“…Uma perda auditiva sensorioneural acontece na orelha interna devido a degradac ¸ão dos sensores nervosos impedindo que as vibrac ¸ões sonoras sejam transmitidas ao cérebro (ZARENOE, 2012). As causas deste tipo de perda auditiva são diversas, sendo ela considerada pelos especialistas a mais comum podendo comprometer a acuidade auditiva em ambos ouvidos (CONN, 2017).…”

“…Quando ocorre uma perda auditiva mista tanto orelha externa e/ou média quanto a orelha interna são comprometidas. Assim, a combinac ¸ão de fatores que provocam as perdas auditivas condutivas e neurossensoriais resultam em uma perda auditiva mista (ZARENOE, 2012). Normalmente um exame que detecta a perda, o grau e a configurac ¸ão auditiva é o ATL, aspectos fundamentais serão discutidos na próxima sec ¸ão.…”

Neste trabalho é apresentado um método capaz de auxiliar na interpretação das avaliações audiológicas. O modelo audiométrico fuzzy proposto permite reproduzir o audiograma utilizado em audiometria tonal limiar por meio de intervalos, diferenciando-o do convencional. As funções de pertinência foram elaboradas para atender as características do sistema e o conjunto de base de regra foi construído fundamentado na literatura especializada. A implementação computacional desenvolvida propôs estabelecer uma relação entre as entradas de níveis de pressão sonora determinadas por via aérea e via óssea com as saídas tendo como respostas o tipo, o grau e as configuração das perdas auditivas. O desempenho do modelo foi testado por meio de dados de audiogramas retirados da literatura especializada que descrevem o quadro clínico da audição. Os resultados mostraram-se análogos e satisfatórios perante ao diagnóstico prescrito.

“…Hearing loss is divided into categories according to the degree of hearing impairment. (1) The most common categories of hearing loss classifications are a mild, moderate, severe, and profound hearing loss. Hearing loss is a natural consequence of aging, as our ability to hear decreases, and it is difficult for us to hear speech.…”

Background: Mental health is integrated into PHC as a strategy of WHO to fill the gap in mental health treatment. Part of this strategy needs a level of task shifting so that mental health care is provided by different level of PHC workers and not only specialists such as psychiatrists and psychologists. Objectives: To assess the knowledge and attitudes of family doctors regarding the provision of psychological health in PHCC and if there is an association between the certificates of these family doctors and their Knowledge and attitudes to psychological health. Subjects and Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study with analytic elements was conducted in 8 family health care centers in Baghdad city/Al-Karkh. Data was collected via questionnaire form which consists of three domains: Domain one includes sociodemographic data, domain two was about knowledge and consists of (7) questions and domain three consisted of (12) questions about the attitude of physicians regarding mental health. A convenient sample of (83) family health care physicians were included in the current study. Results: The mean age of participants was 42 years (range: 27 – 53). The results revealed that 22.9% of participants were male, 77.1% were female. The percentage of mental illness seen by the physicians daily in the health care center was (15.7%). Physicians with higher degree certificates obtained higher knowledge scores in comparison to residents or practitioners as well as the females reported a significantly higher score of knowledge in comparison to males. Moreover, higher scores of positive attitudes were found. Conclusion: Physicians with higher certificates had more knowledge and attitude than other certificates; therefore, raising the awareness among family physicians about mental health services through making workshops, symposiums, more training courses is recommended.

“…Studies investigating prevalence of tinnitus have highlighted that indications might start in several diverse places in the auditory system, and may have numerous causes, such as conductive hearing loss, can be because of otosclerosis and ear-related infections in the middle ear or problems in the cochlea: examples include presbycusis, Meniérè's disease and sudden onset of sensorineural hearing loss (Billue, 1998;Zarenoe, 2012).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the mediating role of psychological problems (stress, anxiety, depression) between hearing impairment (HI) and tinnitus in tinnitus patients. Sample comprised of 110 patients (male, n=70; female, n=40). Design/methodology/approach The purposive sampling technique was used based on correlational design. Two scales, tinnitus handicap inventory developed by Newman et al. (1996), and depression, anxiety and stress scale developed by Lovibond and Lovibond (1995), were employed to assess tinnitus, anxiety, stress and depression among tinnitus patients. Findings The study revealed that tinnitus was positively significant correlated with depression (r=0.55, p<0.001), anxiety (r=0.63, p<0.001), stress (r=0.54, p<0.001) and hearing loss (r=0.81, p<0.001). The results also revealed that hearing loss was positively significant predictor for tinnitus (β=20.72, p<0.001). Further, it was revealed that tinnitus was positively significant predicted by anxiety (β=2.62, p<0.001), stress (β=2.33, p<0.001) and depression (β=2.71, p<0.001); the interaction between psychological symptoms and hearing loss was negatively significant predictor for stress (β=−0.51, p<0.001), anxiety (β=−0.57, p<0.001) and depression (β=−0.62, p<0.001). Moreover, it was revealed that female tinnitus patients were more predisposed to stress, anxiety and depression as compared to male tinnitus patients. Results also elaborated that those tinnitus patient who had profound HI were less inclined toward psychological problems as compared to those tinnitus patients who had mild to moderate level of HI. This study would be helpful for the clinical setting to tackle the psychological problems of tinnitus patients. Research limitations/implications This study consisted on population from urban cities of Pakistan; therefore, the findings cannot be generalized on overall population. In future, descriptive as well as experimental studies will be beneficial to describe the mechanism of tinnitus across gender in detail. Native tool for measuring gender-related problems would be effective in future as it integrates cultural aspects as well. Originality/value There is a consensus across researchers that tinnitus is one of the most important biological problem which initiates various other psychological problem (Minen et al., 2014; Vogel et al., 2014). Numerous studies have been conducted to find out the relationship of tinnitus with various psychological and biological factors (Boi et al., 2012; Li et al., 2014; Marciano et al., 2003; McCormack et al., 2015; Møller et al., 2010; Udupi et al., 2013; Zöger et al., 2006).
