“…Yildirim et al [52] showed that the impact of 3 T MRI noise on DPOAEs was only temporary and located in the higher spectrum of the tested frequencies (2, 6 and 8 kHz). Therefore, we would expect this frequency range to be affected prior to the lower ones [53], which is not our case.…”

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is one of the most commonly used tools in neuroscience. However, it implies exposure to high noise levels. Exposure to noise can lead to temporary or permanent hearing loss, especially when the exposure is long and/or repeated. Little is known about the hearing risks for people undergoing several MRI examinations, especially in the context of longitudinal studies. The goal of this study was to assess the potential impact of repeated exposure to MRI noise on hearing in research participants undergoing dozens of MRI scans. As part of the Courtois NeuroMod project, six participants were scanned up to twice a week with the use of hearing protection. Their hearing was tested periodically, over a period of 1.5 years. First, baseline pure-tone thresholds and distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) amplitudes were acquired before the beginning of this study. Hearing tests were then scheduled immediately before/immediately after a scan and with a delay of two to seven days after a scan. Pure-tone thresholds and DPOAE amplitudes showed no scanner noise impact right after the scan session when compared to the values acquired right before the scan session. Pure-tone thresholds and DPOAE amplitudes acquired in the delayed condition and compared to the baseline showed similar results. These results suggest an absence of impact from MRI noise exposure. Overall, our results show that intensive longitudinal MRI studies likely do not cause hearing damage to participants when they properly utilize adequate hearing protection.

“…Despite the above values were obtained in ID status, the ID status was closer to the natural status, which was subclinical status after all. Different from previous “the standard of HHL Diagnosis” literatures after high noise exposure [ 16 , 17 , 27 , 28 ], they presented HHL before showing an elevated threshold at high frequencies by using thresholds in noise or combined diagnostic indicators in adults. ABR and ECochG were also used to reflect auditory neural maturation of newborns in this study, which showed that absolute latency wave V, IPL III-V, and SP/AP ratio may be useful in the diagnosis of HHL.…”

“…Noteworthily, only two references included in Pubmed involve the "gold standard" of HHL, but both standards are exposed to specific white noise, showing a statistically difference compared with the unexposed in electrocochleography (ECochG) related indicators [ 16 , 17 ]. The standard of HHL in calm state is not involved, moreover the nutritional status of the body is not involved in the risk factors of HHL.…”

Objective The diagnosis of hidden hearing loss (HHL) in calm state has not yet been determined, while the nutritional status is not involved in its pathogenic risk factors. In utero iron deficiency (ID) may delay auditory neural maturation in infants. We evaluated the association between ID and HHL as well as the modification effect of socioeconomic status (SES) on this association in newborns. Study design We included 859 mother-newborns from the baseline of this observational northeast cohort. Data on exposure assessment included iron status [maternal hemoglobin (Hb) and neonatal heel prick serum ferritin (SF)] and SES (occupation, education and income). Auditory neural maturation was reflected by auditory brainstem response (ABR) testing and electrocochleography (ECochG). Results Iron status and SES were independently and jointly associated with the prediction of neonatal HHL by logistic and linear regression model. The mediation effects were performed by Process. ID increased absolute latency wave V, interpeak latency (IPL) III-V, and summting potentials (SP) /action potentials (AP), which were combined as HHL. Low SES showed the highest risk of HHL and the highest levels of related parameters in ID newborns. Moreover, after Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) were positive, preschool children who experience ID in neonatal period were more likely to suffer from otitis media with effusion (OME). High SES also showed similar risk effects. Conclusion Both low and high SES may strengthen the risk of ID on neonatal HHL in Northeast China.

“…Embora isso tenha ocorrido, os valores obtidos nos nossos achados não tiveram diferenças significantes entre os grupos (Tabela 1). No estudo de Yuan et al (2023), em que foram avaliados indivíduos com alto risco de exposição (trabalhadores de um aeroporto) e comparados com indivíduos com baixo risco (trabalhadores de um hospital), verificou-se na AAF diferenças significantes para as frequências de 12,5 kHz, 16 kHz e 18 kHz (Yuan et al, 2023).…”

“…Nos últimos anos, estudos têm buscado investigar os efeitos causados pelo ruído no sistema auditivo, mesmo na presença de limiares auditivos dentro da normalidade (Liberman et al, 2016;Valderrama et al, 2018;Couth et al, 2020;Grant et al, 2020;Bramhall, 2021;Nam et al, 2021;Grinn e Le Prell, 2022;Pinsonnault-Skvarenina et al, 2022;Yuan et al, 2023) Após as análises das avaliações iniciais, você poderá ser convidado para continuar no estudo.
