Participants were divided into an Aided Group and a Control Group based on whether they had regularly used hearing aids in the past six months. Audiological, cognitive, emotional, and sleep assessments, as well as resting state electroencephalogram (EEG) features, are supposed to be compared between the two groups.","overall_status":"Active Not Recruiting","phases":[],"study_type":"OBSERVATIONAL","sponsor":"Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University","enrollment":60,"countries":["China"],"start_date":"2024-12-01","completion_date":"2025-03-31","last_update_date":"2025-03-25","source_url":"https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06893432","editorial_summary":"A registered study indexed because it matched monitored longevity research terms.
