Sixty-two patients with unilateral CSOM and complete audiologic and radiologic data were included, comprising 30 with cholesteatoma and 32 without. Evaluations included pure-tone audiometry, speech reception threshold (SRT), speech discrimination score (SDS), and temporal bone computed tomography. Cholesteatoma severity was staged using the EAONO\/JOS classification. Multivariate regression analyses were performed to identify factors associated with mixed hearing loss and air- and bone-conduction pure-tone averages (PTA), with bone-conduction PTA serving as a surrogate for cochlear involvement.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Disease duration was significantly longer in the cholesteatoma group (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.023), while other baseline characteristics were comparable.
