message: I have a few issues with this article:
The article states that noise damage will occur at high levels (>90dB) and begins at 4kHz. I don't think these points are clear or particularly accurate. Later on it seems to clarify these points more precisely (and very well), but may leave the reader feeling there is a contradiction.
It states that presbycusis affects the hearing in the 4-8kHz region, this is not true, it typically affects this region first, but will very often go on to affect all of the speech frequencies.
It states that Menieres Disease affects the low frequencies (250-1kHz) - this is typically the most affected frequencies, but the loss is often not restricted to these frequencies, especially in the later stages.
It mentions adenoid enlargement, this does not cause a sensorineural HL; it does say this, to be fair, but it should be in the conductive HL section.
It also mentions otosclerosis, but this again is primarily a conductive HL, and the explanation of a "hardening" of the stapes is, I think, wrong; it is due to a bony growth on the stapes causing a fixation of the stapes onto the oval window.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.159.138.215 (talk) 01:05, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

message: In medical texts this abbreviation is used a lot. 
Even though Wikipedia has an article about sensorineural hearing loss it doesn't refer the user to this wiki when he types in "SNHL" in the search box.
Can someone add this abbreviation or let the entering of this abbreviation in the search box redirect to this wiki?
I would do it myself if I would be a member and I would know how to do it but since I don't...

message: I looked for an article with the title "Nerve Deafness", because this is the common description of certain types of progressive deafness, usually age related.  Wikipedia did not direct me to a specific article page, so I accepted the option to search for the term within articles.  This article seems to fit the term, but I'm not sure.
If the common term "Nerve Deafness" is best clarified by this article, then that common term should redirect to this article.  I have no idea how to impliment redirection on wikipedia, and do not have the medical expertise to judge if such redirection is appropriate.
Anyone who has the medical expertise to state that this article should or should not receive hits from people who searh on "Nerve Deafness", will you please clarify this position?
TIA.
