Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genetics of Deafness offers a journey through areas crucial for understanding the causes and effects of hearing loss. It covers such topics as the latest approaches in diagnostics and deafness research and the current status and future promise of gene therapy for hearing restoration. The book begins by bringing attention to how hearing loss affects the individual and society. Methods of hearing loss detection and management throughout the lifespan are highlighted as is a particularly new development in newborn hearing screening. The challenges of hearing loss, an extremely heterogeneous impairment, are addressed. Additional topics include current research interests, ranging from novel gene identification to their functional validation in the mouse and zebrafish. The book ends with a chapter on the state of the art of gene therapy—an area that is certain to gain increasing attention as molecular mechanisms of deafness are better understood. Genetics of Deafness, written by leading authors in the field, is a must read for clinicians, researchers, and students. It provides much needed insight into the diagnosis and research of hereditary hearing loss.

Download or read book Hereditary Hearing Loss and Its Syndromes written by Helga V. Toriello and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-06-20 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the third edition of the foremost medical reference on hereditary hearing loss. Chapters on epidemiology, embryology, non-syndromic hearing loss, and syndromic forms of hearing loss have all been updated with particular attention to the vast amount of new information on molecular mechanisms, and chapters on clinical and molecular diagnosis and on genetic susceptibility to ototoxic factors have been added. As in previous editions, the syndromes are grouped by system (visual, metabolic, cardiologic, neurologic, musculoskeletal, endocrine, etc.), with each chapter written by a recognized expert in the field. Written for practicing clinicians, this volume is an excellent reference for physicians, audiologists, and other professionals working with individuals with hearing loss and their families, and can also serve as a text for clinical training programs and for researchers in the hearing sciences.

Download or read book The Effects of Genetic Hearing Impairment in the Family written by Dafydd Stephens and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2006-10-02 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been an explosion of studies in the field of genetic hearing impairment in the past decade, associated with major advances in our understanding of the mechanisms and conditions involved. However, a recent review has highlighted the very limited number of studies on the effects of such hearing impairment on the individuals and families of those concerned. In The Effects of Genetic Hearing Impairment in the Family, under the aegis of the European Union GENDEAF programme, the editors have taken the first steps to address this deficit in our knowledge and understanding of this topic. The book addresses the problem by secondary analyses of existing large scale population studies, by prospective investigation of individuals with a family history of hearing impairment and by specific studies on patients with otosclerosis and neurofibromatosis 2 and their families. In addition several chapters look at the specific impact of deaf culture, ethnicity and religion on reactions to deafness and the specific needs in genetic counselling. This book represents an important first step in this field and should be an invaluable resource for all professionals involved with people with hearing impairments.

This book was released on 2001-04-11 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together many of the main conclusions of the European Concerted Action Programme on Genetic Hearing Impairment (HEAR). It is spilt into four sections, covering definitions, protocols, genotype/phenotype relationships and important websites.The section on definitions enables all those approaching the problems of Genetic Hearing Impairment from different backgrounds to communicate in the same language and understand what each is doing more clearly. The definitions are of Audiological, Vestibulogical, Epidemiological and Genetic terms, together with specific terms associated with particular craniofacial abnormalities. The second section comprises protocols for the minimal set investigation of patients and their family members with genetic hearing impairment. Relatively little work has been done in the past on the balance of disorders which may be associated with Genetic Hearing Impairment and a protocol aiming to elucidate some of these factors in a relevant way has been defined. The final chapter in this section deals with how audiologists should relate to genetic laboratories in an attempt to reduce the confusion which has risen in this field in the past. The third section is concerned with the relationship between genotypes and phenotypes in non-syndromal hearing impairment in the conditions in which the genes have so far been localised and in many cases identified. The final section deals with the important websites within this field. The most important and the most visited is the Hereditary Hearing Loss website based on Antwerp and managed by Guy Van Camp and Richard Smith.

Book excerpt: In 'Fast Facts: Early Hearing' Detection and Intervention an international team of contributors brings together the evidence that supports the effectiveness of universal newborn hearing screening (UNHS) and early hearing detection and intervention services (EHDI). As well as considering elements essential to successful UNHS/EHDI programs, including screening technologies, resources, data management and family-centered early intervention services, the team discusses the resources needed to deliver such programs as well as the performance of screening programs globally. The aim is to provide a comprehensive compendium of information to make the case for greater recognition of the importance of UNHS/EHDI and so improve the life chances of children who are diagnosed as deaf or hard of hearing. Table of Contents: • Newborn hearing screening and EHDI • Rationale for UNHS/EHDI programs • Prevalence of newborn hearing loss and performance of screening programs • Global status of newborn and infant hearing screening • Genetic and CMV testing • Medical evaluation and management of permanent childhood hearing loss • Middle ear effusion and other barriers to timely diagnosis • Data management systems for newborn hearing screening programs • Establishing UNHS/EHDI programs • Pediatric diagnostic audiology • Amplification device fitting • Family-centered early intervention • Unilateral hearing loss and auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder
