A ground-breaking study led by a team of medical researchers from various Danish institutions has unveiled compelling evidence suggesting that using hearing aids could serve as a crucial factor in reducing the risk of dementia among elderly individuals grappling with hearing difficulties. Published in JAMA Otolaryngology—Head & Neck Surgery, this research seeks to find the connection between hearing loss and the onset of dementia. Their findings revealed that older individuals with hearing loss who did not employ hearing aids were at a 20 per cent higher risk of developing dementia than their counterparts with normal hearing.
