Abstract Noise‐induced synaptopathy and relevant hidden hearing loss (NIS NIHHL) have been a hot topic in research for almost 15 years. The progress is summarized this review to address the reversibility of synaptic damage after initial loss, role functional deficit repaired synapses as reason impairment addition deafferentiation caused by per se. evidence supporting repair summarized. It pointed out that coding‐in‐noise (CIND) may not be major problem NIS NIHHL, since solid existence available even animal studies, well human reports. Rather, temporal processing deficits are clearly demonstrated subjects with potentially NIHHL. idea CIND concern NIHHL proposed based upon categorization auditory nerve (ANF) spontaneous rate biased ribbon innervation low‐SR ANF. limitation hypothesis discussed detail. also addresses difficulty translating data humans need new future.
