“…Personal effects can range from social isolation to depression, security problems, mobility limitations, and income and employment opportunities [3]. Otoscopy plays a key role in etiological diagnosis as well as tonal and vocal audiometry [4]. In our under-equipment exercise conditions, tonal audiometry remains a crucial examination in the diagnosis of deafness, since it allows us to confirm or refute deafness, to guide etiological research and to define the modalities of its diagnosis therapeutic care.…”

Objective: To determine the audiometric profile of deafness in our practice. Materials and Methods: Longitudinal prospective study was conducted out in the ENT department and cervicofacial surgery of Gabriel Toure University Hospital in Bamako, we made an exhaustive sampling of all the patients who consulted for hearing loss, tinnitus, vertigo, hiring report, medical expertise and whose deafness was confirmed to tonal audiometry with an age greater than or equal to 15 years. It was spread over 10 months (June 2016 to March 2017). A total of 200 patients were collected. Exclusion criteria were all patients under 15 years of age as well as deafness related to earwax or foreign bodies, and refusal to participate in the study Results: During our study period, 6055 outpatients were admitted out of which 734 patients underwent audiometric testing and 200 patients (3.30%) met our criteria. The male sex was the most represented with a rate of 60%. The sex ratio was 1.5 or 3 men for 2 women. The 15 to 25 age group was the most represented at 37.5%. The average age was 37.18 years old with extremes ranging from 15 to 83 years old. Pupils/students were the most represented with a rate of 29.5%, followed by housewives in 23%, farmers in 10.5% and military in 10%. As antecedent 26% of our patients had a chronic otitis media (OMC), against 23% who had no antecedent otological and 17% had a traumatic antecedent. Bilateral deafness was the most common with a rate of 64.5%. The mode of progressive appearance was the most frequent in 74.5%. As functional signs 46.22% of our patients had a hearing loss associated with tinnitus. Otoscopic examination was pathological in 34.5% of our patients. Mixed deafness was the most common in 43.35%, followed by perception deafness in 32.19% and transmission How to cite this paper:

“…Hearing impairment and deafness are serious disabilities that can lead to anxiety (1), decreased cognitive function, depression, social isolation (2), and stigmatization. These disabilities are increasing worldwide given that people are living longer and can be more difficult to manage in countries with limited resources for the hearing impaired (3).…”

Objectives To investigate the quality of life (QOL) of adult Mandarin-speaking Chinese Americans after cochlear implantation (CI) using the cross-culturally adapted Chinese Cochlear Implant Quality of Life-10 (CIQOL-10) Global. Study Design Cross-sectional. Setting Tertiary care neurotology practice in New York City. Patients Thirty adult Mandarin-speaking Chinese Americans (22.8–89.4 yr, mean 48.9 yr) with prelingual (12) or postlingual (18) deafness who underwent CI between 1995 and 2020. All patients were at least 1 year from CI activation. Intervention CI. Main Outcomes Measures Chinese CIQOL-10 Global score. Results There were no detectable differences in mean Chinese CIQOL-10 Global scores between the prelingual (mean 51.9, SD 11.0) and postlingual (mean 44.0, SD 16.4) cohorts (p = 0.1; 95% CI, −2.3 to 18.1; Hedges' g = 0.5). Comparison of the overall cohort (mean 47.1, SD 14.8) with previously published CIQOL-10 Global scores of English-speaking American CI users (mean 51.5, SD 10.4) demonstrated a significant difference (p = 0.02; 95% CI, 0.4–8.4; Hedges' g = 0.4). For the overall cohort, multivariable analysis demonstrated that combined household income (p = 0.007, β = 7.4; 95% CI, 0.7–14.0) was positively associated with Chinese CIQOL-10 Global scores. Conclusions This study is the first to evaluate QOL after CI in Mandarin-speaking Chinese American adults. The CIQOL-10 Global scores of Mandarin-speaking Chinese Americans CI users are significantly worse than those of English-speaking American CI users. Combined household income may be positively associated with QOL in the Mandarin-speaking Chinese American CI population. More resources are needed to assess outcomes and support rehabilitation in this population.

“…It leads to social isolation, depression and an accelerated decline in cognitive functions. Diagnosis requires otoscopy and confirmation of the type and degree of hearing loss by audiometry [3]. However, the etiological diagnosis constitutes the major problem as well as its therapeutic management.…”

Objective: To study the epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic aspects of hearing loss in 15-year-olds and over at the CHU GT of Bamako. Materials and Method: This is a longitudinal prospective study carried out in the ENT department of the University hospital Gabriel Toure in Bamako over 13 months (from September 2018 to September 2019). We carried out an exhaustive sampling of all the patients who consulted in the department for hearing loss and whose deafness was confirmed at pure tone audiometry with age greater than or equal to 15 years. The exclusion criteria were all patients under the age of 15 as well as a hearing loss related to earwax or foreign bodies and refusals to participate in the study. Results: Two hundred and thirty (230) patients were collected during the study. Dominated by the male sex with a sex ratio of 1.5 or 3 men for 2 women, with an average age of 38.16 ± 19 years with extremes ranging from 15 to 86 years. Among our patients, 37.40% had unilateral deafness, progressive installation evolving more than 12 weeks with a rate of cases had headaches 41% and had a history of chronic otitis media (CMO) 27%. There were a few cases of mixed type deafness, 30% had mild deafness, 22% moderate deafness and 40% severe deafness, according to the BIAP classification. Among our patients, 22.16% had conductive hearing loss, and those with sensorineural hearing loss accounted for 15.24%. Conclusion: Pure tone audiometry remains essential in the diagnosis of deafness.
