“…So irrespective of their general educational background, all people need to be educated about how nasal infection can affect the ears. Diabetic patients have higher prevalence of hearing impairment [3] and there is a significant association between hypertension and hearing loss [4]. Our study shows that, 46.7% to 75% (average 64%) people did not know that DM and Hypertension can cause hearing loss.…”

“…While adequate amount of cerumen is necessary in order to avoid ear infections, excess of it may result in impaction which may cause pain, hearing loss or even dizziness [1]. Ear infection [2], diabetes mellitus [3], hypertension [4] and excessive use of mobile phone for listening to music at high volume [5] all can reduce hearing. Not many studies are available regarding the practice of ear care and its relation to proper hearing.…”

The Association between Impaired FastingGlucose and Noise-induced Hearing Loss: Tae-Won Jang, et al. Department of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, Hangang Sacred Heart Hospital, Hallym University College of Medicine, Korea-Objectives: This study was performed to determine whether there is an association between impaired fasting glucose and noise-induced hearing loss. Methods: The study subjects were workers in one automobile manufacturing company. The data were obtained from results of health examinations during 2005 and 2009. The factors analyzed were age, smoking and alcohol history, work duration, environmental noise level, hearing thresholds, blood pressure, serum creatinine, initial hearing threshold and fasting glucose. Results:The hearing thresholds at 4,000 Hz frequencies for both ears were significantly higher in 2009 than those in 2005. The changes in the hearing thresholds of the subjects with an impaired fasting glucose (100-125 mg/dl) and diabetes (≥126 mg/dl) were greater than those of the normal (<100 mg/dl) group. After adjusting for variables such as age, smoking and alcohol history, environmental noise, hypertension and serum creatinine, fasting glucose was found to be a significant variable. Impaired fasting glucose (100-125 mg/dl) was significant (β=1.339, p=0.002) for the right ear, whereas it was not significant (β=0.639, p=0.121) for the left ear. Conclusions: Impaired fasting glucose, as well as diabetes, might be risk factors for hearing loss in individuals with exposure to certain noise levels. The results of this study suggest that impaired fasting glucose should be considered a risk factor for hearing loss. (J Occup Health 2011; 53: 274-279)

“…[20], [21] In hypertension blood viscosity also increases which reduces capillary blood flow, so oxygen transport to the cells of inner ear decreases. Sodium is also retained and extracellular volume increases in hypertension These changes may lead to the development of hypoxia and hearing loss in these patients.…”

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.
