Abstract

Background: Otitis media (OM) refers to a common clinical ear disease. Noise seriously damages human hearing function. This study aimed to investigate the effects of various noise types on the hearing function of patients who have recovered from mild OM.

Materials and methods: A total of 160 patients with mild OM treated at our hospital from May 2020 to May 2023 were retrospectively selected for this study. Based on clinical data, the patients were divided into the non-noise group (n = 80) and the noise (n = 80) group. The hearing thresholds of the two groups were compared across various noise types at 500, 1000, and 2000 Hz. In addition, the hearing thresholds of the noise group were compared under the same conditions.

Results: The noise group exhibited significantly higher hearing thresholds at 500, 1000, and 2000 Hz than the non-noise group (P < 0.05). Under traffic, urban construction, and industrial noises, the auditory thresholds at 500, 1000, and 2000 Hz in the noise group were significantly higher than those observed under domestic and speech noises (P < 0.05).

Conclusion: Noise shows a close relationship with the hearing function of patients with OM. Traffic, urban construction, and industrial noises greatly influence the hearing function of patients who have recovered from mild OM.

不同噪音类型对轻度中耳炎患者听觉功能的影响

背景：中耳炎（OM）是临床上常见的耳部疾病。噪声严重损害人的听力功能。本研究旨在探讨各种类型的噪声对轻度中耳炎康复患者听力功能的影响：本研究回顾性选取了 2020 年 5 月至 2023 年 5 月期间在我院接受治疗的 160 例轻度 OM 患者。根据临床数据，将患者分为非噪声组（n = 80）和噪声组（n = 80）。两组患者的听阈在 500、1000 和 2000 Hz 的各种噪声类型中进行了比较。此外，还比较了噪音组在相同条件下的听阈：结果：噪音组在 500、1000 和 2000 赫兹的听阈明显高于非噪音组（P < 0.05）。在交通、城市建设和工业噪声下，噪声组在 500、1000 和 2000 Hz 的听阈明显高于在家庭和语言噪声下观察到的听阈（P < 0.05）：结论：噪声与 OM 患者的听力功能有密切关系。结论：噪声与 OM 患者的听力功能关系密切，交通、城市建设和工业噪声对轻度 OM 患者的听力功能影响很大。

期刊介绍： Noise and Health is the only International Journal devoted to research on all aspects of noise and its effects on human health. An inter-disciplinary journal for all professions concerned with auditory and non-auditory effects of occupational, environmental, and leisure noise. It aims to provide a forum for presentation of novel research material on a broad range of topics associated with noise pollution, its control and its detrimental effects on hearing and health. It will cover issues from basic experimental science through clinical evaluation and management, technical aspects of noise reduction systems and solutions to environmental issues relating to social and public health policy.
