Deafness Research UK has joined forces with researchers at Southampton University to give schoolchildren and their families a rare opportunity to shape the future diagnosis and treatment of glue ear. 

Researchers find no statistically significant effect of antibiotic treatment at preventing middle ear effusion.

Children who have persistent glue ear are more likely to be harmed than helped by antihistamines and decongestants, a new review of studies has found.

Scientists believe they have found a gene that may be responsible for glue ear in children.
