Genome-wide association study meta-analysis brings monogenic hearing loss genes into the polygenic realm
2025-03-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Disabling age-related and noise-induced sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) affects 5% of the global population and is associated with isolation, depression, cognitive decline, and dementia. SNHL is strongly heritable with a polygenic signature of common genetic variants conferring small risks individually, thus requiring very large studies to achieve statistical power in genome-wide association...
