At each visit, a baseline HPD fit test was performed using either a 3M foam or pre-molded earplug, as chosen by the workers. Workers who failed to meet targeted levels were trained and retested. Once they failed again, the other earplug was selected, and training was provided until they achieved the PAR target.Study sample: 192 textile workers into three noise exposure level groups (low, medium, high).Results: The median baseline PAR was 10 dB at the initial visits and 13 dB at the follow-up visits, and obtained by foam earplug users was 20 dB, which was higher than that obtained by pre-molded earplug users [12 dB (95% CI, 10-15 dB)]. The highest median baseline PAR was obtained by the high noise level group, followed by the median and low noise level groups. Training significantly increased the PAR.Conclusions: Multiple types of earplugs need to be offered to workers to deal with individual differences in attenuation, preferences, and exposure levels. Training and stricter compliance policies can improve HPD use and fitting, contributing to better hearing health.","PeriodicalId":13759,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Audiology","volume":" ","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142464501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Domains extracted for analyses were memory and concentration (SCC) and loneliness, depression, sleep and vision (dementia RF) and self-reported hearing problems (SHP). Prevalence rates and associations with demographic variables and SHP were examined.Results: SCC were highly prevalent, with over half of the patients reporting memory or concentration problems. Regarding dementia RF, 68% reported sleeping problems and > 50% reported sadness, anxiety or depressed mood. SHP correlated significantly with self-reported memory problems, loneliness, and vision problems.Conclusion: This descriptive cohort-study suggests a high risk of cognitive issues within the audiology clinic population, indicated by the high prevalence of SCC and some dementia RF.

Two different adjustment sequences were tested. Realistic everyday sound scenes in a laboratory environment were presented. The difference between the ears regarding their speech recognition in noise was tested with two spatial conditions, unaided as well as with the prescriptive formula and the self-adjusted setting.Study sample: Nineteen experienced hearing aid users (median age 76 years) with different degrees of AHL were invited to participate in this study.Results: Participants adjusted a higher gain slope across frequency in the worse ear than in the better one. The two adjustment sequences resulted in significantly different adjustment durations and gain settings.

Five types of machine learning algorithm were compared within a nested k-fold cross-validation procedure.Study sample: A set of 482 suprathreshold ABR waveforms were used. These were recorded from 81 participants with audiometric thresholds within normal limits.Results: A convolutional recurrent neural network (CRNN) outperformed the other algorithms evaluated. The algorithm labelled 95.9% of ABR waves within ±0.1 ms of the target. The mean absolute error was 0.025 ms, averaged across the outer validation folds of the nested cross-validation procedure. High confidence levels were generally associated with greater wave-labelling accuracy.Conclusions: Machine learning algorithms have the potential to assist clinicians with ABR interpretation.

On each trial, sequences of 2-second recordings varying the habitat, season and period of the day were presented diotically at a nominal SPL of 60 or 80 dB.Results: Discrimination scores were above chance level for both groups, but they were poorer for HI than NH listeners. On average, the scores of HI listeners were relatively well accounted for by those of NH listeners tested with stimuli spectrally-shaped to match the frequency-dependent reduction in audibility of individual HI listeners. However, the scores of HI listeners were not significantly correlated with pure-tone audiometric thresholds and age.Conclusions: These results indicate that the ability to discriminate natural soundscapes associated with changes in habitat, season and period of the day is disrupted but it is not abolished. The deficits of the HI listeners are partly accounted for by reduced audibility. Supra-threshold auditory deficits and individual listening strategies may also explain differences between NH and HI listeners.","PeriodicalId":13759,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Audiology","volume":" ","pages":"809-818"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71423447","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Past users of hearing aids and family members of past users both identified devices factors as barriers to use.Conclusions: Differences in reasons for non-use may provide further insight for researchers and clinicians and help inform future clinical practice in addressing the low uptake and use of hearing aids by people with hearing loss and the role of family members in audiological rehabilitation.","PeriodicalId":13759,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Audiology","volume":" ","pages":"794-801"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49690386","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
