Article Abstract
The Polish Universal Neonatal Hearing Screening Program (PUNHSP) has been carried out in Poland for 20 years. Its main goal is to screen newborns for hearing. This examination is performed on the 2-3 days of a child's life, and in addition, information is collected on the risk factors for the development of hearing loss. In total, 486 centers participate in PPPBSuN at three reference levels. By the end of 2021, 7 million children were registered in the PPPBSuN Central Database. The most common type of hearing loss in children was bilateral sensorineural hearing loss, diagnosed in 2021 in 160 children. The report below presents the most important results and conclusions from the functioning of PPPBSuN in 2021.

The human auditory system must distinguish relevant sounds from noise. Severe hearing loss can be treated with cochlear implants (CIs), but how the brain adapts to electrical hearing remains unclear. This study examined adaptation to unilateral CI use in the first and seventh months after CI activation using speech comprehension measures and electroencephalography recordings, both during passive listening and an active spatial listening task.

Background: Hearing loss (HL) is one of the most common congenital anomalies and is a complex etiologically diverse condition. Molecular genetic characterization of HL remains challenging owing to the high genetic heterogeneity. This study aimed to screen for potential disease-causing genetic variations in a cohort of Indian patients with congenital bilateral severe-to-profound sensorineural HL.

Objective: To investigate the characteristics of brain structures in patients with noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) using source-based morphometry (SBM) and to evaluate the correlation between abnormal brain regions and clinical data.
Methods: High-resolution 3D T1 structural images were acquired from 81 patients with NIHL and 74 age- and education level-matched healthy controls (HCs). The clinical data of all subjects were collected, including noise exposure time, monaural hearing threshold weighted values (MTWVs), Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) scores.
