Abstract excerpt
Despite nearly 20% of the global population experiencing hearing loss, there remains limited insight into the underlying subtypes of its most prevalent cause, sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). This understanding is crucial for effective therapeutic and preventative strategies. A recent study using a Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) identified 10 distinct SNHL phenotypes in a large US cohort, highlighting the...
