Evaluation of Age-Related Hearing Loss
Age-related hearing loss (presbycusis) is characterized by an increased hearing threshold and poor speech understanding in a noisy environment, slowed central processing of acoustic information, and impaired localization of sound sources. Presbycusis seriously affects the older people's quality of life. Particularly, hearing loss in the elderly contributes to social isolation, depression, and l...

Presbycusis is one of the most prevalent neurodegenerative diseases of aging caused by changes in peripheral (cell loss in organ of Corti, spiral ganglion and stria vascularis) and central auditory systems (consequent to peripheral modifications or due to changes in the neurobiologic activity underlying central processing of auditory informations) [1]. Consequences are reduced sensitivity, tuni...

متن کاملOxidative Stresses and Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Age-Related Hearing Loss
Age-related hearing loss (ARHL), the progressive loss of hearing associated with aging, is the most common sensory disorder in the elderly population. The pathology of ARHL includes the hair cells of the organ of Corti, stria vascularis, and afferent spiral ganglion neurons as well as the central auditory pathways. Many studies have suggested that the accumulation of mitochondrial DNA damage, t...
