Nevertheless, complex sound signals perception, such as music perception, remains challenging for cochlear implant users.ObjectiveTo assess the benefit of a tonotopic map on music perception in new cochlear implant users.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsA prospective, randomized, double-blind, 2-period crossover study including 26 new cochlear implant users was performed over a 6-month period (June 2021 to November 2021). An anatomical tonotopic map was created using postoperative flat-panel computed tomography and a reconstruction software based on Greenwood function. New cochlear implant users older than 18 years with bilateral severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss or complete hearing loss for less than 5 years were selected in the University Hospital Centre of Rennes in France. The trial was conducted from June to November 2021 (inclusion) and to February 2022 (end of the assessment procedure at 12 weeks postactivation), and the analysis itself was completed in December 2022.InterventionEach participant was randomized to receive a conventional map followed by a tonotopic map or vice versa.Main Outcomes and MeasuresParticipants performed pitch-scaling tasks (multidimensional qualitative assessment, melodic contour identification, melodic recognition test) after 6 weeks of each setting.ResultsThirteen participants were randomized to each sequence. Two of the 26 participants recruited (1 in each sequence) had to be excluded due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The multidimensional qualitative assessment (Gabrielsson test), melodic contour identification, and melodic recognition scores were significantly higher with the tonotopic setting than the conventional one (mean effect [ME], 7.8; 95% CI, 5.0-10.5; ME, 12.1%; 95% CI, 5.7%-18.4%; ME, 14.4%, 95% CI, 8.5%-20.2%; and ME, 2.1, 95% CI, 1.7-2.5, respectively). Among the different dimensions evaluated by the Gabrielsson test, the mean scores for clarity, spaciousness, fullness, nearness, and total impression were significantly higher with tonotopic fitting. Ninety-two percent of the participants kept the tonotopy-based map after the study period.ConclusionsIn this randomized clinical trial of patients with new cochlear implants, a tonotopic-based fitting was associated with better results in perception of complex sound signals such as music listening experience.Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: <jats:ext-link xmlns:xlink=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink\" ext-link-type=\"uri\" xlink:href=\"https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04922619?tab=history\">NCT04922619</jats:ext-link>","PeriodicalId":14632,"journal":{"name":"JAMA otolaryngology-- head & neck surgery","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":7.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142200106","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data were analyzed from July 1, 2023, through April 1, 2024. Patients were classified as having CRS if they had at least 2 diagnoses during the study period. Those with a diagnosis of CRS before the study period were excluded. Patients were propensity score matched (1:5) with patients without CRS for age, sex, race, and annual household income.Main Outcomes and MeasuresThe primary outcome was the development of anxiety and depression. Patients with CRS were counted as having the primary outcome if it occurred after the criteria for CRS diagnosis were fulfilled. Multivariate logistic regression and survival analysis were performed to determine the odds ratios (ORs) and hazard ratios (HRs) of anxiety and depression.

Patients 18 years or older with primary hyperparathyroidism who underwent parathyroidectomy between January 2009 and October 2021 were considered. Additional inclusion criteria were having clear sagittal view of the adenoma candidate on US, confirmation of the gland of origin intraoperatively, and confirmation of hypercellular parathyroid on final pathology.

Of the surgically identified superior PTAs, 144 (70.6%) had a definable angle, and of the surgically identified inferior PTAs, 170 (71.4%) had a definable angle. The receiver operating characteristic analysis found 94° as the optimized angle for differentiating true negatives from true positives, with an overall sensitivity of 74% and specificity of 72%. This supported using 90° as a break point for US review. True positives were considered superior adenomas with an angle greater than 90°; true negatives were inferior adenomas with an angle less than 90°.
