Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Gerontology
  • Genetics

Background:

  • Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is a prevalent condition in elderly populations.
  • Pathophysiological changes in the inner ear contribute to ARHL.
  • Distinguishing normal aging from other factors influencing hearing loss is challenging.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the structure and function of the inner ear.
  • To examine the pathophysiology of ARHL.
  • To evaluate genetic factors, including heritability and modifier genes, involved in ARHL.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on inner ear function and aging.
  • Analysis of pathophysiological processes underlying ARHL.
  • Evaluation of genetic analyses for identifying ARHL-related genes.

Main Results:

  • Genetic factors significantly influence the aging process and ARHL.
  • Intrinsic and environmental factors interact with genetics.
  • Age-related hearing deficits have substantial physical, functional, and mental health consequences.

Conclusions:

  • A comprehensive understanding of aging's effects on auditory function is crucial for supporting elderly individuals.
  • Hearing aids offer partial correction, but holistic rehabilitative needs extend beyond amplification.
  • Further research into genetic factors is essential for better managing ARHL.
