Title: Is there a relationship between presbycusis and hyperlipoproteinemia? A literature review. Author: Ray J. Journal: J Otolaryngol; 1991 Oct; 20(5):336-41. PubMed ID: 1960788. Abstract: This paper reviews several articles on the subject of presbycusis, and its relationship to dietary lipids--particularly lipoproteins--as well as hypertension, and noise exposure. Although most studies do reach some sort of consensus, the evidence supporting a relationship between presbycusis and hyperlipoproteinemia (HLP) remains questionable. The etiology of such a connection has not been properly tested, probably due to inadequate laboratory techniques. Future opportunities for exploring this subject are considerable, both in the laboratory and clinical setting. Possible treatment measures for "HLP-hearing loss" are also reviewed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
