Abstract The use of expanded carrier screening (ECS) to assess reproductive risk for autosomal recessive (AR) or X‐linked recessive (XLR) conditions has been increasingly integrated into obstetrical care. The aim of this study was to determine what proportion of pediatric patients seen by a medical genetics practice could have had their diagnosis ...

Genetic Screening of GJB2 and SLC26A4 in Korean Cochlear Implantees: Experience of Soree Ear Clinic [PDF]
ObjectivesGenetic hearing loss is highly heterogeneous and more than 100 genes are predicted to cause this disorder in humans. In spite of this large genetic heterogeneity, mutations in SLC26A4 and GJB2 genes are primarily responsible for the major ...

High prevalence of syndromic hearing loss in Mexican children undergoing cochlear implantation
Diagnostic yield for Hispanic and Latino with severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss undergoing comprehensive genomic testing. Abstract Objective Studies evaluating genetic sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) in Hispanic and Latino populations using genomic technologies are lacking.

Mutation analysis of GJB2 and GJB6 genes and the genetic linkage analysis of five common DFNB loci in the Iranian families with autosomal recessive non-syndrom [PDF]
The incidence of pre-lingual hearing loss (HL) is about 1 in 1000 neonates. More than 60% of cases are inherited. Non-syndromic HL (NSHL) is extremely heterogeneous: more than 130 loci have been identified so far.

Autosomal recessive non‐syndromic hearing loss genes in Pakistan during the previous three decades
Abstract Hearing loss is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disorder, with over 148 genes and 170 loci associated with its pathogenesis. The spectrum and frequency of causal variants vary across different genetic ancestries and are more prevalent in populations that practice consanguineous marriages.

Haplotype Analysis of Seven Non-Syndromeic Autosomal Recessive Hearing Loss Loci in Iranian Families
Objective: Hearing impairment is the most frequent sensorineural defect in 2 forms, syndromic and non–syndromic. The aim of this study is haplotype analysis of seven loci of non–syndromic autosomal recessive hearing loss in Iranian families. Materials &
