    Abstract Background: Despite the proven audiological benefits of Percutaneous Bone Anchored Hearing Aids (BAHAs) in paediatric patients with conductive or mixed hearing loss, their adoption has been limited due to concerns over implant failure and associated complications. This paper conducts a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the prevalence of implant failure in paediatric populations, combined with a case series from our tertiary referral centre.
    Methods: A comprehensive literature search identified 562 articles, from which 34 were included in the review, covering 1599 implants in 1285 patients. Our retrospective case series included consecutive patients from our tertiary referral centre who underwent percutaneous BAHA implantation from 2003-2019.
    Results: Meta-analysis revealed an overall implant failure rate of 11%, predominantly attributed to traumatic extrusion. Our retrospective case series comprised 104 implantations in 76 patients, with a 4.8% failure rate.
    Discussion: Factors contributing to the lower-than-expected failure rates in the case series likely included consistent use of 4 mm fixtures from a single manufacturer and older age at implantation. The study underscores the need for standardised reporting formats in bone conduction implants research, given the systematic review's limitations in study design heterogeneity, especially with the expected rise in the adoption of novel active devices.

    Abstract Listening effort (LE) describes the cognitive resources needed to process an auditory message. Our understanding of this notion remains in its infancy, hindering our ability to appreciate how it impacts individuals with hearing impairment effectively. Despite the myriad of proposed measurement tools, a validated method remains elusive. This is complicated by the seeming lack of association between tools demonstrated via correlational analyses. This review aims to systematically review the literature relating to the correlational analyses between different measures of LE. Five databases were used- PubMed, Cochrane, EMBASE, PsychINFO, and CINAHL. The quality of the evidence was assessed using the GRADE criteria and risk of bias with ROBINS-I/GRADE tools. Each statistically significant analysis was classified using an approved system for medical correlations. The final analyses included 48 papers, equating to 274 correlational analyses, of which 99 reached statistical significance (36.1%). Within these results, the most prevalent classifications were poor or fair. Moreover, when moderate or very strong correlations were observed, they tended to be dependent on experimental conditions. The quality of evidence was graded as very low. These results show that measures of LE are poorly correlated and supports the multi-dimensional concept of LE. The lack of association may be explained by considering where each measure operates along the effort perception pathway. Moreover, the fragility of significant correlations to specific conditions further diminishes the hope of finding an all-encompassing tool. Therefore, it may be prudent to focus on capturing the consequences of LE rather than the notion itself.

    Abstract Purpose of review: Normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) is a common form of open-angle glaucoma throughout the world, and yet there are many unanswered questions regarding both the mechanisms of the optic neuropathy and the treatment of these patients. The present review considers how recent literature advances our understanding of both the mechanisms of glaucomatous damage and the treatment of patients with NTG.
    Recent findings: The main theme in the current literature continues to be that NTG and primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) represent a continuum of open-angle glaucomas, in which a certain level of intraocular pressure (IOP) is the predominant causative risk factor in POAG, while additional IOP-independent factors take increasing importance in NTG. There is considerable overlap between the two conditions, however, and within the population of NTG patients there are subsets in which IOP, blood flow and other factors assume relative importance.
    Summary: In clinical practice, control of IOP remains the mainstay of managing NTG patients, but consideration must also be given to other factors, especially those that may influence perfusion of the optic nerve head. Treatment paradigms will likely change as researchers continue to investigate the mechanisms of glaucomatous optic neuropathy and search for IOP-independent neuroprotective agents.
