Based on the delta-pure tone average (PTA), patients were divided in two groups: progression (delta-PTA 10 dB or more) or no progression of hearing loss (HL) (delta-PTA<10 dB). The time between the two audiograms was plotted on the y-axis. No significant difference was calculated between the two groups (P=0.06, unpaired t-test).
