View clinical trials related to Age-related Hearing Loss.
Filter by:The participants were recruited from elderly subjects in the age range of 60-85 years and audiological assessments, cognitive function assessments, non-invasive brain imaging, behavioral assessments were collected from the normal control group, the elderly deaf non-hearing group and the elderly deaf hearing group according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The project aims to investigate the differences in auditory speech and cognitive function in age-related deafness at the behavioural level, and to investigate the central cortical metabolic mechanisms in age-related deafness at the brain imaging level.
Background: Deafness is one of the nine potentially modifiable risk factors for dementia simulated by the Lancet dementia Prevention, intervention and Care Committee in 2017. Some studies have found that the risk factors of dementia in deafness system, with the increase of the degree of deafness, the risk of cognitive decline increases, while after long-term wear of hearing aids, the deterioration of immediate and delayed memory is less, and the possibility of cognitive decline slows down. Therefore, it is necessary for us to improve the auditory ability of patients with deafness through auditory intervention, so as to slow down its effect on dementia and reduce the incidence of dementia. At present, auditory intervention methods include hearing aid wearing and cochlear implant. However, there are few studies on cognitive function of presbycusis patients in China, and there is no research on how many years of auditory intervention can effectively slow down the incidence of dementia in presbycusis patients with MCI. Therefore, we intend to conduct a prospective cohort study on the changes of cognitive function of presbycusis under hearing aid intervention.
The proposed study is designed to evaluate the effect of at-home executive function training on cognition and mobility in older adults with age-related hearing loss (ARHL), older adults with normal hearing, and middle-aged adults.
The objective of this study is to examine the effects and safety of Liuwei Dihuang pill and placebo in presbycusis with Shen (kidney)-yin deficiency.
The main goal of this study is to identify mitochondrial mutations associated with presbycusis. Patients affected by severe presbycusis and normal hearing controls (according to ISO7029 norm) will be enrolled if satisfying inclusion criteria (aged from 40 to 80 years old) in existing biocollections in the University Hospital of Angers. After DNA extraction, the mitochondrial genome will be sequenced and data in silico analysed.
