Relationships between hearing impairment with 7‐year cognition and cognitive change: Results from the Study of Latinos‐ Investigation of Neurocognitive Aging (SOL‐INCA)

Hearing impairment among Hispanics/Latinos has been associated with poorer cognition, potentially increasing mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia risk. We aimed to examine associations between baseline hearing impairment with 1) cognition at visit 2 (7‐years later, on average), 2) 7‐year average change in cognition, and 3) mild cognitive impairment (MCI) at visit 2 among diverse Hispanics/Latinos.
