Patient perception of disability following acoustic (vestibular) schwannoma removal via gamma knife and microsurgical techniques

This study evaluates patient's short and long-term balance function after microsurgical tumor removal and gamma knife radiosurgery using an unvalidated qualitative questionnaire and the Dizziness Handicap Inventory.

Cisplatin ototoxicity and hair cell regeneration in the zebrafish lateral line

Hair cell death and regeneration on the zebrafish posterior lateral line was investigated after cisplatin administration. Hair cell regeneration was first observed by 24 hours of recovery and was further analyzed after specific recovery intervals. Disruption of the notch signaling pathways by the y-secretase inhibitor DAPT resulted in an increase in hair cells at three days of recovery.
