Abstract

The carrier rates of deafness-related gene mutations in South China were determined. Additionally, certain high-risk neonates developed HL and benefited from follow-up and intervention. Genetic screening can improve early diagnosis and facilitate identification of late-onset cases, resulting in timely clinical recommendations.
