It is also frequently used in the follow-up of hearing-impaired people, hearing aid and cochlear implant users. It is aimed to translate and adapt SSQ into Turkish, and to investigate its test-retest reliability, and construct validity and reliability, and further to present associations of SSQ scores with the pure tone averages (PTA).Methods: The Turkish SSQ (Tr-SSQ) scale was administered on 114 adults including those with and without hearing loss. Cronbach's alpha was used to assess its reliability. The reliability coefficient of the scale was calculated by test-retest method. Associations of SSQ scores with PTAs in better and worse hearing ears (BHE and WHE) were evaluated.Results: Tr-SSQ presented high internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.984) and test-retest reliability (r=0.994). Tr-SSQ scores were lower in the subjects with hearing loss and correlated with PTAs. Age was found to be correlated with PTAs; regression analysis demonstrated that only WHE-PTA was extracted as explanatory variable for average Tr-SSQ, speech perception and spatial perception scores while both BHE-PTA and WHE-PTA were found to be predictors of hearing quality, but not age for any of Tr-SSQ scores.Conclusion: Tr-SSQ is a convenient tool for assessing the hearing abilities of individuals with hearing impaired.","PeriodicalId":44240,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Archives of Otorhinolaryngology","volume":"59 3","pages":"172-187"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/62/fb/tao-59-172.PMC8527537.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39676406","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study is primarily to investigate the bibliometric aspects of CR/S in the field of otorhinolaryngology (ORL) and secondarily to guide prospective authors as to which type of CR/S have better chances of acceptance and citation in the current publication climate.Methods: Bibliometric and citation analysis of CR/S published in Science Citation Index (SCI) journals of ORL covering the years of 2012-2016 was conducted.Results: There were 1332 (8.9%) CR/S among 14900 publications in 11 SCI ORL journals published between January 1st, 2012 and December 31st, 2016. The most common published field and subject were the 'pediatric ORL' (33.2%) and 'rare cases/conditions' (47.1%) respectively. 'General ORL' (5.13) and 'treatment' (4.93) categories had the highest citations. Only 10% of CR/S had ≥10 citations. The mean citation counts were positively correlated with impact factors of journals (r=0.131, p<0.001), mean number of authors (r=0.151, p<0.001), mean number of cases (r=0.192, p<0.001), mean number of references (r=0.315, p<0.001) and mean number of Web of Science visits (r=0.291, p<0.001).Conclusion: Although CR/S provides low citation rates in ORL SCI journals, they may serve important topics in terms of diagnosis, treatment, or complications. The findings and the main discussions of this study may direct the rationale for the consistent publication of CR/S in the evidence-based medicine era.","PeriodicalId":44240,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Archives of Otorhinolaryngology","volume":"59 3","pages":"193-202"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/c1/d7/tao-59-193.PMC8527534.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39676408","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The articles from the database were screened and filtered by two authors according to the selection criteria. A spreadsheet was created to collect the data including demographic characteristics, the sensitivity and specificity of TINF for diagnosing and localizing a CSF leak, the protocol of applying TINF, and the complications.Results: After excluding duplicates and articles that did not meet our selection criteria, we included five reports in the final analysis. The average age of the 94 participants was 39.5, and there was an equal distribution of males and females. The sensitivity of TINF to make a preoperative diagnosis of CSF leak was 100%, and it was 97% to localize the site intraoperatively. Complications associated with TINF were not reported in any of the reports. This review showed a grade C recommendation based on five case series.Conclusion: Based on the current evidence, TINF cannot be recommended for standard clinical practice. It can, however, be considered in situations where other gold standard tools are unavailable since it is feasible and easy to use. A standardized control trial should be conducted to yield additional unbiased evidence.","PeriodicalId":44240,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Archives of Otorhinolaryngology","volume":"59 3","pages":"223-229"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/51/2f/tao-59-223.PMC8527542.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39572381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, the participants' speech recognition thresholds were measured with a matrix test while wearing their hearing aid under three different listening conditions in which the phases of speech and noise stimuli were changed with constant and fluctuating noise.Results: Speech-recognition thresholds were better in fluctuating noise than in constant noise in all listening conditions, and this difference was statistically significant (p=0.02). In both types of noise, speech-recognition thresholds of bilateral hearing aid users (n=29) were lower (better) than those of unilateral hearing aid users (n=13) under three different listening conditions, but there was no statistically significant difference (p=0.67). Speech-recognition thresholds without hearing aids were statistically higher (worse) than those obtained with hearing aids (p=0.001).Conclusion: Since the Turkish matrix sentence test gives useful results, this test can be used in the diagnosis, follow-up, and rehabilitation planning of hearing aid users. We observed that speech intelligibility was better, although there were differences among those with hearing loss when the speech test was conducted in fluctuating background noise with the Turkish matrix sentence test.","PeriodicalId":44240,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Archives of Otorhinolaryngology","volume":"59 2","pages":"133-138"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/ea/fc/tao-59-133.PMC8329397.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39306933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The questionnaire was sent via e-mail to the program directors of all the 95 ORL residency departments in Turkey.Results: A total of 60 (63.2%) program directors completed the questionnaire. We found that allergy testing and immunotherapy had been performed in 70% and 28.3%, respectively, at any time to date. The most common reason for discontinuing in allergy practices over time was \"the changes introduced by the Turkish Social Security Institute as stated in the healthcare implementation communiqué\" and \"the difficulties in obtaining vaccine supplies from companies\". Of all departments, allergy testing, immunotherapy, nasal smear, and nasal provocation tests were performed only by 35%, 8.3%, 28.3%, and 1.7%, respectively.Conclusion: Allergy practices have been increasingly used, especially in the 2000s, but came to a standstill upon the changes introduced by the Turkish Social Security Institute as stated in the healthcare implementation communiqué. These findings suggest that allergy training, in the recent years, has remained in the background in ORL residency programs in Turkey.

The etiology is usually a stapes footplate fistula which enables microorganisms to pass into the inner ear containing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), causing repeated attacks of meningitis. Radiological signs of the fistula are not obvious and are not reported in detail in the literature. The aim of the study is to investigate the radiological features of stapes footplate fistula in inner ear malformations.Methods: Radiological findings were analyzed for seventeen patients with inner ear malformations (IEMs) operated on because of recurrent meningitis. Using this information, images of 1,010 patients with IEMs were retrospectively reviewed to investigate the radiological findings of stapes footplate fistula and their relationship to IEMs. They were classified according to the Sennaroglu classification system, and according to different stages of stapes footplate fistula.Results: In the case of a stapes footplate cyst, computerized tomography shows an opacity at the oval window. On magnetic resonance imaging, a fluid filled cystic structure continuous with and having similar signal characteristics to the CSF in the inner ear is a pathognomonic finding of a stapes footplate cyst. It is most commonly found in common cavity anomaly (18.2%); the second most frequent finding is incomplete partition type I (15%). And it can even be seen in cases of cochlear aplasia where only the vestibule is present.Conclusion: If the history reveals recurrent meningitis, particular attention should be given to the oval window area, where an opacity, cyst or a leaking lesion should be looked for on the imaging. It is the responsibility of the otolaryngologist to notice these findings, and to operate on the patient to prevent further attacks of meningitis.","PeriodicalId":44240,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Archives of Otorhinolaryngology","volume":"59 2","pages":"95-102"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/06/36/tao-59-95.PMC8329392.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39307025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
