Abstract:Introduction/Objective. Hearing impairment (HI) is the most common
sensorineural disorder with an incidence of 1/700-1000 newborns. Variants in
the GJB2 gene are the major cause of autosomal recessive nonsyndromic
sensorineural hearing loss (ARNSHL). The degree of HI in patients with
detected mutations in GJB2 gene ranges from mild to profound. The aim of
this study was to determine possible genotype-phenotype association between
audiometric characteristics and detected genotypes in ARNSHL p… Show more
