Genome-Wide Association Study in Vestibular Neuritis: Involvement of the Host Factor for HSV-1 Replication

Abstract excerpt

Objective: In order to identify genetic variants associated with vestibular neuritis, a common cause of peripheral vertigo with a potential causative link to the reactivation of herpes simplex type 1 (HSV-1), we conducted a genome-wide association study. Methods: Association was assessed using app. 8 million variants. 131 patients with vestibular neuritis and 2609 controls of European ancestry were included....
