Overview

Cohort study shows no association between reduced depression and cognitive performance in adults post-CI, suggesting complex dynamics.

Key Points

  • One year after cochlear implantation, significant improvements in hearing ability and decreased depression were observed.
  • Participants showed moderate cognitive performance improvement; however, this was not statistically significant.
  • Differences in depression and cognitive performance changes were not associated, indicating complex relationships.
  • Older adults demonstrated greater improvement in semantic fluency compared to younger adults with cochlear implants.
