Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Hereditary sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is a genetically heterogeneous disorder worldwide. Mutations in the GJB2 gene are a frequent cause of hereditary SNHL. There is a prevalence of certain mutations in various populations which suggests that specific mutations may be influenced by ethnic background. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the prevalence of GJB2, GJB6 mutations in several geographic areas of...
