relationship between hearing loss and representative kidney disease, diabetes mellitus, rheumatoid arthritis, arterial sclerosis, stroke,
chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, cataracts, hyperlipidemia and immune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
In addition, hearing loss caused by aging, namely the influence of bone density and menopause in women on hearing loss, was
reviewed. |
