snhl diabetes mellitus

UNLABELLED: Chronic sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is a common disease that leads to disability of the population. Despite the many reports devoted to SNHL, the question of the pathogenesis of the disease is still open. Many researchers consider the development of SNHL as a manifestation of microangiopathy. The mechanism of development of microangiopathy in SNHL is multifactorial, but most researchers agree that endothelial dysfunction (ED) triggers a complex of pathological changes in the vessels of the inner ear...

The metabolic syndrome (MS) is a cluster of conditions that occur. togehther, increase risk of heart disease, storke, type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension as a possible outcome. The previous research has shown a link between hearing loss and being overweight, diabetic, or suffering from heart disease. However, research on the possible link between hearing loss and metabolic syndrome is limited. Hearing loss due to metabolic syndrome was evaluated in the present investigation. Two hundred individuals with metabolic syndrome were included...

PURPOSE: Age-related sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), is a progressive, usually bilateral hearing loss that occurs in elderly. It is correctable using rehabilitative hearing devices, which can vastly improve the older person's quality of life. This study aimed to find out the prevalence and related factors of age-related sensorineural hearing loss among elderly patients in Tanzania. METHODS: A total of 380 elderly patients who received Otorhinolaryngology (ORL) services at Muhimbili tertiary hospital were enrolled...

Objective Hearing loss as a comorbidity of type 2 diabetes mellitus (type 2 DM) is frequently overlooked by patients and healthcare professionals because of a lack of awareness. This cross-sectional study aims to investigate the impact of DM on sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) in the population of Eastern India. The primary objectives are to assess the prevalence and severity of SNHL among individuals with DM, explore demographic and clinical factors associated with hearing impairment, and contribute valuable insights to the understanding of this relationship in a specific regional context...

OBJECTIVE: To test the hypothesis that use of cigarettes or other products with either cigarette-like smoke profile or high nicotine content by young populations increases the odds of developing sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTING: TriNetX US Collaborative Network (2003-2022). PATIENTS: Approximately 3.6 million patients at least 18 years old. INTERVENTION: None...

Background Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is a common complication of diabetes, but the underlying mechanisms and risk factors are not fully understood. This study investigated the relationship between several potential risk factors and SNHL in 118 individuals previously diagnosed with diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM2). Methods We did a cross-sectional analysis of data collected from 118 patients with diabetes mellitus at multiple tertiary hospitals in the Jordanian Royal Medical Services (JRMS). The mean age was 60...

OBJECTIVES.: This study investigated the 8-year incidence and progression of hearing loss (HL) and its types and examined the risk factors for changes in HL. METHODS.: This longitudinal cohort study analyzed data from the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES), an ongoing, prospective, community-based cohort study that has been conducted since 2001. Altogether, 1,890 residents of urban areas in Korea aged 45-75 years at time 1 (baseline) were included in the study...

Background and Objectives : Discussion is open about the relationship between diabetes (DM) and hearing loss (HL). There is a lot of evidence in the literature suggesting a causal link between these conditions, beyond being considered simple comorbidities. The difficulty in identifying populations free from confounding factors makes it difficult to reach definitive conclusions on the pathophysiological mechanisms at play. Nonetheless, there is numerous evidence that demonstrates how the population affected by DM is more affected by sensorineural HL (SNHL) and exhibit a higher prevalence of idiopathic sudden sensorineural HL (ISSNHL)...

Introduction and objectives Acquired sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) has become a critical societal issue in recent years. SNHL is considered a risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Metformin is commonly used to treat T2DM. However, its effects on SNHL have not been reported yet. Hence, this study aimed to evaluate the association between the use of metformin and SNHL incidence. Patients and methods In this retrospective matched-cohort study, the medical records of 1219 patients with T2DM aged >18 years from our hospital's inpatient database from January 1, 2012, to December 31, 2019, were examined, and matched cohorts were generated (76 patients receiving metformin and 76 not receiving metformin)...

OBJECTIVES: Here, we aimed to (a) determine whether a clinically significant sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) change could be detected in post-coronavirus disease (COVID-19) hearing levels on comparing them with pre-infection hearing levels after controlling for the effect of age and (b) to identify risk factors, such as hypertension, diabetes, and smoking, which increase the likelihood of hearing loss in COVID-19 patients. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed hearing thresholds in unvaccinated patient's pre- and post-COVID-19 infection...

BACKGROUND/ OBJECTIVES: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that affects many body systems, including the nervous and auditory systems. It is noted that there is a scarcity of research on the effect of diabetes on cognitive functions in particular and auditory functions in general in children with type 1 diabetes. Therefore, this study was designed to assess cognitive and auditory functions in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus and to correlate the reflection of diabetes control on cognitive functions...

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: Childhood hearing loss impacts linguistic, academic, social, and psychologic development, and may have lasting implications for future workforce performance. Current evidence for obesity as a pediatric sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) risk factor is intriguing but equivocal. We hypothesized that obesity is associated with a higher risk of SNHL. We additionally examined whether underweight is associated with a higher risk of SNHL. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective database review...

Wolfram syndrome was initially reported as an autosomal recessive (AR), progressive neurodegenerative disorder that leads to diabetes insipidus, childhood onset diabetes mellitus (DM), optic atrophy, and deafness (D) also known as DIDMOAD. However, heterozygous dominant pathogenic variants in Wolfram syndrome type 1 (WFS1) may lead to distinct, allelic conditions, described as isolated sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), syndromic SNHL, congenital cataracts, or early onset DM. We report a family with a novel dominant, likely pathogenic variant in WFS1 (NM_006005...

Hearing impairment was observed in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Our purpose was to investigate the relationship between sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) and associated comorbidities in the CKD population. We conducted a retrospective, population-based study to examine the risk of developing SNHL in patients with CKD. Population-based data from 2000-2010 from the Longitudinal Health Insurance Database of the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database was used in this study. The population sample comprised 185,430 patients who were diagnosed with CKD, and 556,290 without CKD to determine SNHL risk factors...

Hyperglycemia has been reported to cause hearing loss. We evaluated hyperglycemic subjects with controls undergoing pure tone audiometry. Hundred subjects were divided into case (n = 50, diabetes mellitus patients) and control (n = 50, non DM subjects). Pure tone audiometry was performed for subjects. Degree of hearing loss was categorized as mild, moderate, moderately severe, severe and profound hearing loss. Out of 50 cases, 26% had normal hearing, 20% had moderately and 28% had moderately severe hearing loss...

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic culprit known to perpetuate several disease processes. The relationship between hearing loss (HL) and type 2 DM (T2DM) remains unclear despite the vast volume of research devoted to this topic. We conducted this study with the aim to evaluate HL among T2DM patients and to assess the relationship between severity of HL, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels and duration of T2DM. DESIGN: a time bound descriptive crosssectional study. SETTING: tertiary care hospital of South India...

BACKGROUND: Turner syndrome (TS) is characterized by dysmorphism and body disproportion. TS women are also susceptible to a range of chronic disorders including arterial hypertension (AHT), osteoporosis, sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) and thyroid disease. The association between dysmorphism/body disproportion and chronic disease has never been studied in TS women. The effect of growth hormone treatment on body disproportion is also unclear. Objectives: to analyze dysmorphic features and body disproportion in TS women in relation to the presence of chronic disease and to document the effect of growth hormone therapy on body disproportion...

BACKGROUND: Wolfram syndrome (WFS) is a rare autosomal recessive disease with clinical manifestations of diabetes mellitus (DM), diabetes insipidus (DI), optic nerve atrophy (OA) and sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). Although SNHL is a key symptom of WFS, there is limited information on its natural history using standardized measures. Such information is important for clinical care and determining its use as an outcome measure in clinical trials. METHODS: Standardized audiologic measures, including pure-tone testing, tympanometry, speech perception, and the unaided Speech Intelligibility Index (SII) were assessed in patients with confirmed WFS annually...

PURPOSE: Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is the major cause of hearing impairment, especially conductive hearing loss. Few patients also had sensorineural component, the sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) in CSOM is controversial, especially for safe mucosal type. This study aims to assess the relationship between the frequency of SNHL development in patients with safe mucosal CSOM and its relation to patient's age, sex, duration of disease, size of perforation and different audiological findings...
