[The study of the distortion product emission in the people with hypertriglyceride].

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To study the change of the amplitude and latency of the distortion product emission (DPOAE) in the people with hypertriglyceride. METHOD: The DPOAE amplitude and latency of 30 people with hypertriglyceride and 18 normal was acquired with ILO-V5. RESULT: Although the hearing threshold of pure tone was not affected, but DPOAE amplitude of the people with hypertriglyceride was significantly decreased with the normal people, the changes of latency was not significantly affected. CONCLUSION: The cochlea of patient with hyperlipidemia may be damage in its early-stage. The generating mechanism of DPOAE latency and amplitude may be different.
