Mediating effects of social and intellectual activities on cognitive decline caused by hearing loss: insights from the China health and retirement longitudinal study (CHARLS)
The findings highlight the association between hearing loss and reduced cognitive function and suggest that greater engagement in social and intellectual activities may be related to better cognitive outcomes. These results support the potential value of enhancing hearing screening and promoting activity engagement among older adults.
