Effect of N-acetyl-cysteine in prevention of noise-induced hearing loss: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

Archives of Medical Science, 2021
Introduction Noise-induced hearing loss is one of the most prevalent causes of hearing impairment and occupational diseases. Although multiple factors lead to noise-induced hearing loss, prevention and protection strategies remain limited. Studies in the

Occupational noise-induced hearing loss [PDF]

Occupational Medicine, 1997
Occupational noise-induced hearing loss is, at least in theory, preventable. One way to assess the problem and whether preventative measures are effective is to assess employees' hearing. In order to minimize cost and time off work this can be carried out effectively in the workplace as long as certain conditions are met.

Programmable NIR Responsive Nanocomposite Enables Noninvasive Intratympanic Delivery of Dexamethasone to Reverse Cisplatin Induced Hearing Loss

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, saponin‐coated silica@gold nanocarriers responsive to NIR radiation is developed to enhance intratympanic drug delivery for cisplatin‐induced hearing loss (CIHL) treatment. The biocompatibility and oto‐protective properties are validated both in vitro and in vivo.

Time course of cell death due to acoustic overstimulation in the mouse medial geniculate body and primary auditory cortex

Noise and Health, 2017
It has previously been shown that acoustic overstimulation induces cell death and extensive cell loss in key structures of the central auditory pathway. A correlation between noise-induced apoptosis and cell loss was hypothesized for the cochlear nucleus

Nondeterministic nature of sensorineural outcomes following noise trauma

Biology Open, 2021
Over 1.1 billion individuals are at risk for noise induced hearing loss yet there is no accepted therapy. A long history of research has demonstrated that excessive noise exposure will kill outer hair cells (OHCs).

Association of GST gene polymorphism and noise-induced hearing loss
Running title: GST gene polymorphism and NIHL

AIMS Public Health, 2019
Background: It has been proposed that Noise-induced hearing loss is a complex disease that is combination of environmental and genetic factors. There are inconsistent results concerning the association between variation in glutathione S-transferase (GST)

Stress Response and Hearing Loss Differentially Contribute to Dynamic Alterations in Hippocampal Neurogenesis and Microglial Reactivity in Mice Exposed to Acute Noise Exposure

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is one of the most prevalent forms of acquired hearing loss, and it is associated with aberrant microglial status and reduced hippocampal neurogenesis; however, the nature of these associations is far from being ...
