“…If primary auditory and somatosensory cortices are part of a functional network (van de Ven et al 2009), then perhaps anatomical changes in one region could impact another region in the network (Oh et al 2011). In addition, extratemporal and temporal lobe findings may reflect comorbid factors such as vascular disease that have widespread aging effects on the peripheral auditory system (Gates et al 1993;Thomopoulos et al 1997;Torre et al 2005;Liew et al 2007;Helzner et al 2011;although see Parving et al 1993;Karamitsos et al 1996) and the brain (Eckert 2011). Influences of vessel disease on hearing in females (Gates et al 1993;Helzner et al 2011) could also explain the association between gray matter in the left Te1.2 region and low frequency hearing loss.…”

Age-related hearing loss, or presbyacusis, is a major public health problem that causes communication difficulties and is associated with diminished quality of life. Limited satisfaction with hearing aids, particularly in noisy listening conditions, suggests that central nervous system declines occur with presbyacusis and may limit the efficacy of interventions focused solely on improving audibility. This study of 49 older adults (M069.58, SD08.22 years; 29 female) was designed to examine the extent to which low and/or high frequency hearing loss was related to auditory cortex morphology. Low and high frequency hearing constructs were obtained from a factor analysis of audiograms from these older adults and 1,704 audiograms from an independent sample of older adults. Significant region of interest and voxel-wise gray matter volume associations were observed for the high frequency hearing construct. These effects occurred most robustly in a primary auditory cortex region (Te1.0) where there was also elevated cerebrospinal fluid with high frequency hearing loss, suggesting that auditory cortex atrophies with high frequency hearing loss. These results indicate that Te1.0 is particularly affected by high frequency hearing loss and may be a target for evaluating the efficacy of interventions for hearing loss.

“…The women with histories of stroke and overall CVD also were twice as likely to have high-frequency hearing losses as women without CVD. Moreover, there are a substantive number of studies that have not found any relationship between hearing loss and CVD or with CVD risk factors (Bunch, 1931; Karamitsos et al, 1996; Parving, Hein, Suadicani, Ostri, & Gyntelberg, 1993). …”

Purpose-The goal of this study was to determine the impact of age, gender and race on the prevalence and severity of hearing loss in elder adults, aged 72-96 years, after accounting for income, education, smoking, and clinical and subclinical cardiovascular disease.Methods-Air-conduction thresholds for standard and extended high-frequency puretones were obtained from a cohort of 548 (out of 717) elderly adults (ages 72-96 years) who were recruited during the Year 11 clinical visit (1999)(2000) of the Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS) at the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania site. Participant smoking, income, education, and cardiovascular disease histories were obtained from the CHS database and were included as factors.Results-Hearing loss was more common and more severe for the participants in their 80s than those in their 70s, the men more than the women, and the White participants more than the Black participants. The inclusion of education, income, smoking and cardiovascular disease (clinical and subclinical) histories as factors did not substantively impact the overall results.Conclusion-Although the data reported in this paper were cross-sectional and a cohort phenomenon might have been operational, they suggested that hearing loss is more substantive in the eighth than the seventh decade of life, and that race and gender influence this decline in audition. Given the high prevalence in the aging population and the differences across groups there is a clear need to understand the nature and causes of hearing loss across various groups in order to improve prevention and develop appropriate interventions.Hearing loss is very common in the general population. Approximately 16% of adults in the United States report some difficulty with hearing, and after arthritis and hypertension, hearing impairment is the third most commonly reported chronic condition in persons over 65 (National Center for Health Statistics, 1982; Pleis & Coles, 2003). By age 70 years, approximately 30% of the population perceives themselves as being hearing impaired, and by 80 years, 50% report being hearing impaired (Desai, Pratt, Lentzner, & Robinson, 2001). There also is indication that the prevalence of hearing impairment in persons 45-69 years of age is increasing, especially among men (Wallhagen, Strawbridge, Cohen, & Kaplan, 1997). Men have consistently reported more hearing problems than women regardless of race. Furthermore, White adults have reported hearing impairment more than Black adults (Desai et al., 2001; Pleis & Lethbridge-Çejku, 2006 NIH-PA Author ManuscriptNIH-PA Author Manuscript NIH-PA Author ManuscriptThe prevalence of self-reported hearing impairment not only varies by race but also by ethnicity. For example, the 1999 National Health Interview Survey (Pleis & Coles, 2003) found that adults from Asian and African decent were less likely to experience hearing problems (7.8% and 7.4% respectively) than Whites or Native Americans (17.2 and 20.1, respectively). Whereas 15% of non-Hispanic White adults reported some form...

“…Cardiovascular dysfunction and prolongation of BAEPs were usually accompanied by a reduction of cerebral blood flow, leading subjects to loss of consciousness and even death of the patient. [23] Sensory derangement, particularly of pain threshold in experimental animals and impairments in sensory conduction in human beings has also been reported in hypertension.…”

Background & Objectives: The central nervous system (CNS) is frequently affected by primary hypertension leading to features of motor, sensory and cognitive deficits. Brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEPs) may provide an early evidence of sensory dysfunction. Correlation of BAEPs with severity of blood pressure has not been studied much. In the present study, BAEPs were recorded in primary hypertensive patients and its correlation with mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) was carried out.
