“…This hearing loss is most commonly bilateral and may affect low or high frequencies. In a study on 19 children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis, a statistically significant hearing loss at very high frequencies (12 500 and 16 000 Hz) was found, suggesting inner ear involvement (Ikiz et al, 2007). In addition, there is an increased prevalence of abnormalities in tympanograms (Siamopoulou-Mavridou et al, 1990;Ikiz et al, 2007).…”

In addition, there is an increased prevalence of abnormalities in tympanograms (Siamopoulou-Mavridou et al, 1990;Ikiz et al, 2007). The cause of this is unclear but it may be due to Eustachian tube dysfunction or rheumatic involvement of middle-ear joints (the incudomallear and incudostapedial joints) (Colletti et al, 1997).…”

Immune-mediated audiovestibular disorders in the paediatric population: A review

Recent studies show that several audiovestibular pathologies in the paediatric population may be immune-mediated. This is even more probable if the pathology is associated with a coexisting systemic autoimmune disorder. At this time, however, the current literature is limited to a few case reports, and little is known with regard to prevalence, diagnosis, and management of immune-mediated inner-ear disorders in children. This review aims to shed some light on clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of paediatric immune-mediated inner-ear disorders. Sudden and progressive sensorineural hearing loss is discussed, in addition to some of the systemic autoimmune disorders commonly associated with immune-mediated audiovestibular pathology such as Cogan's syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus, Behcet's disease, Sjogren's syndrome, and juvenile idiopathic arthritis.

“…133 The inter-ossicular joints may also be affected in the ears of patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis. 139 Flexibility in ossicular replacement prostheses An extreme example of loss of joint flexibility in the human middle ear is reconstruction with a total ossicular replacement prosthesis (TORP). In ears reconstructed with a TORP, a 10-fold increase in pressure at the oval window (the inner ear having been removed) has been measured when pressure in the ear canal is varied.…”

Introduction and aims: Tympanic middle ears have evolved multiple times independently among vertebrates, and share common features. We review flexibility within tympanic middle ears and consider its physiological and clinical implications.Comparative anatomy: The chain of conducting elements is flexible: even the 'single ossicle' ears of most nonmammalian tetrapods are functionally 'double ossicle' ears due to mobile articulations between the stapes and extrastapes; there may also be bending within individual elements.Simple models: Simple models suggest that flexibility will generally reduce the transmission of sound energy through the middle ear, although in certain theoretical situations flexibility within or between conducting elements might improve transmission. The most obvious role of middle-ear flexibility is to protect the inner ear from high-amplitude displacements.Clinical implications: Inter-ossicular joint dysfunction is associated with a number of pathologies in humans. We examine attempts to improve prosthesis design by incorporating flexible components.

İkiz ve arkadaşları 23 , jüvenil RA'lı hastalar ile kontrol grubu arasında OAE ölçümle-ri arasında anlamlı fark bulamamışlar. Biz de OAE ölçümlerimizde iki grup arasında anlamlı bir fark bulamadık.…”

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the rate and type of the hearing loss in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA); and to analyze whether these hearing loss rates were different from control group or not. Materials and methods:The study included 50 RA patients and 34 healthy control subjects. All two groups underwent, pure tone audiometric test between 250-8.000 Hz frequencies; stapes reflex test and otoacoustic emissions.
