Researchers analyzed data from 10,744 Chinese older adults aged 65+ years in the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS) and found a conspicuous survival relationship between hearing status and all-cause mortality for the total population. Participants with hearing impairment (HI) had higher risk of all-cause mortality (HR = 2.29), as compared with their counterparts without HI. The researchers conclude cognitive decline was common in individuals with HI, and those with HI and cognitive impairment further increased mortality risk.
