Abstract excerpt
Hearing loss (HL) is the most prevalent sensorineural disorders, affecting about one in 1000 newborns. Over half of the cases are attributed to genetic factors; however, due to the extensive clinical and genetic heterogeneity, many cases remain without a conclusive genetic diagnosis. The advent of next-generation sequencing methodologies in recent years has greatly helped unravel the genetic etiology of HL by...
