Hypoglossal nerve stimulation
An implanted stimulator for obstructive sleep apnoea.
Key point: In France, hypoglossal nerve stimulation is indicated for non-obese moderate-to-severe OSAHS patients with CPAP or MAD failure or contraindications after mandatory DISE.
Tinnitus
Tinnitus mechanisms and treatments, including neuromodulation.
Cochlear implants
Cochlear implantation, including in older adults and single-sided deafness.
Key point: Cochlear implant indications now include profound unilateral or bilateral sensorineural hearing loss, unilateral deafness, or residual hearing, determined individually for each ear.

How these numbers are counted
PubMed query, searched in titles and abstracts by publication date:
("hearing loss"[tiab] OR "hearing aid*"[tiab]) AND (dementia[tiab] OR cognit*[tiab])Trials: ClinicalTrials.gov studies first submitted in each 12-month window that match the same terms. A query can miss synonyms or catch unrelated papers, so treat counts as approximate.
