Exome Sequencing Identifies Novel Variants Causing Hearing Loss in Three Consanguineous Pakistani Families: Insights From Genomics and Bioinformatics Analyses.
BACKGROUND Hearing impairment is a genetically heterogeneous disorder and represents a significant health concern, particularly in consanguineous populations where autosomal recessive forms are more prevalent. Pakistani families provide an important population for investigating the genetic basis of hereditary hearing i...
