UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009622	Noise	Any sound which is unwanted or interferes with HEARING other sounds.	Noise Pollution,Noises,Pollution, Noise
D011304	Presbycusis	Gradual bilateral hearing loss associated with aging that is due to progressive degeneration of cochlear structures and central auditory pathways. Hearing loss usually begins with the high frequencies then progresses to sounds of middle and low frequencies.	Presbycuses

D001299	Audiometry	The testing of the acuity of the sense of hearing to determine the thresholds of the lowest intensity levels at which an individual can hear a set of tones. The frequencies between 125 and 8000 Hz are used to test air conduction thresholds and the frequencies between 250 and 4000 Hz are used to test bone conduction thresholds.	Audiometries
