Abstract excerpt
Hereditary hearing loss is highly heterogeneous. Despite over 120 non-syndromic deafness genes have been identified, there are still some of novel genes and variants being explored. In the study, we investigated 105 Chinese Han children with non-syndromic, prelingual, severe-profound hearing loss by whole-exome sequencing on DNA samples. The most common deafness gene was GJB2, mainly in variant c.235delC...
