Hearing loss, especially in the low frequency range, often has an age-related component. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of age on the relation between degree of hearing loss and speech recognition. We compared the effects of mild and severe hearing loss on the recognition of sentences spoken in noise at varying signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) between two different age groups (young and old) of hearing-impaired subjects. We further investigated the relation between degree of hearing loss and the ability to carry out complex listening tasks under various conditions. The results showed a large interaction between the age of the subjects and the degree of hearing loss on the recognition of sentences presented in noise. In contrast, there was no difference between the two groups on the performance of the two hearing-impaired subjects on a listening task that involved multiple competing stimuli. It is argued that this change in performance between the two age groups may be due to differences in the processes involved in signal and noise, and that the ability to use the auditory channels for signal detection (i.e. signal separation) is a critical factor in the detection of a speech signal in noise.Pallister-Killian syndrome: phenotypic characteristics of a new syndrome.
The phenotypic features of Pallister-Killian syndrome (PKS) are described. Sixteen children with PKS were studied. The head circumference ranged from -3.5 SD to -2.6 SD and the developmental delay was severe. Five patients had microcephaly and a reduced cognitive level. The thumbs and feet were small, short, and broad. Eighteen per cent had a shortening of the digits. Other malformations were common. The onset of the signs was variable, but most patients had symptoms within the first year of life. PKS can be distinguished from other trisomy 21 syndromes by its unique findings and the presence of an aneuploidy.Mental health and behavioral concerns of young adults with chronic illness.
