Almost everyone has provided a blood sample at a certain point of life, but ever wondered why so many tubes? How Blood Samples Are Taken Using current analytical technologies, several health indicators/analytes can only be obtained from blood and therefore giving a blood sample is…
READ MOREDe Novo SIX1 Variant and Nonsyndromic Cochleovestibular Nerve Abnormality
Abstract Background: Childhood hearing impairment affects language and cognitive development. Profound congenital sensorineural hearing impairment can be due to an abnormal cochleovestibular nerve (CVN) and cochleovestibular malformations, however, the etiology of these conditions remains unclear. Methods: We used a trio‐based exome sequencing approach to unravel…
