Cochlear Implantation From the Perspective of Genetic Background

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 303, Issue 3, Page 563-593, March 2020., 2020
ABSTRACT While cochlear implantation (CI) technology has greatly improved over the past 40 years, one aspect of CI that continues to pose difficulties is the variability of outcomes due to numerous factors involved in postimplantation performance. The electric acoustic stimulation (EAS) system has expanded indications for CI to include patients with ...

Development of the stria vascularis and potassium regulation in the human fetal cochlea : insights into hereditary sensorineural hearing loss [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is one of the most common congenital disorders in humans, afflicting one in every thousand newborns. The majority is of heritable origin and can be divided in syndromic and nonsyndromic forms. Knowledge of the expression

A novel pathogenic variant in the MARVELD2 gene causes autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss in an Iranian family [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Hearing loss (HL) is the most common sensorineural disorder and one of the most common human defects. HL can be classified according to main criteria, including: the site (conductive, sensorineural and mixed), onset (pre-lingual ...

Mutation analysis of SLC26A4 (Pendrin) gene in a Brazilian sample of hearing-impaired subjects

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2018
Background Mutations in the SLC26A4 gene are associated with Pendred syndrome and autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness (DFNB4). Both disorders have similar audiologic characteristics: bilateral hearing loss, often severe or profound, which may be ...

Contribution of GJB2 mutations and Four common DFNB loci in autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing impairment in Markazi and Qom provinces of Iran [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This study aimed to investigate the contribution of four common DFNB ("DFN" for deafness and "B" for autosomal resessive locus) loci and GJB2 gene mutations (exon 2) in hearing impairment in individuals living in Markazi and Qom provinces of Iran.

open access: yes, 2018
The autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL) can be associated with variants in solute carrier family 26, member 4 (SLC26A4) gene and is the second most common cause of ARNSHL worldwide.

The Study of SLC26A4 Gene Causing Autosomal Recessive Hearing Loss by Linkage Analysis in a Cohort of Iranian Populations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Sensorineural non-syndromic hearing loss is the most common disorder which affects 1 in 500 newborns. Hearing loss is an extremely heterogeneous defect with more than 100 loci identified to date.
