| Abstract | We examined hearing status in groups of participants diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease (AD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), or presenting with subjective cognitive complaints (CC), as well as healthy elderly individuals (HE). Baseline hearing status differed across the groups, with AD individuals showing higher pure-tone thresholds than HE, CC and MCI groups. MCI individuals who went on to develop AD showed higher thresholds than those who remained stable, although this finding did not reach statistical significance. Hearing thresholds correlated significantly with verbal and non-verbal memory performance in HE participants as well as the patient groups. |
