The relationship between sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) and Diabetes mellitus has been known since more than 150 years. The pathophysiology of diabetes related hearing loss is speculative. Hearing loss is usually, bilateral, gradual onset, affecting higher frequencies. This study aims at knowing the prevalence of SNHL in DM and its relation to age, sex, duration of DM and control of DM. A total of 50 type 2 diabetics of age group 30-65 years were involved in the study. FBS, PPBS, HbA1c of all the subjects were done and later subjected to PTA. The type and severity of hearing loss was noted. Occurrence of SNHL was later compared with age, sex, duration, and control of DM. Sensorineural hearing loss was found in 66 % of type II diabetic patients and 34 % were found normal. Out of 50 diabetes mellitus patients, 33 patients had SNHL. All cases of SNHL detected were of gradual in onset and no one had hearing loss of sudden onset. Normal hearing was found in 34 % of patients, whereas 54 % of patients had mild hearing loss and 12 % of patients had moderate hearing loss. Association of hearing loss of DM patients with sex of the patient is insignificant. However there is significant association between older age group, longer duration and uncontrolled DM with that of SNHL. In subjects with HbA1c more than 8 and duration of diabetes mellitus more than 10 years prevalence of SNHL is more than 85 %, which is statistically significant. Sensorineural hearing loss in diabetes mellitus is gradually progressive involving high frequency thresholds. Hearing threshold increases with increasing age duration of diabetes and also high level of HbA1c greater than 8 %.

“…Positive correlation between duration of DM and severity of DM were supported by other authors . Similarly, the incidence of diabetic neuropathy was higher with increasing DM duration . While it may appear that the observations regarding relationship of DM duration and occurrence of HL are divergent, logistic regressions was more in support of no association, four of the studies included in this review statistically showed no relationship, while only one did show a relationship.…”

Type 2 diabetic patients had significantly higher incidence for at least the mild degree of HL when compared with controls. Mean PTA thresholds were greater in diabetics for all frequencies but were more clinically relevant at 6000 and 8000 Hz. Prolonged ABR wave V latencies in the diabetic group suggest retro-cochlear involvement. Age and duration of DM play important roles in the occurrence of DM-related HL.

Background: sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is the common entity among uncontrolled diabetes patients, mainly in long term hyperglycemia. SNHL is mild to severe in nature. Aims and Objectives: The aims of this study were to evaluate sensory neural hearing loss in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Materials and Methods: We undertook that this prospective observational study which includes patients presented with DM to the department of ENT in Chirayu Medical College and Hospital, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, was planned for hearing evaluation during period of June 2020-November 2021, total 42 patients of age group 25-65 years were taken for the study. Results: On hearing assessment 29 (69.04%) cases were having SNHL and 13 (30.95%) cases were having normal hearing. Only 10 (23.80%) control were having SNHL and 32 (76.19%) control were having normal hearing. There was statistically significant association found between diabetes and SNHL. SNHL was found in less number of young cases and it was found in most of old age patients. Conclusion: The severity and prevalence of hearing loss are more if duration of hyperglycemia is more and if delay in starting treatment in diabetic child. SNHL is bilateral and mostly mild in the early stage.
