Ossicular joint histopathology in cases of age‐related hearing loss

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology
Objectives Age‐related hearing loss (presbycusis) is a prevalent condition traditionally attributed to inner ear dysfunction. Little is known about age‐related changes in the ossicular joints or their contribution to presbycusis.

The role of mitochondrial DNA large deletion for the development of presbycusis in Fischer 344 rats

Neurobiology of Disease, 2007
Age-related hearing loss, or presbycusis, has been associated with large-scale mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) deletion in previous studies. However, the role of this mtDNA damage in presbycusis is still not clear because the deletion in inner ears has not ...

Predicting cochlear structural alterations from auditory function in age‐related hearing loss mice based on optical coherence tomography

Journal of Intelligent Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract With global population aging, age‐related hearing loss has become a major public health concern. Understanding the relationship between auditory functional decline and cochlear structural degeneration is essential for early detection and precise intervention.

The Incidence of Sensorineural Hearing Loss Diagnoses in People with and without Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) and sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) are both prevalent conditions among older adults. Although increasing number of studies have investigated SNHL as a risk factor for PD, it is not well known how diagnosed PD affects the likelihood of SNHL diagnosis.

Risk factors for presbycusis in a socio-economic middle-class sample Estudo de fatores de risco para presbiacusia em indivíduos de classe sócio-econômica média

Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2009
Presbycusis, or the aging ear, involves mainly the inner ear and the cochlear nerve, causing sensorineural hearing loss. Risk factors include systemic diseases and poor habits that cause inner ear damage and lead to presbycusis. Correct identification of

An Experimental Study on the Protective Effect of Memantine in Noise‐Induced Hearing Loss

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study examined the potential protective effects of memantine, an N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, against acoustic trauma (AT) in guinea pigs, using electrophysiological and histopathological analyses. Methods Thirty guinea pigs with normal hearing were divided into six groups (n = 5 per group): Group 1 (control),

Cognitive Decline, Dementia, Alzheimer’s Disease and Presbycusis: Examination of the Possible Molecular Mechanism

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2018
The incidences of presbycusis and dementia are high among geriatric diseases. Presbycusis is the general term applied to age-related hearing loss and can be caused by many risk factors, such as noise exposure, smoking, medication, hypertension, family ...

Association Characteristics and Potential Mechanisms of Aging, Gut Microbiota, and Hearing Loss

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The study found that aging leads to unchanged gut microbiota alpha diversity but an increase in Bacteroidetes and a decrease in Firmicutes at the phylum level, with specific genera, species, and functional pathways co‐associated with aging and hearing loss. Through constructing a microbe‐metabolite network, it revealed the mechanism by which protective

Hearing loss among the elderly at a geriatric centre in South-west Nigeria

Nigerian Journal of Medicine, 2023
Background: Aging is an unavoidable process that is connected with several health issues, including presbycusis, a degenerative disease of the cochlear hair cells and central auditory pathways with a resultant reduction in hearing acuity.
