Association between combined occupational exposure to coal dust and noise and high-frequency hearing loss among workers: a cross-sectional study [PDF]
BackgroundOccupational environments contain a wide variety of harmful factors, with noise often coexisting with other physical, chemical factors, leading to combined exposure that may increase the risk of hearing impairment among workers. This study aims

Cochlear Mechanisms in Noise Induced Hearing Loss
One of the most common cause of hearing loss depends on noise overexposure. Noise is a stress factor that has auditory, psychological and physiological effects. Noise causes overproduction of stress hormones, sleep disturbances and impairment of cellular

Noise-induced hearing loss and hearing aids requirement.
Subjective disturbances, due to hearing loss, are auditory disability and handicap which can be evaluated with a questionnaire. The present study refers to a population of industrial workers affected by noise-induced hearing loss. Aim of the study is to identify the minimal level of hearing loss over which the patient felt changes in his quality of ...

TECTB Variants Reveal Tectorial Membrane Vulnerability in Dominant Non-Syndromic Hearing Loss. [PDF]
TECTB is a non‐collagenous protein of the tectorial membrane – an extracellular matrix of the cochlea. This study identifies dominant missense variants in TECTB linked to human hereditary deafness in two unrelated families. Genetically engineered mice homozygous for one of the variants are profoundly deaf, whereas heterozygous mice have normal hearing ...
