1. Frequency of GJB2 mutations in patients with nonsyndromic hearing loss from an ethnically characterized Brazilian population
Resumo Introdução: Em diferentes partes do mundo, mutações do gene GJB2 estão associadas a perda auditiva não sindrômica e a mutação homozigótica 35delG (p.Gly12Valfs*2) é uma das principais causas de perda auditiva hereditária. No entanto, a mutação 35delG não é igualmente prevalente em todas as etnias, faz com que seja importante estudar o

2. c.G2114A MYH9 mutation (DFNA17) causes non-syndromic autosomal dominant hearing loss in a Brazilian family
We studied a family presenting 10 individuals affected by autosomal dominant deafness in all frequencies and three individuals affected by high frequency hearing loss. Genomic scanning using the 50k Affymetrix microarray technology yielded a Lod Score of 2.1 in chromosome 14 and a Lod Score of 1.9 in chromosome 22. Mapping refinement using microsatellites pl

3. Rehabilitation with Cochlear Implant in Patient with Harboyan Syndrome
Background Harboyan syndrome, defined as congenital corneal dystrophy associated with progressive sensorineural hearing loss, was first described by Harboyan in 1971. It is a hereditary disease manifested by eye lesions consistent with corneal endothelial dystrophy and progressive sensorineural hearing loss. There is bilateral symmetric progressive heari

4. Head and neck paragangliomas: clinical and molecular genetic classification
Head and neck paragangliomas are tumors arising from specialized neural crest cells. Prominent locations are the carotid body along with the vagal, jugular, and tympanic glomus. Head and neck paragangliomas are slowly growing tumors, with some carotid body tumors being reported to exist for many years as a painless lateral mass on the neck. Symptoms depend o

5. A conexina 26 e sua relação com outras proteínas no órgão de Corti / The connexin 26 and its relationship with other proteins from the organ of Corti
A causa mais frequente de surdez de herança autossômica recessiva são as mutações no lócus DFNB1, onde estão os genes GJB2 e GJB6. Dentre os indivíduos com deficiência auditiva associada a esse lócus, 10% a 50% apresentam uma única mutação recessiva no gene GJB2, frequência muito superior à esperada em função da frequência de heterozigotos

6. Alport syndrome: significance of gingival biopsy in the initial diagnosis and periodontal evaluation after renal transplantation
Alport Syndrome (AS) is an important hereditary disorder affecting the glomerular basement membrane. Diagnosis of AS is based on the presence of hematuric nephropathy, renal failure, hearing loss, ocular abnormalities and changes in the glomerular basement membrane of the lamina densa. The aims of this case report were to show the changes in the gingival tis

7. Development of digital behind-the-ear hearing aid with minimal specifications / Desenvolvimento de prótese auditiva retroauricular, digital e de especificações mínimas
The International Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (IFOS) estimates as 10% the total amount of hearing impaired in United States. The Better Hearing Institute asserts that in United States about 31 million people have hearing losses in some degree, say around 10% of total population. Increasing the amount of hearing-impaired there is a list o

8. Study of modulators genes associated to mutations in mitochondrial genes in individuals with non-syndromic deafness / Estudos de genes moduladores associados a mutações em genes mitocondriais em individuos com surdez não-sindromica
Hearing loss is the most prevalent sensorial deficit in the general population. Congenital deafness occurs in about 1 in 1000 live births, of which approximately 50% has hereditary cause in development countries. Non-syndromic deafness can be caused by mutations in both nuclear and mitochondrial genes. Mutations in mtDNA have been associated with aminoglycos

9. Perda auditiva genética
O progresso das pesquisas relacionadas à perda auditiva genética tem provocado um importante avanço do entendimento dos mecanismos moleculares que governam o desenvolvimento, a função, a resposta ao trauma e o envelhecimento do ouvido interno. Em países desenvolvidos, mais de 50% dos casos de surdez na infância é causada por alterações genéticas e

11. Hereditary distal muscular atrophy with vocal cord paralysis and sensorineural hearing loss: a dominant form of spinal muscular atrophy?
In 1980 Young and Harper described a family with an unusual form of distal spinal muscular atrophy associated with vocal cord paralysis. We report a family with three similarly affected subjects. Progressive sensorineural hearing loss was an additional feature in our patients. Electrophysiological and histological investigations did not exclude an involvemen

12. Mitochondrial mutation commonly associated with Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy observed in a patient with Wolfram syndrome (DIDMOAD).
DIDMOAD is usually considered an autosomal recessive condition, with wide phenotypic variation, but the possibility of mitochondrial mutations occurring in this condition has been considered. A 19 year old man presented with long standing diabetes mellitus, optic atrophy, and grand mal seizures. Further investigations showed unilateral sensorineural hearing
