Studies on Auditory Thresholds in Normal Man and in Patients with Adrenal Cortical Insufficiency: The Role of Adrenal Cortical Steroids*

Henkin, Robert I.
RESUMO
Auditory thresholds for sinusoidal tones were determined in eight patients with adrenal cortical insufficiency (four with Addison's disease and four with panhypopituitarism) and compared to those in normal volunteers. In adrenal cortical insufficiency (ACI) the auditory detection sensitivity is significantly more acute than that of normal subjects over most of the frequency range, but especially in the region of greatest hearing sensitivity of normal subjects, 1,000 to 2,000 cycles per second (cps).
