ABSTRACT

Brainstem auditory evoked response (BAER) and the mid latency response (MLR) were recorded in 25 diabetic men and compared with a group of 25 control subjects. The threshold of hearing was higher (P less than 0.001) in the patients. The BAER peak latencies were also significantly prolonged in both the ears; however, the degree of prolongation was more prominent in the right ear. The interpeak latencies of waves I-III were also prolonged (P less than 0.01) in the left ear, with non significant increase noticed in the right ear also. The wave V amplitude was lower (P less than 0.05) in diabetics. The MLR, on the other hand, was not affected in patients. These findings suggest functional impairment in the auditory pathway in patients of diabetes mellitus.
