AI Article Synopsis

  • The review highlights the impact of traumatic noise exposure and deafening on auditory system function, emphasizing that lower levels of noise and temporary hearing loss also affect hearing.
  • It focuses on how abnormal sound experiences during early development influence both ascending (how sound is processed) and descending (how brain influences hearing) auditory pathways.
  • Additionally, the review discusses the potential consequences on hearing behavior as a result of these auditory changes.

Article Abstract

The effects of traumatic noise-exposure and deafening on auditory system function have received a great deal of attention. However, lower levels of noise as well as temporary conductive hearing loss also have consequences on auditory physiology and hearing. Here we review how abnormal acoustic experience at early ages affects the ascending and descending auditory pathways, as well as hearing behavior.

Importance: Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) has proven to be a challenging and enduring complication of prematurity. However, its association with neurodevelopment across the spectrum of IVH severity, independent of prematurity, and in the context of contemporary care remains uncertain.

Objective: To evaluate national trends in IVH diagnosis and the association with survival and neurodevelopmental outcomes at 2 years of age.

Sound Source Localization Testing in Single-sided Deafness Following Bone Conduction Intervention.

J Vis Exp

December 2024

Department of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery, Beijing Children's Hospital, Capital Medical University, National Center for Children's Health;

Single-sided deafness (SSD), where there is severe to profound hearing loss in one ear and normal hearing in the other, is a prevalent auditory condition that significantly impacts the quality of life for those affected. The ability to accurately localize sound sources is crucial for various everyday activities, including speech communication and environmental awareness. In recent years, bone conduction intervention has emerged as a promising solution for patients with SSD, offering a non-invasive alternative to traditional air conduction hearing aids.

Resilience promotes self-esteem in children and adolescents with hearing impairment: the mediating role of positive coping strategy.

Front Psychol

December 2024

Department of Maternal and Child Health, School of Public Health, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, Hubei, China.

Background: The level of self-esteem in adolescents appears to be contingent upon their satisfaction across various domains of life, exerting a notable influence on their mental wellbeing. The purposes of this study were to further validate the influence of resilience and positive coping strategy on their self-esteem and to explore the mediating effect of positive coping strategy in the relationship between resilience and self-esteem.

Methods: A total of 657 children and adolescents with a hearing impairment from 14 deaf/special schools in Hubei province completed measures of self-esteem, resilience, and positive coping.

Multidimensional relationships between sensory perception and cognitive aging.

Front Aging Neurosci

December 2024

Department of Psychology, Game Design, and Physical Therapy, Movement and Rehabilitation Services, Northeastern University, Boston, MA, United States.

A growing literature suggests that declines in sensory/perceptual systems predate cognitive declines in aging, and furthermore, they are highly predictive for developing Alzheimer's disease and Alzheimer's related dementias (ADRD). While vision, hearing, olfaction, and vestibular function have each been shown to be related to ADRD, their causal relations to cognitive declines, how they interact with each other remains to be clarified. Currently, there is substantial debate whether sensory/perceptual systems that fail early in disease progression are causal in their contributions to cognitive load and/or social isolation or are simply coincident declines due to aging.

Background: Sensory impairments, notably hearing loss (68% in those aged 70+) and vision loss (24%-50%), are prevalent in older individuals. We investigated the correlation between visual and hearing impairments in older adults, considering sociodemographic factors, mental health, and social support.

Methods: The study is part of The Serbian 2019 National Health Survey, conducted in 2019.
