3M/house cochlear implant in children.

Data on 265 children with the 3M/House single-channel cochlear implant have been collected and analyzed for presentation to FDA. Significant improvements from preimplant to postimplant in auditory detection, auditory discrimination/identification, and speech production have been demonstrated. Some children also demonstrate the ability to recognize words and sentences without the aid of speechre...

Audio-visual consonant recognition with the 3M/House cochlear implant.

Eight experienced 3M/House cochlear implant users' consonant recognition was evaluated with videotaped vowel-consonant vowel lists presented in auditory implant only (A), visual (V), and auditory-visual (AV) conditions. All subjects' scores were better than chance. Results revealed that the AV scores were significantly better than the V scores, which were better than the A scores. Sequential In...

Intratumoral immunotherapy with the TLR7/8 agonist 3M-052

TLR agonists have demonstrated anti-tumor activity in both animals and humans. Clinically, successful antitumor activity with TLR agonists was most often observed when the molecules were applied locally to dermatological cancers. This mode of administration was also associated with fewer and less severe adverse events (AEs) when compared to systemic administration. The efficacy of TLR agonists ...
