2. Inner ear regeneration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inner_Ear_Regeneration

   Because mammals have very limited hair cell regenerative capacity, humans have developed alternative methods of dealing with hearing loss. Hearing aids are devices that sit in the ear and amplify sound, which helps with age-induced partial hair cell loss. [10] Cochlear implants are a more invasive treatment that bypass the hair cells completely ...

3. Regenerative medicine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_medicine

   Regenerative medicine deals with the "process of replacing, engineering or regenerating human or animal cells, tissues or organs to restore or establish normal function". [1] This field holds the promise of engineering damaged tissues and organs by stimulating the body's own repair mechanisms to functionally heal previously irreparable tissues ...

4. Health effects from noise - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_effects_from_noise

   Psychological health effects from noise also include depression and anxiety. Individuals who have hearing loss, including noise induced hearing loss, may have their symptoms alleviated with the use of hearing aids. Individuals who do not seek treatment for their loss are 50% more likely to have depression than their aided peers. [36]

5. Auditory exclusion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_exclusion

   Auditory exclusion is a form of temporary loss of hearing occurring under high stress. As such it is related to tunnel vision and "the slowing of time in the mind". [1] [2] [3] Auditory exclusion happens as a result of the physiological effects of the acute stress response, specifically an increased heart rate.

6. Hearing loss - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hearing_loss

   The association between age-related hearing loss and Alzheimer's disease was found to be nonsignificant, and this finding supports the hypothesis that hearing loss is associated with dementia independent of Alzheimer pathology. [34] There are several hypotheses about the underlying causal mechanism for age-related hearing loss and cognitive ...

7. Auditory fatigue - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_fatigue

   Auditory fatigue is defined as a temporary loss of hearing after exposure to sound. This results in a temporary shift of the auditory threshold known as a temporary threshold shift (TTS). The damage can become permanent ( permanent threshold shift , PTS) if sufficient recovery time is not allowed before continued sound exposure. [ 1 ]
