Three surgical approaches: cochleostomy (C), round window (RW), and extended round window (ERW); and two electrodes types: lateral wall (LW) and perimodiolar (PM), account for the vast majority of cochlear implantations. The goal of this study was to analyze the relationship between surgical approach and electrode type with final intracochlear position of the electrode array and subsequent hearing outcomes.', 'Comparative longitudinal study.', 'One hundred postlingually implanted adult patients were enrolled in the study. From the postoperative scan, intracochlear electrode location was determined and using rigid registration, transformed back to the preoperative computed tomography which had intracochlear anatomy (scala tympani and scala vestibuli) specified using a statistical shape model based on 10 microCT scans of human cadaveric cochleae. Likelihood ratio chi-square statistics were used to evaluate for differences in electrode placement with respect to surgical approach (C, RW, ERW) and type of electrode (LW, PM).', 'Electrode placement completely within the scala tympani (ST) was more common for LW than were PM designs (89% vs. 58%; P\u2009<\u20090.001). RW and ERW approaches were associated with lower rates of electrode placement outside the ST than was the cochleostomy approach (9%, 16%, and 63%, respectively; P\u2009<\u20090.001). This pattern held true regardless of whether the implant was LW or PM. When examining electrode placement and hearing outcome, those with electrode residing completely within the ST had better consonant-nucleus-consonant word scores than did patients with any number of electrodes located outside the ST (P\u2009=\u20090.045).

Do impact of electrode design and surgical approach on scalar location and cochlear implant outcomes?


Ex Input:
Normal glucose metabolism depends on pancreatic secretion of insulin and glucagon. The bihormonal hypothesis states that while lack of insulin leads to glucose underutilisation, glucagon excess is the principal factor in diabetic glucose overproduction. A recent study reported that streptozotocin-treated glucagon receptor knockout mice have normal glucose tolerance. We investigated the impact of acute disruption of glucagon secretin or action in a mouse model of severe diabetes by three different approaches: (1) alpha cell elimination; (2) glucagon immunoneutralisation; and (3) glucagon receptor antagonism, in order to evaluate the effect of these on glucose tolerance.', 'Severe diabetes was induced in transgenic and wild-type mice by streptozotocin. Glucose metabolism was investigated using OGTT in transgenic mice with the human diphtheria toxin receptor expressed in proglucagon producing cells allowing for diphtheria toxin (DT)-induced alpha cell ablation and in mice treated with either a specific high affinity glucagon antibody or a specific glucagon receptor antagonist.', 'Near-total alpha cell elimination was induced in transgenic mice upon DT administration and resulted in a massive decrease in pancreatic glucagon content. Oral glucose tolerance in diabetic mice was neither affected by glucagon immunoneutralisation, glucagon receptor antagonism, nor alpha cell removal, but did not deteriorate further compared with mice with intact alpha cell mass.

Does acute disruption of glucagon secretion or action improve glucose tolerance in an insulin-deficient mouse model of diabetes?

Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms of nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain are common in patients with orthostatic intolerance (OI), including neurally mediated hypotension (NMH) and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). Autonomic dysregulation is considered the underlying pathophysiology behind the cardiovascular symptoms of POTS. Because the autonomic nervous system also regulates GI motility, we hypothesized that patients with POTS and GI symptoms will have evidence of autonomic dysmotility of the upper GI tract.', 'Thirty-five subjects with OI and GI symptoms were studied. All the subjects had a 24-hour antroduodenal manometry (ADM) study, in conjunction with pharmacologic challenge and autonomic and tilt table testing (TTT).', 'The mean subject age was 16.2\u200a±\u200a2.8 years (range 10-23.8 years), and male to female ratio was 10:25. TTT was abnormal in all the 35 subjects, whereas Valsalva testing was abnormal (+40 mmHG) in 21 of 34 (62%) subjects, and corrected QT interval was ≥0.44 seconds in 19 of 35 (54%) subjects. During TTT, GI symptoms were reproduced in 31 of 35 (89%) studies. ADM was found to be abnormal at baseline, before the TTT in 5 of 35 (14%) subjects, whereas it became abnormal in 23 of 34 (68%) subjects during TTT. In addition, the expected response to the pharmacologic challenge was limited. Overall, ADM was abnormal in 26 of 35 (74%) patients either at baseline or during TTT in these subjects with OI.
