Our goal was to identify genetic risk factors for severe otitis media (OM) in Aboriginal Australians.

We examined the association between otitis media and educational attainment in a retrospective population cohort of Western Australian children who participated in the Grade 3 National Assessment Program—Literacy and Numeracy in 2012.

To compare the asynchronous assessment of video otoscopic still images to recordings by an audiologist and ear, nose and throat surgeon (ENT) for diagnostic reliability and agreement in identifying middle-ear disease.

The aim of this study was to generate a conceptual framework describing which aspects of children and adolescents' lives are affected by chronic tinnitus.

Otitis media (OM) is a common disease in early childhood characterised by inflammation of the middle ear.

This study was the first to concurrently identify middle ear pathogens in both bacterial biofilm and intracellularly in the middle ear mucosa of children and to identify extensive DNA stranding in the MEF from children with AOM

We identified several novel candidate genes which warrant further analysis in cohorts matched more precisely for clinical phenotypes.

Both bacteria and viruses play a role in the development of acute otitis media, however, the importance of specific viruses is unclear.

We investigated predictors of nasopharyngeal carriage in Australian Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal children.

Otitis media (OM) is among the most common illnesses of early childhood, characterised by the presence of inflammation in the middle ear cavity...
