Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is the most prevalent sensory impairment in the elderly. However, the pathogenesis of ARHL remains unclear. This study was aimed to explore the potential inflammation-related genes of ARHL and suggest novel therapeutic targets for this condition.

Background: Age-related hearing loss and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) independently increase dementia risk. The Ageing and Cognitive Health Evaluation in Elders randomised controlled trial (RCT) found hearing aids reduce cognitive decline in high-risk older adults with poor hearing.
Methods: This pilot RCT in London memory clinics randomised people with MCI (aged ≥55, untreated hearing loss defined as Pure Tone Average 0.

Background: This investigation quantifies the mean and median hearing thresholds and assesses the prevalence of age-related hearing loss within the senior population of Taipei.
Methods: In a substantive geriatric assessment supported by government initiative, 1696 individuals from a community hospital partook in this cross-sectional study (2016-2018). Detailed audiometric evaluations logged pure-tone thresholds across critical frequencies (0.

Background: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a prevalent cause of irreversible vision loss among the elderly. The prevalence and detailed characteristics of Charles Bonnet syndrome (CBS) remain largely unexplored in patients with geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to AMD.
Objectives: To investigate the prevalence and characteristics of CBS in patients with GA secondary to AMD.

Utilizing single-cell transcriptome sequencing (scRNA-seq) technology, this study explores the viability of employing mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) as a therapeutic approach for age-related hearing loss (ARHL). The research demonstrates MSCs' ability to differentiate into inner ear cell subpopulations, particularly hair cells, delivering Apelin via extracellular vesicles (EVs) to promote M2 macrophage polarization. In vitro experiments show reduced inflammation and preservation of hair cell health.
