終生噪音暴露與老化交互作用：對巴勒斯坦工人聽力閾值、語音辨識能力及耳鳴的影響

// Lifetime Noise Exposure and Its Interaction With Ageing: Effects on Audiometric Thresholds, Speech-In-Noise Perception, and Tinnitus for Palestinian Workers

本研究針對巴勒斯坦勞工，分析終生噪音暴露與年齡對聽力的影響｜結果顯示年齡是聽力損失與語音理解困難的主要因素，噪音暴露主要在44歲以上成人中加劇聽力下降｜年齡與噪音未對高頻聽力、語音辨識或耳鳴產生顯著交互作用，強調老化為主因，噪音控制仍具關鍵實務價值。

// This study examined how lifetime noise exposure and age affect hearing in Palestinian workers using audiometry and speech-in-noise tests. Results showed age was the main factor linked to hearing loss and speech difficulties, with noise exposure worsening standard audiometric thresholds mainly in adults aged 44 and older. No significant combined effects of age and noise were found on extended high-frequency hearing, speech-in-noise, or tinnitus. The findings suggest aging is the dominant influence on hearing loss, but noise control remains important, especially for older adults.
