In cases of dysarthria, auditory electrophysiological assessment can be important, since it can help diagnose the underlying neurological disease. The objective of this pilot study was to assess the effectiveness of the frequency-following response (FFR) in monitoring the progress of speech therapy in cases of dysarthria due to neurodegenerative disease. It also sought to gauge changes in the patients’ quality of life using a self-report questionnaire. Case report: Two individuals with dysarthria were assessed by the FFR and by the questionnaire “Living with Dysarthria” while undergoing a speech therapy rehabilitation program aimed at improving their speech. It was found that the speech therapy brought benefits in terms of quality of life, in line with the FFR responses. Conclusions: The FFR may be a promising approach to monitoring changes in the central auditory nervous system during speech therapy for dysarthria due to acquired neurodegenerative disease.","PeriodicalId":89975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of hearing science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48358406","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to assess the impacts of factors such as vitamin D and sleep disorder on the risk of hearing loss among hypertensive patients. Material and methods: This prospective cohort study involved 885 patients aged between 25 and 65 years old who visited our ENT and Endocrinology departments. The study was based on biochemical tests, physical examination, hearing assessment, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index test. Statistical analysis used bivariate and multivariate stepwise regression. Results: Of 855 hypertensive patients, 184 (21.5%) had hearing loss. There were statistically significant differences between hypertensive patients with and without hearing loss in terms of BMI, smoking, family history of diabetes, tinnitus, vertigo, and headache. Moreover, there were statistically significant differences between hypertensive patients with hearing loss versus those with normal hearing in terms of vitamin D, calcium, magnesium, potassium, fasting glucose, HbA1C, HDL, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, microalbuminuria, and sleep quality. Among hypertensive patients, a multivariate regression analysis (stepwise method) indicated that vertigo, systolic blood pressure, vitamin D deficiency, numbness in the hand, tinnitus, vigorous activity, metabolic syndrome, sleep disturbance, and obesity were all risk predictors of hearing loss. Conclusions: Controlling hypertension, vitamin D level, sleep, and lifestyle might lower the risk of hearing loss among hypertensive patients.","PeriodicalId":89975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of hearing science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42177205","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Psycon and Matlab’s maximum likelihood procedure (MLP) are two commonly used pieces of software to assess psychoacoustic ability. The present work compares a number of psychoacoustic abilities based on Psycon and MLP. Material and methods: There were 39 participants with normal hearing sensitivity who were enrolled in this study. The psychoacoustic measures assessed were gap detection threshold (GDT), duration discrimination threshold (DDT), difference limen of intensity (DLI), and difference limen of frequency (DLF). These measures were done using both Psycon and MLP, and a comparison was made between the two. An attempt was made to keep the stimuli specifications similar in Psycon and MLP except for the duration of stimuli in GDT. Results: A Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to determine the significance of differences between MLP and Psycon. The results showed no significant difference in DLI, DLF, and DDT between MLP and Psycon; however, a significant difference was found in GDT. Conclusions: It can be concluded that the results of DLI, DLF, and DDT can be generalized between Psycon and MLP. However, further research with a larger sample would strengthen the current study’s findings.","PeriodicalId":89975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of hearing science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43817364","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Articulatory error pattern analyses show a tendency towards vowel substitutions and consonant omissions. There is a dearth of literature on the articulatory characteristics of Indian children who use digital hearing aids. Such information is crucial for speech language pathologists in correcting articulation errors. Hence this study examined the nature of speech sound errors in Malayalam speaking children with hearing impairment who use digital hearing aids. Material and methods: A total of 7 monolingual Malayalam speaking children aged 3–7 years who were diagnosed as having spoken-language disorder secondary to congenital hearing impairment (> 70 dB HL bilaterally) were analysed. Frequently misarticulated vowels and consonants were ascertained from recorded speech samples. Additional error analysis was performed based on error type and the place, manner, and voicing features of the consonants. Results: The short vowel /u/ and long vowel /i:/ were found to be the most frequently misarticulated vowels. The most frequently misarticulated consonants were trills (/r/), affricates (/ ʤ /, / ʧ /), and fricatives (/ ʂ /, / ʃ /). Substitution errors were the most common error type. Place–manner errors and place errors were more frequent than other types of errors. Conclusions: Targeting frequently misarticulated speech sounds supports effective intervention, leading to improved speech intelligibility in children with hearing impairment.","PeriodicalId":89975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of hearing science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44276551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Diagnosis of APD is challenging and there is a need for an adequate, valid, and reliable tool for its screening and diagnosis. The aim of our work was to adapt the Children’s Home Inventory for Listening Difficulties (CHILD; version for parents) into Polish, evaluate its psychometric properties, and assess its potential usefulness as a screening tool. Material and methods: There were 239 parents who participated in the study. Their children were 113 girls and 126 boys aged 5–12 years old (average 8.6 years). Two psychoacoustic tests were conducted on the children: the Frequency Pattern Test (FPT) and the Duration Pattern Test (DPT). The parents filled in two questionnaires: the Children’s Home Inventory for Listening Difficulties (CHILD) and the Scale of Auditory Behaviors (SAB). Results: Reliability of measurements was good, and Cronbach’s alpha coefficient (0.93) showed a high internal consistency for CHILD. Correlation between the CHILD and SAB scores was moderate ( r = 0.66), but correlations with the psychoacoustic tests were low ( r = 0.18 for FPT and 0.29 for DPT). CHILD did not show any difference between children who had normal and abnormal results in the psychoacoustic tests. A ceiling effect was evident for all 15 items of CHILD, with parent scores being generally high (average 6.93) on a scale from 1 to 8 points. Conclusions: In screening for Auditory Processing Disorder, the CHILD questionnaire (version for parents) can be used to assess children’s communication difficulties and listening and understanding skills in various home situations. However, for application to Polish children generally it needs to be verified in other study samples.","PeriodicalId":89975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of hearing science","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44430981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
