Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background: </bold>Hearing loss is the most common sensory defect, and it affects over 6% of the population worldwide. Approximately 50%-60% of hearing loss patients are attributed to genetic causes. Currently, more than 100 genes have been reported to cause non-syndromic hearing loss. It is possible and efficient to screen all potential disease-causing genes for hereditary hearin...
