A Review on Recent Advancement on Age-Related Hearing Loss: The Applications of Nanotechnology, Drug Pharmacology, and Biotechnology

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2021
Aging is considered a contributing factor to many diseases such as cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer’s disease, and hearing loss. Age-related hearing loss, also termed presbycusis, is one of the most common sensory impairments worldwide, affecting one in

Perceived disability from hearing and voice changes in the elderly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Aim: Dysphonia and hearing loss are underestimated conditions in the elderly, despite their significant prevalence (18% and 50%, respectively) and their sociopsychological implications.

Tone-in-noise detection deficits in elderly patients with clinically normal hearing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
One of the most common complaints among the elderly is the inability to understand speech in noisy environments. In many cases, these deficits are due to age-related hearing loss; however, some of the elderly that have difficulty hearing in noise have ...

Music Training and Education Slow the Deterioration of Music Perception Produced by Presbycusis in the Elderly

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2017
The perception of music depends on the normal function of the peripheral and central auditory system. Aged subjects without hearing loss have altered music perception, including pitch and temporal features.

Age-related changes of GAD1 mRNA expression in the central inferior colliculus

open access: yesTranslational Medicine of Aging, 2023
Encoding sounds with a high degree of temporal precision is an essential task for the inferior colliculus (IC) to perform and maintain the accurate processing of sounds and speech.

Impact of aging on the auditory system and related cognitive functions: A narrative review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Age-related hearing loss (ARHL), presbycusis, is a chronic health condition that affects approximately one-third of the world’s population. The peripheral and central hearing alterations associated with age-related hearing loss have a profound impact on ...

10‐year follow‐up in the assessment on P300 in older adults with mild cognitive impairment: a case series [PDF]

open access: yesAlzheimers Dement
Abstract Background In Brazil, the older adult population has already surpassed 32 million people (IBGE, 2023). Cognitive decline stands as one of the most important chronic‐degenerative disabling changes, which can generate Major or Mild Neurocognitive Disorders (Bárrios 2020; American Psychiatric Association, 2023).

Functional changes in the auditory cortex and associated regions caused by different acoustic stimuli in patients with presbycusis and tinnitus

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Presbycusis and tinnitus are the two most common hearing related pathologies. Although both of these conditions presumably originate in the inner ear, there are several reports concerning their central components.

Cochlear injury and adaptive plasticity of the auditory cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Growing evidence suggests that cochlear stressors as noise exposure and aging can induce homeostatic/maladaptive changes in the central auditory system from the brainstem to the cortex.

Insula and Amygdala Atrophy Are Associated With Functional Impairment in Subjects With Presbycusis

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2020
Hearing loss is an important risk factor for dementia. However, the mechanisms that relate these disorders are still unknown. As a proxy of this relationship, we studied the structural brain changes associated with functional impairment in activities of ...
