A new method for restoration of sensorineural hearing loss

However, a number of recent studies have found that hearing loss does not necessarily result from hair cell death,27-29 ...

A conductive hearing loss results when a problem originates with the outer ear or middle ear and prevents or impedes sound from being conducted to the inner ear. A conductive hearing loss can ste ...
