摘要

Introduction

Chronic subjective tinnitus complaint (CSTC) is highly prevalent in metabolic syndrome (MS) elderly. In 60 obese MS elderly with CSTC, studying the response of CSTC-related discomfort, MS components, and CSTC severity to lifestyle-modification approach was the aim of this study.

Methods

In this randomized/controlled lifestyle-modification trial, the recruitment of 60 obese MS elderly with CSTC from a local general hospital was randomly executed. The recruited elderly with MS and CSTC were randomly assigned to a study group (performed lifestyle-modification approach and the components of this 12-week approach were on-electrical treadmill walking plus diet restriction) or waitlist/control group (n = 30). Besides MS components/variables such as elderly’s waist circumference (WC), elderly’s fasting glucose in serum (FGIS), elderly’s triglycerides (TriGly), elderly’s blood pressure, and elderly’s high-density lipoprotein (HDLipo), lifestyle-modification approach’s outcomes of this trial were elderly’s body mass index, visual analogue scale (VAS) of CSTC-related discomfort, tinnitus handicap inventory (THI), and VAS of CSTC severity.

Results

Tracking all outcomes of this lifestyle-modification approach in the study group (n = 30 MS elderly with CSTC) showed significant improvements while the control group’s outcome did not improve.

Conclusion

BMI, VAS of CSTC severity, components of MS (WC, FGIS, blood pressure, TriGly, and HDLipo), THI, and VAS of CSTC-related discomfort could be improved after involving obese MS elderly with CSTS in a 12-week lifestyle-modification approach.
