“…For this analysis, we characterized PTA using clinically defined cut points (normal hearing: ≤ 25 dBHL, hearing loss: >25 dBHL). Frequencies of sound were defined as low (<500Hz), mid (500-2000Hz) and high (>2000Hz) (25). At Year 5, audiometric data were utilized to examine the cross-sectional relationship between audiometrically-defined AHRL and depression status as well as self-reported hearing category.…”

“…For instance, several studies report a positive linkage between a pair of cerebrovascular disease, hearing loss and cognitive impairment, which is being affected by age, education, stroke history and vascular disorder (e.g. hypertension, diabetes) . This line of research also suffers from paying attention to only a small set of factors for the association (excluding social determinants, such as family support and social activity) and/or having a cross‐sectional research design (which cannot analyze a causal relationship between the association and its determinants).…”

[7][8][9][10][11][12] This line of research also suffers from paying attention to only a small set of factors for the association (excluding social determinants, such as family support and social activity) and/or having a cross-sectional research design (which cannot analyze a causal relationship between the association and its determinants). Indeed, new methods might be required for the prediction of the association as a set of multiple dependent variables, given that making a prediction over a set of multiple dependent variables is much less accurate and effective than doing so for a single dependent variable.…”

AimThe present study used a deep learning model (recurrent neural network) for testing: (i) whether social determinants are major determinants of the association among cerebrovascular disease, hearing loss and cognitive impairment in a middle‐aged or older population (hypothesis 1); and (ii) whether the association among the three diseases is very strong in the middle‐aged or older population (hypothesis 2).MethodsData came from the Korean Longitudinal Study of Aging (2014–2016), with 6060 participants aged ≥53 years. The association among the three diseases was divided into eight categories: one category for having no disease, three categories for having one disease, three categories for having two diseases and one category for having three diseases. Variable importance, the effect of a variable on model performance, was used for evaluating the two hypotheses. Hypothesis 1 was based on whether family support, socioeconomic status and social activity in the year 2014 were the top 10 determinants of the association in the year 2016. Hypothesis 2 was based on whether cerebrovascular disease, hearing loss and cognitive impairment in the year 2014 were the top five determinants of the association in the year 2016.ResultsBased on variable importance from the recurrent neural network, cerebrovascular disease (0.0386), cognitive impairment (0.0151) and hearing loss (0.0092) in 2014 were the top three determinants of the association in 2016. Children alive (0.0072), education (0.0049), income (0.0075), friendship activity (0.0042) and marriage (0.0036) in 2014 were the top 10 determinants of the association in 2016.ConclusionsThe findings of the present study support the two hypotheses, highlighting the importance of preventive measures, family support, socioeconomic status and friendship activity for managing the three diseases.

“…A recent area of focus, cardiovascular risk factors, has linked increased body-mass index (BMI), smoking, hypertension, diabetes, poor diet, and lack of physical activity to poorer hearing outcomes. [3][4][5][6][7][8] This study aims to show a correlation between Life's Simple 7 (LS7) and hearing loss. The LS7 is a collection of seven modifiable risk factors, initially proposed by the American Heart Association, to define a person's overall cardiovascular health.…”

Objectives: To evaluate the relationships among the overall cardiovascular health scoring tool, Life's Simple 7 (LS7), and hearing in an African-American cardiovascular study cohort. Methods: Using the Jackson Heart Study's cohort of African Americans, the relationships between the LS7 scoring metric and hearing of 1314 individuals were assessed. Standard audiometric data was collected and hearing loss was defined as a four-frequency average of 500, 1000, 2000, and 4000 Hz greater than 25 dBHL (PTA4). Measures of reported tinnitus and dizziness were also collected. The LS7 scoring tool, which consists of seven individual categories (abstinence from smoking, body mass index, physical activity, healthy diet, total cholesterol <200 mg/dL, normotension, and absence of diabetes mellitus), was used as measure of overall cardiovascular health. Each category of the LS7 was broken down into poor, intermediate, and ideal subgroups as in accordance with the American Heart Association Strategic Planning Task Force and Statistics Committee. Unadjusted and adjusted gamma regression and logistic regression models were constructed for determining relationships between LS7 and hearing loss. Results: Higher total LS7 scores (per 1-unit increase) were associated with lower PTA4 in gamma regression analyses (RR = 0.942, 95% CI, 0.926-0.958, P < .001). This held true even after adjustments for age, sex, education, and history of noise exposure. Using logistic regression analyses to compare LS7 scores to presence of hearing loss, tinnitus, and vertigo; only hearing loss showed a statically significant relationship after adjustments for age, sex, education, and history of noise exposure. Conclusions: This study shows a significant, graded association between higher life's simple seven scores and lower incidence of hearing loss.
