“…These results extend our understanding of the association among the severity of ARHL (8,9), tinnitus (10,18), physical frailty (13,14,26), and the presence of ARHL and/or tinnitus (17) with HRQoL. Furthermore, these findings provide more evidence on the interaction among ARHL, tinnitus, and physical frailty in their relationship with HRQoL after adjusting for demographic, health-related, and psychosocial factors.…”

Physical frailty is an emerging global health burden, affecting ~11% of older community-dwelling adults in high-income countries and having an even higher prevalence in low-income countries ( 2 , 12 ).…”

“…Model 1 was adjusted for age and sex, whereas model 2 was adjusted for age, sex, household income, education level, marital status, and area of residence. Model 3 was additionally adjusted for BMI, smoking status, alcohol consumption, ADL, and past medical history based on previous studies [29,30]. Associations between type of exercise and HRQoL indices according to age and sex were examined using an ANCOVA after adjusting for all potential confounding variables (age, sex, household income, education level, marital status, area of residence, BMI, smoking status, alcohol consumption, ADL, and past medical history).…”

“…A identificação de tal relação poderá auxiliar no encaminhamento para a reabilitação. (BAEK, et al, 2016) Um estudo de revisão bibliográfica mostrou que os aparelhos auditivos consistem na principal terapia não invasiva para o déficit auditivo moderado em adultos, e tais tecnologias podem ampliar e melhorar a qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde em geral e também a aplicada especificamente à audição. (KITTERICK, et al, 2018)…”
