http://www.nichcy.org/pubs/factshe/fs3txt.htm

Extractions: PDF version The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), formerly the Education of the Handicapped Act (P.L. 94-142), includes "hearing impairment" and "deafness" as two of the categories under which children with disabilities may be eligible for special education and related services programming. While the term "hearing impairment" is often used generically to describe a wide range of hearing losses, including deafness, the regulations for IDEA define hearing loss and deafness separately. Hearing impairment is defined by IDEA as "an impairment in hearing, whether permanent or fluctuating, that adversely affects a child's educational performance." Deafness is defined as "a hearing impairment that is so severe that the child is impaired in processing linguistic information through hearing, with or without amplification."

http://davinci.crg.es/deafness/

Extractions: Connexins and deafness A large number of subjects are affected by hearing impairment. In developed countries deafness has an important genetic origin and at least 60% of the cases are inherited. The pattern of inheritance can be dominant, recessive, X-linked and mitochondrial. Many genes are involved in the different types of deafness (syndromic and non-syndromic). Non-syndromic hereditary deafness is mainly (80%) due to recessive genes (or mutations). It is believed that more than one hundred genes could be involved in hearing impairment. Several of these genes have been identified recently by positional cloning or positional candidate gene approaches. Despite the fact that more than 20 loci have been described for non-syndromic autosomal recessive deafness (DFNB), a single locus, DFNB1, accounts for a high proportion of the cases, with variability depending on the population. The gene involved in this type of deafness is GJB2, which encodes the gap junction protein connexin 26(Cx26). NEW Recent data indicates that DFNB1 can also be due to a deletion of 342Kb involving GJB6, a gene that is very close to GJB2. This deletion has been reported to cause deafness both in the homozygous status and in heterozygosity with a GJB2 point mutation in trans (see big deletions affecting connexin genes...).

Pendred Syndrome - Genetics Home Reference
A genetic condition associated with deafness and goiter.
http://ghr.nlm.nih.gov/condition=pendredsyndrome

Extractions: Home What's New Browse Handbook ... Search Pendred syndrome On this page: Pendred syndrome is a genetic condition typically associated with hearing loss and goiter, which is an enlargement of the thyroid gland (a butterfly-shaped organ at the base of the neck that produces hormones). Hearing loss is often evident at birth, but in some cases it does not develop until later in infancy or early childhood. Abnormalities of bones in the inner ear are also common in Pendred syndrome. If a goiter develops, it usually forms sometime after the onset of hearing loss, during late childhood, adolescence, or adulthood. How common is Pendred syndrome?

Brain Briefings Deafness Genes

http://apu.sfn.org/content/Publications/BrainBriefings/deafness.html

Extractions: Full size image available below Deafness Genes Hearing is one of the basic elements of human communication, yet millions of Americans are hearing impaired. Currently only a few strategies for overcoming the deficiency exist. For example, some people with a moderate case can overcome the impairment with hearing aids, which amplify sounds. Others bypass the communication setback with sign language. Researchers now hope that new findings on the genetic component of deafness will help expand treatment options. Painstaking analysis has led to the recent discovery of a large number of mutated genes that are involved in causing deafness in humans. An understanding of how these genes operate is helping researchers devise biological strategies to protect or restore human hearing. Nag. Nag. Nag. You shut the door to block out the rantings from the other room. Ahhh. Peace.
