Auditory perception and the ecology of human–nature interactions: Effects of hearing loss on listening to birdsong

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 12, Page 3282-3296, December 2025.
Abstract The human sensory systems are a primary means through which people experience and connect with nature. Understanding and improving people's personalised ecologies—their embodied, sensory interactions with other organisms—is key to addressing the causes and consequences of the extinction of experience and ecological grief prevalent in ...

Treating Hearing Loss: From Cochlear Implantation to Gene Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 41, November 6, 2025.
Cochlear implantation is the primary treatment for deafness, restoring functional hearing in over a million people. Recently, gene therapy has enabled biological hearing restoration in a small number of patients with OTOF‐related mutations. This perspective evaluates both approaches, concluding that cochlear implants will remain the standard for most ...

Voxelwise analysis of the central hearing pathway in senior dogs reveals changes associated with fractional lifespan

open access: yesScientific Reports
Presbycusis, or age-related hearing loss, affects both elderly humans and dogs, significantly impairing their social interactions and cognition. In humans, presbycusis involves changes in peripheral and central auditory systems, with central changes ...

Gene expression changes for antioxidants pathways in the mouse cochlea: relations to age-related hearing deficits.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Age-related hearing loss - presbycusis - is the number one neurodegenerative disorder and top communication deficit of our aged population. Like many aging disorders of the nervous system, damage from free radicals linked to production of reactive oxygen

Toward a test battery for differential categorization of age-related hearing loss

open access: yesJournal of Indian Speech Language & Hearing Association, 2014
Age-related hearing loss (ARHL, or presbycusis) results from neural and/or cochlear degeneration. A taxonomy distinguishing presbycusis subtypes according to site of lesion was originally proposed by linking audiometric results to histopathological ...

Long‐Term Cochlear Implant Sensitivity in Patients With Far Advanced Otosclerosis

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, Volume 135, Issue 10, Page 3885-3892, October 2025.
This study aimed to evaluate mid‐ and long‐term cochlear implant fitting in otosclerosis patients compared to a control group. It suggested significant tissue remodeling at the cochlear apex in otosclerosis patients, likely increasing resistance to electrical currents delivered by the implant.

Cholinergic Hypofunction in Presbycusis-Related Tinnitus With Cognitive Function Impairment: Emerging Hypotheses

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2018
Presbycusis (age-related hearing loss) is a potential risk factor for tinnitus and cognitive deterioration, which result in poor life quality. Presbycusis-related tinnitus with cognitive impairment is a common phenotype in the elderly population.
