Associations of Traumatic Brain Injury and Hearing: Results From the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Neurocognitive Study (ARIC-NCS)
In this community-based cohort, prior TBI was associated with impaired hearing on both self-reported and clinically measured assessments, but these associations were attenuated after adjustment for occupational noise exposure. These results underscore the importance of the consideration of loud noise exposures, which may confound associations of TBI with hearing, in future studies.
