Sex differences in noise-induced hearing loss: a cross-sectional study in China

open access: yesBiology of Sex Differences, 2021
Significant sex differences exist in hearing physiology, while few human studies have investigated sex differences in noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL), and the sex bias in previous studies resulted in inadequate female data.

Guidelines for Diagnosing and Quantifying Noise-Induced Hearing Loss

open access: yesTrends in Hearing, 2022
This paper makes recommendations for the diagnosis and quantification of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) in a medico-legal context. A distinction is made between NIHL produced by: steady broadband noise, as occurs in some factories; more impulsive ...

Involvement of NLRP3-inflammasome pathway in noise-induced hearing loss

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2022
The inflammasome is a multiprotein oligomer in the cell cytoplasm and is part of the innate immune system. It plays a crucial role in the pathological process of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL).
