Book Synopsis Genetic Hearing Loss by : Patrick J. Willems

Download or read book Genetic Hearing Loss written by Patrick J. Willems and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2003-10-17 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heredity, either alone or in combination with environmental factors, is the most prominent underlying cause of hearing impairment. Thanks in large part to positional cloning techniques, scientists have identified nearly 100 gene loci implicated in hearing loss since 1995-an extraordinarily rapid rate of gene identification. Genetic Hearing Loss branches into syndromic and nonsyndromic categorical directions in its coverage of the genetics behind hearing loss. Authored by 60 internationally recognized researchers, the book describes the normal development of the ear, updates the classification and epidemiology of hearing loss, and surveys the usage of audiometric tests and diagnostic medical examinations.
