Abstract

A total of 232 patients aged 25-67 years (female - 40.5%, male - 59.5%) were examined. They were divided into 3 groups: Group I - 107 (46.12%) patients with bilateral sensorineural hearing loss (BSHL) against the background of metabolic syndrome (MS); Group II - 63 (27.16%) patients with BSHL without MS; Group III - 62 (26.72%) patients with MS without hearing impairment. The control group - 30 healthy individuals. The presence of the phenomenon of accelerated loudness increase (PALE) of sound in patients of the first group was noted more often (64.5%) compared to the second group (51.5%). PALE was detected in 6.5% of patients in the third group. In the first group, 100% speech intelligibility was not achieved more often (83%) compared to the second group (69.4%). The a direct relationship with the increasing degree of hearing impairment and the increase in the number of patients who did not achieve 100% speech intelligibility.
