Publication Open Access Transient otoacoustic emissions with contralateral suppression findings in COVID-19 patients(2022-03-01T00:00:00Z) Başöz, Meliha; Gedik, Özge; Özdemir, Sümeyye; Aksoy, Fadlullah; BAŞÖZ, MELIHA; GEDİK, ÖZGE; ÖZDEMİR, SÜMEYYE; AKSOY, FADLULLAHObjectiveThe virus called SARS-CoV-2, which is known as the first epidemic of the twenty-first century, is known to affect the central and peripheral nervous system. In the literature, complaints of sudden hearing loss, tinnitus, and vertigo have been reported in the patients.The aim of this study is to objectively reveal the effect of the coronavirus disease 2019 on the efferent auditory system.MethodsTwenty-three participants, who had the coronavirus disease 2019, were included in the study group, while 20 healthy participants were included in the control group. The test of transient otoacoustic emissions with contralateral suppression was applied to individuals who had normal audiological and immitansmetric evaluations findings.ResultsIn audiological evaluation, a significant difference was observed between the groups in the 125–500 Hz low frequency range and 4 kHz–12.5 kHz high frequency range. In the test of TEOAE and TEOAE with contralateral suppression, a significant difference was observed between the groups at 4 kHz.ConclusionThe effect of the coronavirus disease 2019 on the peripheral hearing system has been shown. Its effect on the efferent hearing system in the high frequency region has been revealed.Publication Open Access The effects of changes in stimulus properties on acoustic stapedius reflex response: a systematic review(2022-07-01T00:00:00Z) Oktay, Esranur; Başöz, Meliha; Kuru, Elif; Bal, Nilüfer; Gedik, Özge; BAŞÖZ, MELIHA; KURU, ELIF; BAL, NİLÜFER; GEDİK, ÖZGEPublication Open Access The effect of occupational exposure to noise and chemical agents on hearing abilities(2024-01-01) Gedik Toker Ö.; Kuru E.; GEDİK, ÖZGE; KURU, ELIFExposure to loud noise or chemical agents may cause hearing disorders such as tinnitus and recruitment, known as an increase in the perception of loudness in addition to hearing loss. Our study aims to evaluate the hearing abilities of hairdressers exposed to noise and chemical agents in the working environment. The study included one hundred hairdressers and one hundred participants who do not work as hairdressers or are nonworkers. The participants' demographic characteristics, working conditions, and auditory complaints were questioned, and each participant completed the Speech, Spatial, and Qualities of Hearing Scale (SSQ). A statistically significant difference was found between the two groups in speech perception, spatial perception, hearing quality, and general SSQ scores. Hairdressers' SSQ scores were significantly lower in all sub-dimensions and general scale scores (p < 0.001). The auditory complaints of the hairdressers and the low SSQ scores indicate that exposure to noise and chemical agents affects the hairdressers' hearing system.
