“…The age of the population ranged from 22 to 82 years, and although the average age of the study population was 57.48 years, part of the sample may experience this type of hearing loss simply due to age. ( 15 ) Presbycusis is represented by four subtypes: sensorial (loss of hair cells), neural (loss of spiral and ganglion neurons), metabolic (atrophy of the stria vascularis), and mechanical (thickening and stiffening of the basilar membrane). ( 16 ) However, because multiple genetic and environmental factors cause presbycusis, most cases are of mixed pathology and affect multiple cell types.…”

“…Portanto, esses pacientes poderiam apresentar esse tipo de perda auditiva em decorrência da idade. ( 15 ) A presbiacusia é representada por quatro subtipos: sensorial (perda de células ciliadas), neural (perda de neurônios espirais e ganglionares), metabólica (atrofia da estria vascular), e mecânica (espessamento e enrijecimento da membrana basilar). ( 16 ) Entretanto, já que múltiplos fatores genéticos e ambientais causam a presbiacusia, a maioria dos casos é de patologia mista e afeta múltiplos tipos celulares.…”

Objective To outline the audiological findings of aphasic patients after cerebrovascular accidents.Methods This is a cross-sectional study performed between March 2011 and August 2012 in the Speech, Language, and Hearing Pathology Department of the Universidade Federal de São Paulo. A total of 43 aphasic subjects (27 men) were referred for audiological evaluation after stroke, with mean age of 54.48 years. Basic audiological evaluation tests were performed, including pure tone audiometry, speech audiometry (speech recognition threshold and word recognition score), immittance measures (tympanometry and contralateral acoustic reflex), and transient otoacoustic emissions.Results Sensorineural hearing loss was prevalent (78.6%). Speech recognition threshold and word recognition score were not obtained in some patients because they were unable to perform the task. Hearing loss was a common finding in this population.Conclusion Comprehension and/or oral emission disruptions in aphasic patients after stroke compromised conventional speech audiometry, resulting in the need for changes in the evaluation procedures for these patients.

Simplified Signs presents a system of manual sign communication intended for special populations who have had limited success mastering spoken or full sign languages. It is the culmination of over twenty years of research and development by the authors. The Simplified Sign System has been developed and tested for ease of sign comprehension, memorization, and formation by limiting the complexity of the motor skills required to form each sign, and by ensuring that each sign visually resembles the meaning it conveys. Volume 1 outlines the research underpinning and informing the project, and places the Simplified Sign System in a wider context of sign usage, historically and by different populations.

Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the language and communication needs of various individuals who have difficulty expressing themselves either through speech and/or by using one of the full and genuine sign languages of Deaf people. The authors propose the integration of the Simplified Sign System, a manual sign-communication system that is comprised of iconic and easily formed signs, into the environments of persons with various communication difficulties, including individuals with autism, aphasia, intellectual disability, or cerebral palsy. Various misconceptions about sign training are tackled and countered by information highlighting the benefits of sign usage for many different people. The authors then present the principles on which their sign system is based, including iconicity, ease of production, the relatively broad conceptual base of many signs, the standardization of the signs, and the provision of a core vocabulary. These principles also make them easier to learn and remember by other potential users of the system, including international travellers, parents adopting children from other countries, elderly persons who have developed hearing impairments, foreign language instructors, and students learning an additional spoken language.
