2016
Yehia A. Ras, Mohamed Imam, Manal M. El-Banna, Nesrine H. Hamouda
Abstract The current lack of knowledge on the effects of transcutaneous electrical stimulation-supported voice therapy (TESVT) on voice production, coupled with increasing anecdotal reports of TESVT use with voice disorders, prompted this research. The aim of this study was to compare the therapeutic value of conventional voice therapy (CVT) and TESVT on voice outcome in patients with unilateral v...... hiện toàn bộ
The bucket test reinterpreted: a study on benign paroxysmal positional vertigo and Ménière’s disease patientsThe Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology - Tập 37 - Trang 1-8 - 2021
Angel Castro-Urquizo, Erika Celis-Aguilar, Guillermo Alejandro Rubio-Partida
The bucket test is a simple and practical instrument to evaluate vestibular diseases; additionally, it could be a useful tool in the evaluation of the vertigo patient. Unfortunately, the bucket test still lacks standardization. The objective of this study was to evaluate and to interpret the subjective visual vertical (SVV) using the bucket test in benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) and M...... hiện toàn bộ
