Aim: To evaluate the hearing changes following stapedotomy surgery, and to investigate the potential effects of the age and sex of the patients on air-bone gap closure. Material and Methods: 80 patients diagnosed with otosclerosis and undergone stapedotomy surgery, were involved in this study. The hearing changes were evaluated by comparing the means of air and bone conductive measurements at 250-500-1000-2000 and 4000 Hz before and after surgery. In addition, the air-bone gap closure was determined. Data was analysed statistically using t-student and Anova tests (p=0.05). Results: There was a statistically significant difference in air conductive measurements before and after surgery (p<0.001), whilst the bone conductive values showed no differences. The mean of air-bone closure in the current study was 28.6dB.

Research summary
تهدف الدراسة إلى تقييم التغيرات في القدرة السمعية بعد جراحة الركابة (stapedotomy) ودراسة تأثير العمر والجنس على انغلاق الفجوة الهوائية العظمية. شملت الدراسة 80 مريضًا تم تشخيصهم بتصلب الركابة وأجروا عملية تصنيع الركابة باستخدام بديل لعظم الركابة وأحيانًا طعم من شحمة الأذن. تم مقارنة القيم الوسطية لعتبات مخطط السمع الكهربائي عند التواترات 250-500-1000-2000-4000 بالطريقين العظمي والهوائي قبل وبعد الجراحة. أظهرت النتائج تحسنًا دالًا إحصائيًا في القيم الوسطية للعتبات بالطريق الهوائي بعد الجراحة، بينما لم تتأثر عتبات مخطط السمع بالطريق العظمي. كان وسطي انغلاق الفجوة الهوائية العظمية 28.6 ديسيبل. لم يظهر الجنس تأثيرًا على تحسن القدرة السمعية، بينما أظهر العمر تأثيرًا دالًا إحصائيًا على التحسن.
Critical review
دراسة نقدية: تعتبر هذه الدراسة مهمة في مجال جراحة الأذن والأنف والحنجرة، حيث تقدم تقييمًا شاملاً لتأثير جراحة الركابة على القدرة السمعية. ومع ذلك، يمكن الإشارة إلى بعض النقاط التي قد تحتاج إلى تحسين. أولاً، العينة المستخدمة في الدراسة كانت محدودة بـ 80 مريضًا فقط، مما قد يؤثر على تعميم النتائج. ثانياً، لم يتم تناول تأثير العوامل البيئية أو الوراثية بشكل كافٍ. ثالثاً، كان من الممكن أن تكون الدراسة أكثر شمولاً إذا تم تضمين مجموعة مقارنة من المرضى الذين لم يخضعوا للجراحة. وأخيراً، كان من الممكن أن تكون النتائج أكثر دقة إذا تم استخدام تقنيات تحليل بيانات أكثر تقدمًا.

This study aims to identifythe effect of hearing impairment on the the development of communication of poor-hearing children. Validity and reliability have been examined for the instrument and were approved to be usedin the current study.The instru ment was developed by the researcher and consisted of (32) items. The Sample consisted of (50) families of the hearing impaired children. The most frequent problemswerethe child’s request for repeating the speech and were related to finding difficulties in continuing the conversation. The least common problem was that the child moved away from others. The finding showed that there were no significant statistical differences in the effect of gender of poor-hearing children on the development of communicationand in their parents’ educathional level.
Understanding and executing natural language instructions in a grounded domain is one of the hallmarks of artificial intelligence. In this paper, we focus on instruction understanding in the blocks world domain and investigate the language understand ing abilities of two top-performing systems for the task. We aim to understand if the test performance of these models indicates an understanding of the spatial domain and of the natural language instructions relative to it, or whether they merely over-fit spurious signals in the dataset. We formulate a set of expectations one might have from an instruction following model and concretely characterize the different dimensions of robustness such a model should possess. Despite decent test performance, we find that state-of-the-art models fall short of these expectations and are extremely brittle. We then propose a learning strategy that involves data augmentation and show through extensive experiments that the proposed learning strategy yields models that are competitive on the original test set while satisfying our expectations much better.
Standard architectures used in instruction following often struggle on novel compositions of subgoals (e.g. navigating to landmarks or picking up objects) observed during training. We propose a modular architecture for following natural language inst ructions that describe sequences of diverse subgoals. In our approach, subgoal modules each carry out natural language instructions for a specific subgoal type. A sequence of modules to execute is chosen by learning to segment the instructions and predicting a subgoal type for each segment. When compared to standard, non-modular sequence-to-sequence approaches on ALFRED, a challenging instruction following benchmark, we find that modularization improves generalization to novel subgoal compositions, as well as to environments unseen in training.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the esthetic changes following functional and camouflage treatment in Class II Division 1 malocclusion patients. Methods: cephalograms of 35 patients had Class II Division 1were selected. Those in group 1 (n=15) were treated with functional appliance, and those in group 2 (n= 20) were treated with fixed orthodontic appliance after premolar extractions. 35 cephalometric variables were selected to evaluate the esthetic changes following the orthodontic treatment. Dependent t tests were used to compare the cephalometric variables at the posttreatment stage and the cephalometric variables at the pretreatment stage in each group, and Independent t tests were used to compare the changes in cephalometric variables caused by the orthodontic treatment between the groups.
Chin area is considered as a suitable donor site for autogenous bone grafts for alveolar ridge reconstruction before dental implantation, using large trephine bur(10mm) considers one of several ways which appeared for bone graft harvesting.
