We measured fingernail metal levels, Békésy-type pure-tone thresholds and distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) levels in 59 subjects residing the gold mining community of Bonanza, Nicaragua. Auditory testing revealed widespread hearing loss cohort. Nail concentrations (mercury, lead, aluminum, manganese arsenic) far exceeded reference levels. No relationship was found between auditory test results for group as a whole. Statistically significant relationships were DPOAE response...
Abnormal hearing tests have been noted in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients several studies, but the nature of deficit has not clearly defined. The authors performed a cross-sectional study both HIV+ and HIV- individuals Tanzania by using an audiological test battery. hypothesized that adults would higher prevalence abnormal central peripheral results compared with controls. In addition, they anticipated assessments increase antiretroviral therapy (ART) use treatment for...
Although racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic disparities in visual impairment have been described adults, few studies focused on the adolescent population, which may provide insight into emergence of vision health inequities.To describe among children US.This was a cross-sectional study adolescents from 2005 to 2008 National Health Nutrition Examination Survey. Participants were aged 12 18 years with completed function questionnaire eye examination. Data analyses conducted January 19 July 20,...
In a cross-sectional study of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected adults, the authors showed lower distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) in HIV+ individuals compared with controls as well findings consistent central auditory processing deficit adults on antiretroviral therapy. The hypothesized that children would also have higher prevalence abnormal and peripheral hearing test results HIV- controls.Pure-tone thresholds, DPOAEs, tympanometry were performed 244 subjects...

Virtual visits (VVs) are necessitated due to the public health crisis and social distancing mandates COVID-19. However, these have been rare in ophthalmology. Over 3.5 years of conducting >350 ophthalmological VVs, our group has gained numerous insights into best practices. This communication shares experiences with medical community support patient care during this difficult time beyond. We highlight that mastering technological platform choice, optimizing lighting, camera positioning, "eye...
Abstract: Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a complex, multi-system disorder with well-described underlying genetic etiology. While retinal findings are common in TSC and important establishing the diagnosis, also has many potential neuro-ophthalmology manifestations. The manifestations of can have significant impact on visual function sometimes sign serious neurological disease. purpose this review to describe neuro-ophthalmological TSC. These include optic nerve hamartomas, elevated...
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has significantly disrupted the delivery of healthcare. Although most nonurgent ophthalmology visits at Boston Children's Hospital were canceled, premature infants risk for retinopathy prematurity (ROP) still required timely, in-person care during initial 3-month period infection surge in Massachusetts. purpose current study was to report our protocols mitigating exposure severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) between and eye...
Objective: Our objective was to obtain reliable threshold measurements without a sound booth by using passive noise-attenuating hearing protector combined with in-ear 1/3-octave band noise verify the ear canal suitably quiet. Design: We deployed laptop-based testing systems Tanzania as part of study HIV infection and hearing. An probe containing microphone used under for both audiometry. The spectrum from displayed on operator's screen acceptable levels in grey unacceptable red. Operators...
