Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX-1) gene, rs3448, rs1050450, rs1800668, and rs1987628, and the susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) among Chinese Han population. METHODS: A case-control study was conducted to investigate the threshold shift of the left ear at 3000 Hz among the workers of Chinese Han population...
