Our systematic review delves into the intricate relationship between DM and hearing impairment in animal models. Future research should focus on targeted therapies to enhance cochlear mitochondrial function, alleviate oxidative stress, and regulate apoptosis. The association between SNHL and social isolation as well as cognitive decline underscores the necessity for innovative therapeutic modalities addressing yet undiscovered mechanisms. Translating findings from animal models to human studies will validate these findings, offering a synergistic approach to effectively manage DM-associated co-morbidities such as hearing impairment.
