This paper stresses the relatively high prevalence of auditory abnormality in multiple sclerosis. An auditory test battery consisting of the acoustic reflex (AR), the auditory brainstem response (ABR), the masking level difference (MLD) and speech audiometry (SA) was administered to 62 patients with diagnosed 'definite' multiple sclerosis. The AR showed the highest identification rate (71%). SA was next (55%), followed by the ABR (52%) and the MLD (45%). The combination of an abnormality on either AR, ABR or SA yielded a 90% identification rate. Interestingly, the combination of AR or SA or MLD yielded an 87% identification rate without any contribution from ABR.
本文强调了多发性硬化症中听觉异常的相对高发生率。对62例已确诊为“明确”型多发性硬化症的患者进行了一组听觉测试，包括声反射（AR）、听觉脑干反应（ABR）、掩蔽级差（MLD）和言语测听（SA）。声反射显示出最高的识别率（71%）。言语测听次之（55%），随后是听觉脑干反应（52%）和掩蔽级差（45%）。声反射、听觉脑干反应或言语测听中任何一项异常的组合产生了90%的识别率。有趣的是，声反射或言语测听或掩蔽级差的组合产生了87%的识别率，且听觉脑干反应没有任何贡献。
