Higher serum aldosterone correlates with lower hearing thresholds: a possible protective hormone against presbycusis

This cross-sectional study assessed 47 adults aged 58–84 to determine whether higher serum aldosterone levels are associated with better hearing function. Audiometric evaluations included pure-tone thresholds, hearing in noise test (HINT), transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAE), and gap detection. Results demonstrated a significant correlation between elevated aldosterone levels and improved

Physiological and neurobiological bases of age-related hearing loss: biotherapeutic implications

This comprehensive review examines the cellular, molecular, and hormonal factors contributing to age-related hearing loss (presbycusis), particularly the roles of sex hormones (estrogen, progesterone) and aldosterone in auditory aging. Estrogen appears to exert neuroprotective effects on auditory function, whereas progesterone may impair it. Aldosterone has been shown to enhance potassium

Bioenergetics in clinical medicine. Studies on coenzyme Q10 and essential hypertension

This study evaluated the bioenergetic role of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in essential hypertension by measuring the specific activities of succinate dehydrogenase-CoQ10 reductase in 65 healthy Japanese adults and 59 hypertensive patients. Results showed significantly lower enzyme activity (p < 0.001) and higher deficiency in the hypertensive group compared to controls.
