Abstract:
AbstractHearing loss is a highly prevalent chronic condition. In addition to age, sex, noise exposure, and genetic predisposition, cardiovascular disease and its antecedents may precipitate hearing loss. Of emerging interest is the connection between diabetes and auditory dysfunction. Cross-sectional studies consistently suggest that prevalence of hearing loss is higher in persons with diabetes compared with those without diabetes, especially among younger persons. Furthermore, longitudinal studies have demonstrated higher incidence of hearing loss in persons with diabetes compared to those wi

Abstract:
Sensorineural hearing loss is a disorder associated with the damage to the inner ear structures: the cochlea (cortical organ), dysfunctioning of the vestibule-cochlear nerve or the central part of the auditory analyser (brain stem and cortical representation of the cortical temporal lobe). In recent years, there has been a steady increase in ensorineural hearing loss patients; they account for ca. 70% among the total patients with impaired hearing. The disease has numerous causes and a complex pathogenesis. Among the main factors contributing to hearing loss are genetic predisposition, perinat

AbstractMeniere's disease (MD) is a set of uncommon disorders with core phenotype of tinnitus, episodic vertigo, and sensorineural hearing loss. MD shows a genetic predisposition and a family history is found in 10% cases, with an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. It is a multifactorial condition whose onset and development are triggered by the combined effect of genetic and environmental factors. Histopathological studies have associated MD with the accumulation of endolymph in the cochlea and the vestibular organs. However, endolymphatic hydrops does not fully explain the persistence o

Hearing impairment is the most frequent sensory deficit in humans of all age groups, from children (1/500) to the elderly (more than 50% of the over-75 s). Over 50% of congenital deafness are hereditary in nature. The other major causes of deafness, which also may have genetic predisposition, are aging, acoustic trauma, ototoxic drugs such as aminoglycosides, and noise exposure. Over the last two decades, the study of inherited deafness forms and related animal models has been instrumental in deciphering the molecular, cellular, and physiological mechanisms of disease.

Introduction Inherited thrombocytopenias (IT) are a heterogeneous group of 33 different forms of monogenic disorders caused by molecular defects affecting 40 genes at least. The pathogenic germline variants play an important role in the development and maintenance of hematopoietic system (megakaryopoesis and thrombopoesis). These changes lead to disruption of these processes and are presented as the thrombocytopenia phenotype (low platelet count, blood-examination).

BACKGROUND: Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) is a rare genetic condition caused by mutations in the Merlin gene on chromosome 22. It results in acoustic neuromas (schwannomas) and other CNS tumors including meningiomas and ependymomas. Most patients develop hearing loss as a result of neuroma-driven destruction of auditory nerves. Surgery and radiation therapy remain the two most commonly recommended treatment options. However, there is a risk of further hearing loss with these procedures. There is emerging evidence that bevacizumab, a monoclonal antibody against VEGF-A, can shrink acoustic neur

Abstract:
Sensorineural hearing loss is mainly acquired and affects an estimated 1.3 billion humans worldwide. It is related to aging, noise, infection, ototoxic drugs, and genetic defects. It is essential to identify reversible and preventable causes to be able to reduce the burden of this disease. Inflammation is involved in most causes and leads to tissue injury through vasospasm-associated ischemia. Vasospasm is reversible. This review summarized evidence linking inflammation-induced vasospasm to several forms of acquired sensorineural hearing loss. The link between vasospasm and sensorineural heari

Abstract:
Hearing impairment is one of the most common sensory disease, of which more than 50% is attributed to a genetic etiology. The goal of this research is to explore the genetic cause of a Chinese deafness pedigree who was excluded of GJB2, SLC26A4, or MtDNA12SrRNA variants. Three variants, c.3971C>A (p.A1324D), c.4011insA (p.Q1337Qfs∗22), and c.9690+1G>A, in the MYO15A gene were identified by targeted capture sequencing and Sanger sequencing, and the first two of them were novel. These variants were cosegregated with the disease in this family and absent in 200 normal hearing persons. They

Abstract Background: Inherited Platelet Disorders (IPD) are individually rare disorders that have many different molecular causes. Diagnosis of IPD is often complicated by the need for complex testing that is not readily available at many centers and the lack of available testing to define the molecular cause of some disorders. While some platelet disorders are sufficiently defined by functional characterization, recent data suggests that some platelet disorders may predispose to significant other complications including cancer predisposition, myelofibrosis or hearing loss.

Abstract Introduction Hearing loss may lead to depression, decreased quality of life, reduced functional status and social isolation. The glutathione-S transferase (GSTS) is an antioxidant scavenging enzyme. Decreased glutathione and GSTS activity levels lead to an increase in susceptibility of hair-cell damage leading to sensorineural hearing loss. The cumulative effect of oxidative stress and mitochondrial damage by free radicals results in the mutation/deletion of deoxyribonucleic acid, leading to decline in mitochondrial function, which in turn plays an important role in inducing apoptosis

Antiviral therapy improves hearing outcomes, but its effect on the occurrence of late-onset SNHL is not fully known. Thus, our objective was to describe the prevalence of late-onset SNHL among congenital CMV-infected children treated with antiviral therapy in the first month of age.
