Not just deafness

The relationship between poor hearing and other diseases

Alzheimer's Disease

Research results show that people with severe hearing loss are five times more likely to develop dementia! , moderate to severe hearing loss can have a significant negative impact on cognitive function and memory abilities in older adults. This may be because hearing problems cause social isolation, increased cognitive load, and changes in brain activity patterns in older adults. These factors may make older adults more susceptible to problems such as memory loss and dementia. Therefore, for older adults, identifying and treating hearing problems early may help reduce the risk of cognitive decline and dementia.

Depression

Hearing loss may be linked to depression in older adults. This is because hearing loss can affect the social activities and communication skills of the elderly, causing them to feel lonely, helpless and neglected, which in turn can lead to emotional problems. In addition, hearing loss may also cause the elderly to increase their frustration with life. They may feel worthless or unable to contribute, which may lead to low self-esteem and depression. These emotions may further develop into depression, affecting the mental health and quality of life of the elderly.

Hypertension

Some studies have also found that hearing loss may affect blood pressure control. Hearing loss can lead to increased stress and psychological stress, which can increase blood pressure. In addition, because hearing loss affects the quality of life of older adults, it may make them prone to stress, anxiety, and mood swings, further negatively affecting blood pressure.

Cardiovascular diseases

Hearing loss is also considered an early indicator of cardiovascular disease. Some studies indicate that hearing loss may be associated with cardiovascular risk factors (such as high blood pressure, high blood lipids, diabetes, etc.). Hearing loss may reflect microvascular damage throughout the body, including the tiny blood vessels that affect the blood supply to the inner ear, which may also be implicated in mechanisms involved in the development of cardiovascular disease.

Diabetes

Many studies have found that the risk of hearing loss is higher in people with diabetes, especially if high blood sugar levels persist for a long period of time. Additionally, research shows that people with diabetes may be more likely to experience hearing loss at a faster rate. There are several mechanisms by which diabetes may adversely affect the auditory system. First, a high blood sugar state may damage small blood vessels, blocking the blood supply to tiny blood vessels in the ear, causing damage to inner ear tissue. In addition, high blood sugar may also affect nerve conduction and eardrum function, further leading to hearing loss.

Atrial Fibrillation

The latest 2024 UK medical research found evidence of a significant association between hearing difficulty, hearing aid use and tinnitus and the risk of developing atrial fibrillation. These findings highlight that screening for hearing impairment may facilitate intervention to reduce the risk of atrial fibrillation.
