ABSTRACT
Objective This study aimed to define research status of age -related hearing loss ,and provide the basis and direction for future research .Methods We have retrieved all relevant literatures on age -related hearing loss from Pubmed ,and conduct an objective analysis of the existing literatures by Bibliometric analytics and co -word analysis method using co -occurrence bibliographic information mining system and SPSS22 .0 software for data analysis .Results There were a large number of articles and journals about presbycusis and age -related hearing loss .Many countries were involved in the research .Literatures and core authors were mainly from developed coun‐tries such as Europe and the United States .The quantity and quality of Chinese literatures were in a leading position in Asia .The researches focused on the common characteristics of patients ,the epidemiology ,characteristics of hear‐ing ,treatment and laboratory studies .There were some new research directions in recent 5 years ,such as factors as‐sociated with the younger ages before developing presbycusis ,standard design and use of questionnaires ,prevention and control .Conclusion Age-related hearing loss will continue to be a hot topic with growing focus on micro and macro development of multi -disciplinary cooperation .The penetration will be the trend for the future research while the prevention will become a new focus of research .
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To identify the newborns who should receive hearing evaluation by hearing screening in high risk newborns; to find and confirm the high risk factors of hearing disorders in high risk newborns.@*METHOD@#The first screening was performed by DPOAE. Newborns did not passed the first screening undertook second screening using DPOAE + ABR. and newborns did not passed the second screening received hearing evaluation. High risk factors of hearing loss were found by Logistic regression analysis.@*RESULT@#Three hundred and twenty-seven cases were screened. The positive ratio in first screening was 37.0%. The positive ratio in second screening was 11.0%. Ten cases were diagnosed as hearing loss and the incidence of hearing loss was 3.39%. High risk factors of hearing loss were asphyxiation, very low born weight (<1,500 g) and head and neck abnormality.@*CONCLUSION@#(1) DPOAE combined with ABR is credible and feasible in hearing screening of high risk newborns. (2) High risk factors of hearing loss were asphyxiation, very low born weight (<1,500 g) and head and neck abnormality in this study.
