Background: Tinnitus is the perception of sound without an external source, and it can lower one’s quality of life. A metabolic disease called
dyslipidemia is brought on by uneven and excessive meals as well as sedentary lifestyle. Reduced hearing and tinnitus can result from altered
cochlear blood flow and fluidity caused by high blood lipid levels. Aim and Objectives: The objective of this study To examine whether or
not tinnitus was associated with increased level of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TRG), low density lipoprotein (LDL), and high‑density
lipoprotein. Patients and Methods: Patients were split into two groups for this case–control research at Benha University Hospital: in Group A:
100 sufferers made up the tinnitus group, whereas 100 healthy individuals made up the control group in Group B. All patients had a thorough
history‑taking process, a physical examination, laboratory tests, and imaging. Results: Regarding TRGs, there were a lot of differences between
the two groups. Conclusion: The findings showed that patients with subjective tinnitus had significantly higher levels of TC, TRG, and LDL.
This rise suggests that hyperlipidemia, which is accompanied by altered lipid metabolism, may play a role in the genesis of tinnitus. These
variables can serve as a brand‑new tinnitus marker. These results lead us to propose that serum lipid levels may be helpful in the routine clinical
diagnosis and prognosis of subjective tinnitus, and that patients with dyslipidemia should receive the proper care. |
