Risk Factors for Sensorineural Hearing Loss in Neonatal Hyperbilirubinemia
Introduction: Hyperbilirubinemia is a common neonatal problem with toxic effects on the nervous system that can cause hearing impairment. This study was conducted to assess the risk factors for sensorineural hearing loss and other coexisting problems in icteric infants. Materials and Methods: In a case-control study, 200 term infants with bilirubin levels higher than 20 mg/dl admitted to the...
متن کاملEvidence of vestibular and balance dysfunction in children with profound sensorineural hearing loss using cochlear implants.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Similarities between the peripheral auditory and vestibular systems suggest that children with sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) may demonstrate vestibular and balance impairments. This hypothesis was studied in 40 children with severe to profound SNHL and unilateral cochlear implants. STUDY DESIGN Prospective cross-sectional study with repeated measures. METHODS Vesti...
متن کاملPseudoexfoliation Syndrome and Sensorineural Hearing Loss
Introduction: Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXS) occurs due to the deposition of extracellular fibrillar materials on the anterior chamber of the eye. This syndrome has been considered to be part of a systemic disease with the potential involvement of the inner ear called sensoroneural hearing loss (SNHL). In this study, we aimed on evaluating SNHL within PXS patients in Iran to compare them wi...
متن کاملCochlear compression in listeners with moderate sensorineural hearing loss.
Psychophysical estimates of basilar membrane (BM) responses suggest that normal-hearing (NH) listeners exhibit constant compression for tones at the characteristic frequency (CF) across the CF range from 250 to 8000 Hz. The frequency region over which compression occurs is broadest for low CFs. This study investigates the extent that these results differ for three hearing-impaired (HI) listener...
متن کاملCochlear synaptopathy in acquired sensorineural hearing loss: Manifestations and mechanisms
Common causes of hearing loss in humans - exposure to loud noise or ototoxic drugs and aging - often damage sensory hair cells, reflected as elevated thresholds on the clinical audiogram. Recent studies in animal models suggest, however, that well before this overt hearing loss can be seen, a more insidious, but likely more common, process is taking place that permanently interrupts synaptic co...
