Millions of people worldwide are exposed to harmful levels of noise daily in their work and
leisure environment. This makes noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) a major occupational …

The classic view of sensorineural hearing loss has been that the primary damage targets are
hair cells and that auditory nerve loss is typically secondary to hair cell degeneration …

Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) still remains a problem in developed countries, despite
reduced occupational noise exposure, strict standards for hearing protection and extensive …

Recent research has shown the essential role of reduced blood flow and free radical
formation in the cochlea in noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). The amount, distribution, and …

Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is a major health problem in the United States and other
