Using mouse models, researchers at the University of Rochester Medical Center found that the location of amyloid plaques in the brains of Alzheimer's patients could be important in hearing decline and that auditory brainstem responses (ABR) might help with diagnosis.

Researchers found that patients with hearing loss (HL) did not seem to have higher rates of hospital readmissions. However, they found that there was a high percentage of patients who had HL, and these people reported difficulties communicating with clinicians. The research has potential implications for improving patient-physician interactions and long-term health outcomes.
