Abstract MPZL2‐related hearing loss is a rare form of autosomal recessive hearing loss characterized by progressive, mild sloping to severe sensorineural hearing loss. Thirty‐five previously reported patients had biallelic truncating variants in MPZL2, with the exception of one patient with a missense variant of uncertain significance and a truncating ...

Genetic Hearing Loss Associated With Autoinflammation
Sensorineural hearing loss can result from dysfunction of the inner ear, auditory nerve, or auditory pathways in the central nervous system. Sensorineural hearing loss can be associated with age, exposure to ototoxic drugs or noise, or mutations in ...

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

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.

Enlarged vestibular aqueduct in cochlear implant patients [PDF]
Vidgad vestibularakvedukt (EVA) är en inneröremissbildning och en vanlig orsak till ärftlig hörselnedsättning. Hörselnedsättningen är ofta av kombinerad typ och orsaken till den konduktiva komponenten antas ligga i innerörat. EVA diagnostiseras med hjälp

Stimulation from Cochlear Implant Electrodes Assists with Recovery from Asymmetric Perceptual Tilt: Evidence from the Subjective Visual Vertical Test [PDF]
Vestibular end organ impairment is highly prevalent in children who have sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) rehabilitated with cochlear implants (CIs). As a result, spatial perception is likely to be impacted in this population.

Hearing loss: A review on molecular genetics and epidemiologic aspects [PDF]
Background and aims: Hearing loss (HL) happens due to the genetic or environmental causes or both. Risk factors include congenital infections and congenital deformities of auricle and ear duct.
