Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: This study was designed to delineate genetic contributions, if any, to sporadic forms of mild to moderate sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) not related to GJB2 mutations (DFNB1) in a pediatric population. METHODS: We recruited 11 non-DFNB1 simplex cases of mild to moderate SNHL in children. We applied whole-exome sequencing to all 11 probands. We used a filtering strategy assuming that de novo variants...
