Abstract

Neurological deafness or sensorineural hearing loss is a hearing loss caused by damage to the cochlea, vestibulocochlear nerve (N.VIII), or the nerve pathways that connect the ear to the brain. Indonesia is part of 4 countries in Asia that have a high prevalence of sensorineural hearing loss, namely 4.6%. Neurological deafness is caused by several factors, including age, genetic factors, and environmental factors. Some studies also show that hypertension, diabetes, and hypercholesterolemia can predispose to neural deafness. One of the complications caused by diabetes mellitus is hearing loss caused by microangiopathy. Gender has also been linked as a risk factor that causes neural deafness. This study aims to determine the relationship between diabetes mellitus and gender with the incidence of neurological deafness in adult patients in the city of Surakarta. This study used secondary data from adult neurologically deaf patients aged >18 years who had diabetes mellitus. This research design uses cross sectional. The total sample size was 67 respondents. The data obtained were analyzed using the chi-square test and logistic regression test. The results of this study stated that there was a relationship between diabetes mellitus and the incidence of neural deafness (p=0.000), there was a relationship between gender and the incidence of neural deafness, namely male gender (p=0.025). A significant relationship was found between diabetes mellitus and gender and the incidence of neurological deafness in adult patients in the city of Surakarta.

Abstract

Indonesia ranks fourth in Southeast Asia with a 2.3% prevalence of sensorineural hearing loss, a condition that may result from various risk factors including diabetes mellitus (DM) and obesity. DM can impair cochlear vascularization, while obesity significantly affects vascular function, potentially impacting the auditory system. This study aims to analyze the relationship between type 2 DM and obesity with sensorineural hearing loss. An observational analytic study with a cross-sectional approach was conducted on 64 participants aged 18–60 years, selected via purposive sampling. Type 2 DM was diagnosed by internal medicine consultants, and obesity was assessed using waist-to-hip ratio measurements. Data analysis employed Fisher's exact test and logistic regression. The study was ethically approved by the Health Ethics Committee of RS PKU Muhammadiyah Surakarta (No. 05/KEPK/RS.PKU/X/2024). Results showed a significant correlation between type 2 DM and sensorineural hearing loss (p=0.037) and between obesity and sensorineural hearing loss (p=0.001). The odds ratio for type 2 DM was 12.031, while for obesity it was 58.059, indicating that obesity poses a substantially higher risk. In conclusion, type 2 DM and obesity are significantly associated with the occurrence of sensorineural hearing loss, suggesting that addressing these risk factors may help reduce its prevalence.
