Novel Pathogenic Variant Confirms the Association of REST and Jones Syndrome

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Jones syndrome (JS) is an ultra‐rare condition characterized by gingival fibromatosis and progressive sensorineural hearing loss. It has been associated with a pathogenic REST exon‐5 variant (c.2670_2673del) in a Finnish family. We describe the first Italian family with JS in which a novel pathogenic REST exon‐5 variant (c.2645T>G) was identified ...

Hearing Threshold Estimation With Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emission Growth Functions in People With Intellectual Disabilities in an Outreach Setting

Journal of Intellectual Disability Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background People with intellectual disabilities often have undetected hearing loss. Methods In this prospective observational study featuring 110 adults with intellectual disabilities, hearing evaluations based on objective hearing threshold estimation using distortion‐product otoacoustic emission growth functions (DPOAEgfs) were performed in
