// This study examined why more recent cohorts of 70-year-olds in Sweden have better hearing by analyzing education, occupation, blood pressure, and smoking as mediators. Using two birth cohorts tested four decades apart, mediation analysis showed education was the main factor improving hearing, followed by occupation and smoking. Effects differed by sex, with education more important for women and occupation for men. The findings suggest lifestyle and socioeconomic changes partly explain hearing improvements and highlight targets for prevention.
