Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is associated with cognitive decline as well as structural
and functional brain changes. However, the mechanisms underlying neurocognitive deficits …

During hearing, acoustic signals travel up the ascending auditory pathway from the cochlea
to auditory cortex; efferent connections provide descending feedback. In human listeners …

Importance Evidence has linked age-related hearing impairment (ARHI) with cognitive
decline; however, very few studies (none in the United Kingdom) explore this link in large …

Despite contributing substantially to disability in the United States, age-related hearing loss
is an underappreciated public health concern. Loss of hearing sensitivity has been …

Accessibility is a crucial element reflecting the potential availability of parks. By conducting a
cross-sectional study of 700 older adults sampled from 30 communities in Wuhan, China, we …

With increasing age, the risk of developing chronic health conditions also increases, and
many older people suffer from multiple co-existing health conditions, ie, multimorbidity. One …

Objective: We aimed to determine whether hearing impairment (HI) in older adults is
associated with the development of frailty and falls. Method: Longitudinal analysis of …

Objective: Hearing impairment is highly prevalent, but little is known about hearing health
care among older minority adults. Method: We analyzed nationally representative, cross …

Importance Hearing impairment (HI) is highly prevalent in older adults and has been
associated with adverse health outcomes. However, the overall economic impact of HI is not …

Inner ear hair cells (HCs) and spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) are the core components of
the auditory system. However, they are vulnerable to genetic defects, noise exposure …
