Objectives/Hypothesis To perform a systematic review of GJB2‐associated hearing loss to
describe genotype distributions and auditory phenotype. Data Sources 230 primary studies …

Objective: The mutation spectrum of the GJB2 and SLC26A4 genes, the 2 most common
genes causing deafness, are known to be ethnic specific. In this study, the spectrum of the …

Hearing loss is the most common sensory deficit in humans, affecting 1 in 500 newborns.
Due to its genetic heterogeneity, comprehensive diagnostic testing has not previously been …

Understanding racial and ethnic disparities in diagnostic rates of genetic testing is critical for
health equity. We sought to understand the extent and cause of racial and ethnic disparities …

Background We analyzed the genetic causes of sensorineural hearing loss in racial and
ethnic minorities of South Florida by reviewing demographic, phenotypic, and genetic data …

Our study aimed to investigate GJB2 (connexin 26) and GJB6 (connexin 30) mutations
associated with non-syndromic childhood hearing impairment (HI) as well as the …

The Pakistani population has become an important resource for research on autosomal
recessive non‐syndromic hearing impairment (ARNSHI) due to the availability of large …

The incidence of hearing impairment (HI) is higher in low-and middle-income countries
when compared to high-income countries. There is therefore a necessity to estimate the …
