    目的:本研究旨在调查无眩晕突发性感觉神经性听力损失(SSNHLwoV)患者的听力结果。
    方法:从2016年12月至2020年3月接受治疗的SSNHLwoV患者被前瞻性纳入一个学术三级转诊中心。51例SSNHLwoV患者完成了高剂量类固醇治疗。使用多变量Cox回归模型分析听力预后。
    结果:完成率,局部,听力恢复率为52.9%,17.6%,和29.4%的SSNHLwoV患者,分别。后半规管(PSC)的视频头脉冲测试(vHIT),高音听力损失(4-8kHz)≥30dB,平均听力阈值(0.5-1-2-4kHz)与治疗后听力的不完全恢复显着相关。在多变量分析中,PSC的vHIT(危险比[HR],14.502;95%置信区间[CI],1.371-153.355)和高音听力损失≥30dB(HR,9.170;95%CI,2.283-36.830)保持稳健。
    结论:80.4%的SSNHLwoV患者进行了异常前庭功能测试。PSCvHIT异常和高音听力损失≥30dB是导致SSNHLwoV患者听力恢复不全的独立因素。在SSNHLwoV队列中,热量测试与听力预后没有显着相关,vHIT是治疗结果的可行预测因子。
    OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the hearing outcomes in patients with sudden sensorineural hearing loss without vertigo (SSNHLwoV).
    METHODS: Patients with SSNHLwoV managed from December 2016 to March 2020 were prospectively enrolled in an academic tertiary referral center. Fifty-one patients with SSNHLwoV who completed high-dose steroid treatment. The hearing prognosis was analyzed using a multivariate Cox regression model.
    RESULTS: The rates of complete, partial, and no hearing recovery were 52.9%, 17.6%, and 29.4% in patients with SSNHLwoV, respectively. The video head impulse test (vHIT) of the posterior semicircular canal (PSC), high-tone hearing loss (4-8 kHz) ≥ 30 dB, and average hearing threshold (0.5-1-2-4 kHz) were significantly associated with incomplete recovery of hearing after treatment. In multivariate analysis, the vHIT of the PSC (hazard ratio [HR], 14.502; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.371-153.355) and high-tone hearing loss ≥ 30 dB (HR, 9.170; 95% CI, 2.283-36.830) remained robust.
    CONCLUSIONS: Abnormal vestibular function tests were performed in 80.4% of the patients with SSNHLwoV. Abnormal vHIT of the PSC and high-tone hearing loss ≥ 30 dB were independent factors resulting in incomplete recovery of hearing in patients with SSNHLwoV. In the SSNHLwoV cohort, the caloric test was not significantly associated with hearing prognosis, and vHIT was a feasible predictor of treatment outcome.

    OBJECTIVE: Suppression head impulse testing (SHIMP) is a new vestibular method capable of quantifying vestibular function. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of this test in patients with existing or newly diagnosed vestibular schwannoma (VS) patients by comparing the results with the traditionally used video head impulse test (vHIT or HIMP).
    METHODS: Fifty-five patients with unilateral VS underwent a wide battery of audiological and vestibular tests. HIMP results were evaluated using newly introduced objective guidelines based on the trace evaluation of pathological saccades. The sensitivity and specificity of HIMP and SHIMP were evaluated and compared. A new SHIMP parameter is presented; the anticompensatory saccade amplitude ratio (ASAR).
    RESULTS: We found a marked increase in specificity in HIMP testing using the objective guidelines. SHIMP testing revealed a gain threshold of 0.7 to be optimal in terms of achieving high specificity and sensitivity in relation to HIMP testing. Significant correlations were found between a low ASAR and a high degree of vestibular pathology.
    CONCLUSIONS: The SHIMP test is a viable addition to the standard HIMP test in patients with VS, especially with the addition of the ASAR, which could prove useful in monitoring the residual vestibular function.
