    Abstract Objective: We aimed to analyse the association between infections and the subsequent risk of giant cell arteritis (GCA) and/or polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) by a systematic review and a meta-analysis of observational studies.
    Methods: Two databases (Medline and Embase) were systematically reviewed. Epidemiological studies studying the association between any prior infection and the onset of GCA/PMR were eligible. Risk of bias was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa quality assessment scale. Outcomes and pooled statistics were reported as OR and their 95% CI.
    Results: Eleven studies (10 case-control studies and one cohort study) were analysed, seven of them were included in the meta-analysis. Eight were at low risk of bias. A positive and significant association was found between prior overall infections and prior
    Conclusion: Our study showed a positive association between the risk of GCA and prior overall infections (occurring in the year before), and prior HZ infections. Infections might be the reflect of an altered immunity of GCA patients or trigger the disease. However, reverse causation cannot be excluded.CRD42023404089.

    Abstract Congenital cholesteatoma accounts for 25% of cholesteatoma cases in children. Transcanal Endoscopic Ear Surgery (TEES) is ideal for these patients because it offers a wide endoscopic view of the middle ear and a minimally invasive approach. The two main limitations are the loss of one operative hand and a narrow external auditory canal in younger children. Here, we present the case of a 3-year-old patient with a Potsic stage III congenital cholesteatoma adherent to the incus and branches of the stapes. A robotic-assisted TEES procedure was performed, during which a robotic arm with 6 degrees of freedom held a 0°, 2.9 mm wide endoscope, enabling the surgeon to work in a narrow environment with both hands. The procedure's duration was 2 h and 9 min, including 16 min for the installation and draping of the robotic arm. After a trans-canal approach, the cholesteatoma was dissected from the ossicles using both a needle (or sickle knife) and suction to stabilize the ossicles and limit the risk of hearing trauma. The cholesteatoma was debulked to reduce its size, allowing it to be pushed under the malleus anteriorly and then separated from other adherences before removal. A tragal cartilage graft was used to reinforce the tympanic membrane.

When analysed separately, hospital-treated and community-treated infections, were still significantly associated with the risk of GCA, but only when infections occurring within the year prior to diagnosis were considered (pooled OR (95% CI) 1.92 (1.67 to 2.21); 1.67 (1.54 to 1.82), respectively). This association was no longer found when infections occurring within the year prior to diagnosis were excluded.Conclusion Our study showed a positive association between the risk of GCA and prior overall infections (occurring in the year before), and prior HZ infections.

    Abstract Sjögren syndrome is a phenotypically varied autoimmune disorder that can occur alone in primary Sjögren syndrome or in association with other connective tissue diseases (CTDs), including rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and systemic sclerosis (SSc). The estimation of the prevalence and incidence of Sjögren syndrome varies depending on diagnostic criteria and study design, making it difficult to estimate geographical and temporal trends. Nonetheless, disease phenotype is influenced by geographical origin, which is a risk factor for systemic activity. Whether mortality in primary Sjögren syndrome is increased compared with that of the general population is not yet known, but extra-glandular manifestations, in particular lymphomas, are clear risk factors for mortality. In CTDs associated with Sjögren syndrome, lymphoma risk seems higher than that of patients with CTD alone, and there is potentially lower disease activity in SLE with Sjögren syndrome and in SSc with Sjögren syndrome than in SLE or SSc alone.

    Abstract Objective: To evaluate long-term hearing outcomes following cochlear implantation in patients with neurofibromatosis type 2 and ipsilateral vestibular schwannoma.
    Study design: Retrospective study.
    Setting: Tertiary general hospital.
    Methods: Twenty-two patients undergoing cochlear implantation between 2004 and 2018 with at least 1 year of follow-up were included. Patients were categorized as "users" or "nonusers" of their cochlear implant (CI). For users, speech perception (disyllabic words) without lip-reading was assessed in quiet conditions 1-year postimplantation, and annually thereafter. CI users were classified into 2 groups on the basis of speech intelligibility (≥40% or <40%). Demographic data, treatment options, and tumor size were also recorded.
    Results: One year after implantation, 16 (73%) patients used their CI daily. Twelve of these patients had a speech intelligibility ≥40% (mean: 74 ± 21.9%). Three had a Koos stage IV tumor. At the last visit (mean duration of follow-up: 6 ± 5 years), 12 of these 16 patients were still using their implant daily, and 6 had a speech intelligibility ≥40%. No predictive factors for good performance at 1 year or performance stability were identified.
    Conclusion: Neurofibromatosis type 2 is a complex disease profoundly affecting patient quality of life, and cochlear implantation should always be considered on a case-by-case basis. In some individuals, cochlear implantation can provide good speech intelligibility for extended periods, even posttreatment or in cases of large tumors.

    Abstract Objective: To assess trauma patterns associated with the insertion of lateral wall electrode arrays. The study focused on 3 categories-scala tympani (ST), intermediate, and scala vestibuli (SV)-to identify traumatic patterns and contributing factors.
    Study design: Retrospective study.
    Setting: Data from 106 cochlear implant recipients at a tertiary otologic center.
    Methods: Demographic and surgical data were collected from recipients who underwent cochlear implantation manually and with RobOtol®. Measurements included cochlear dimensions, angular depth of insertion, and position of the first electrode. Three-dimensional reconstructions were used to analyze the electrode array location relative to the basilar membrane, categorized into ST, intermediate, and SV electrodes. Nontraumatic insertion was defined as all electrodes in the ST, while traumatic insertions had 1 or more electrodes in intermediate or SV locations.
    Results: Out of 106 cases, 44% had nontraumatic and 56% had traumatic insertions. Demographic and surgical characteristics showed no association with traumatic insertions. A deeper position of the first electrode, relative to the round window, was associated with traumatic insertions (P = .03). Three trauma patterns were observed: distal (facing the apical electrodes), proximal (facing the middle electrodes around 180°), and distal/proximal.
    Conclusion: This study considers the intermediate position which could be associated with basilar membrane lesions. Risk zones for intracochlear trauma with lateral wall arrays were identified distally and proximally. Traumatic insertions were independently linked to deeper array placement. Future studies should explore whether gentler insertion, without insisting on further electrode array insertion depth, could reduce the trauma during cochlear implantation.

    Abstract Introduction: Auditory performance in noise of cochlear implant recipients can be assessed with the adaptive Matrix test (MT); however, when the speech-to-noise ratio (SNR) exceeds 15 dB, the background noise has any negative impact on the speech recognition. Here, we aim to evaluate the predictive power of aided pure-tone audiometry and speech recognition in quiet, and establish cut-off values for both tests that indicate whether auditory performance in noise can be assessed using the Matrix sentence test in a diffuse noise environment.
    Methods: Here, we assessed the power of pure-tone audiometry and speech recognition in quiet to predict the response to the MT. Ninety-eight cochlear implant recipients were assessed using different sound processors from Advanced Bionics (n=56) and Cochlear (n=42). Auditory tests were performed at least 1-year after cochlear implantation or upgrading the sound processor to ensure the best benefit of the implant. Auditory assessment of the implanted ear in free-field conditions included: pure-tone average (PTA), speech discrimination score (SDS) in quiet at 65 dB, and speech recognition threshold (SRT) in noise that is the SNR at which the patient can correctly recognize 50% of the words using the MT in a diffuse sound field.
    Results: The SRT in noise was determined in sixty patients (61%) and undetermined in 38 (39%) using the MT. When cut-off values for PTA <36 dB and SDS >41% were used separately, they were able to predict a positive response to the MT in 83% of recipients; using both cut-off values together, the predictive value reached 92%.
    Discussion/conclusion: As the pure-tone audiometry is standardized universally and the speech recognition in quiet could vary depending on the language used; we propose that the MT should be performed in recipients with PTA <36 dB, and in recipients with PTA >36 dB, a list of Matrix sentences at a fixed SNR should be presented to determine the percentage of words understood. This approach should enable clinicians to obtain information about auditory performance in noise whenever possible.
