Impact of metabolic syndrome on recovery of idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss
2019
Abstract Purpose Metabolic syndrome (MetS) was reported to a risk factor of developing idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL), but limited data exist on its effect on the recovery. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of (MetS) and its components on recovery of patients with ISSNHL. Material and methods 228 ISSNHL patients were divided into MetS group and Non-MetS group according to the diagnostic criteria of MetS, and demographic and clinical characteristics and hearing recovery were reviewed between two groups. Results In total, 86 (37.7%) patients in MetS group, and 142 (62.3%) patients in Non-MetS group. The rate of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, low HDL-C, high TG and obesity were significantly higher in the MetS group than those in the Non-MetS group ( P P Conclusions These results suggest that MetS has a negative impact on the hearing recovery of ISSNHL. High initial hearing threshold and diabetes mellitus were indictors of a poor prognosis of ISSNHL.
