Could a cholesterol drug help restore sudden hearing loss?
Disease control Stopped earlyThis trial asks whether adding an oral statin to the usual steroid treatment can improve recovery from sudden sensorineural hearing loss, a condition where hearing drops rapidly in one ear. Adults diagnosed within 30 days of symptom onset will receive either a statin or a placebo…

Baby brain scan could revolutionize hearing tests
Diagnosis Stopped earlyThis study tested a device called EarGenie that uses light to measure brain activity in babies while they listen to sounds. The goal was to see if it could accurately detect whether infants can hear and tell sounds apart. The trial included 10 normal-hearing babies aged 1-24 mont…

New hearing aid tech aims to unmuffle whispered conversations
Symptom relief Stopped earlyThis study tests a new way for hearing aids to process soft sounds, aiming to make quiet speech clearer. Sixteen adults with hearing loss will try two different hearing aid settings in a lab and rate which one sounds more natural and understandable. The goal is to improve hearing…

Can new hearing aid tech cut through noise?
Symptom relief Stopped earlyThis study looked at whether a special noise reduction feature in Phonak hearing aids helps adults with moderate hearing loss understand speech better in noisy settings. 21 participants tested the Phonak device and a competitor's device in a lab and a real cafe. They completed sp…

One surgery instead of two for kids' hearing implants?
Symptom relief Stopped earlyThis study looked at whether a single surgery to place a bone-anchored hearing implant is as safe as the usual two-step procedure in children aged 4 to 9. The main goal was to see how many implants were lost. The study was stopped early, so results are limited.
