The contribution of family history to hearing loss in an older population.

Ear and hearing - 1 Aug 2008

McMahon Catherine M, Kifley Annette, Rochtchina Elena, Newall Philip, Mitchell Paul

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Although it has been well established that the prevalence of and severity of hearing loss increase with age, the contribution of familial factors to age-related hearing loss cannot be quantified. This is largely because hearing loss in older people has both genetic and environmental c...
