Aim- To study the prevalence of Sensorineural Hearing Loss in patients with Diabetes Mellitus and to compare the degree and severity of hearing loss in patients with diabetes controlled on medications with uncontrolled disease Methodology- Prospective observational study was conducted to assess prevalence of sensory-neural hearing loss in patients with diabetes mellitus attending ENT OPD at GRMC Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India from December 2020 to May 2022. Auditory function was measured with Pure Tone Audiometry (PTA) Among 280 patients with Diabetes mellitus, Results- 184 patients had Sensory-neural hearing loss (65.70%). As the disease duration increased above 10 years, incidence of SNHL increased to 88.4% in both ears. Sensorineural hearing loss is Conclusionprevalent in 65.71% of type II diabetic patients. Sensorineural hearing loss in diabetes mellitus is usually gradually progressive involving high frequency thresholds. Hearing threshold increases with advanced age and increased duration of diabetes. Patients with poor control [HbA1c greater than 8.5%] of their glycemic status had raised auditory thresholds.

Aim- To study the etiological factors leading to deviated nasal septum, to study the clinical symptoms associated with DNS, to study the prevalence of DNS in different age groups and gender and to study the outcome of surgical management on symptomatic deviated nasal septum. The study was done prospectively for 18 months Methodology- and retrospectively for 12 months which involved 60 patients divided into 3 groups of 20 patients each who underwent surgeries as follows: Group A- Septoplasty, Group B- Septoplasty and inferior turbinectomy, Group C- Septoplasty, Inferior turbinectomy and FESS. It was Results- observed that In Group A, 14(70.0%) patients had reduction in symptoms of DNS after undergoing septoplasty. In Group B, 18(90.0%) patients had reduction in symptoms of DNS after undergoing inferior turbinectomy along with septoplasty. In Group C, 19 (95.0%) patients had reduction in symptoms of DNS after undergoing septoplasty along with FESS and Inferior turbinectomy. There was statistically signicant association seen between reduction of symptoms after septoplasty and groups (p=0.044). The results of the study concluded that septoplasty along wi Conclusion- th FESS and inferior turbinectomy is the most effective surgery in reducing the symptoms of DNS post-operatively as compared to septoplasty and inferior turbinectomy where as septoplasty alone has minimal efcacy in reducing the symptoms post operatively
