- Sensorineural hearing loss and male infertility (Deafness-Infertility Syndrome; DIS) is a contiguous gene deletion syndrome resulting from homozygous deletion of the CATSPER2 and STRC genes on chromosome 15q15.3. Females with DIS have only hearing loss and are fertile.

- Deafness and Hearing Loss: Causes, Symptoms and Treatments. Hearing impairment, deafness, or hearing loss refers to the inability to hear things, either totally or partially. Symptoms may be mild, moderate, severe or profound. A patient with mild hearing impairment may have problems understanding speech, especially if there is a lot of noise around, while those with moderate deafness may need a hearing aid.

Alone we are rare. Together we are strong.â¥ Donate Today General Discussion. Susac's syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by three main problems: impaired brain function (encephalopathy), partial or complete blockage (occlusion) of the arteries that supply blood to the retina (branch retinal artery occlusion, or BRAO), and inner ear disease (hearing loss, most notably).

Syndromic and Non-syndromic as Types of Hereditary Deafness The nonsyndromic type of hereditary deafness is further classified into dominant and recessive subtypes. Only about 20% of nonsyndromic cases are dominant. The case is dominant when one of the parents carries the gene that caused hearing impairment.f deafness is due to problem in the inner ear, then it is called sensorineural hearing loss. Hearing impairment can also be classified according to when it happened. If the deafness in children happened before the development of language skills, then it is called prelingual deafness.

Usher syndrome Usher syndrome is a relatively rare genetic disorder caused by a mutation in any one of at least 11 genes resulting in a combination of hearing loss and visual impairment, and is a leading cause of deafblindness. Usher syndrome is incurable at present.

Deafness and Hearing Impairment The term is however, often used to describe people who have experienced varying degrees of hearing loss after the acquisition of speech. Deaf Australia describes hearing impairment (HI) as: “… a full or partial decrease in the ability to understand sounds.

Causes of deafness Causes before birth (pre-natal causes) Many children are born deaf because of a genetic reason. Deafness can be passed down in families even though there appears to be no family history of deafness. Sometimes the gene involved may cause additional disabilities or health problems. Deafness can also be caused by complications during pregnancy.

- Decompression sickness (DCS, also called the bends or caisson disease) is the result of inadequate decompression following exposure to increased pressure. In some cases, the disease is mild and not an immediate threat.he reason is that the risk factors, both known and unknown, can influence the probability of DCI in myriad ways. Because of this, evaluation of a diver for possible decompression illness must be made on a case-by-case basis by evaluating the diver&#39s signs and symptoms and not just based on the dive profile.

Stickler syndrome Another sign of Stickler syndrome is mild to severe hearing loss that, for some people, may be progressive (see hearing loss with craniofacial syndromes). The joints of affected children and young adults may be very flexible (hypermobile).

- Deafness as a Culture. Deafness is more than a medical condition. They belong to a community—a culture. In this sense, deafness is unique among disability types. The sense of culture is strongest among those for whom sign language is their primary language.

- Because of frustrations in communication and the invisible nature of the disability, deafness is not regarded as tolerantly as is loss of sight. Access to services by deaf people can be seriously curtailed. Many deaf people avoid medical appointments or do not understand what their general practitioner says.

What percentage of people in the world are tone deaf ? Tone deafness is the lack of relative pitch, or the inability to discriminate between musical notes. Being tone deaf is the difficulty or being unable to correctly hear relative differences between notes that is not due to the lack of musical training or education.

Hearing Impairments Thus, knowing the definition of deafness is necessary to understand what sort of disabilities are considered hearing impairments. A hearing loss above 90 decibels is generally considered deafness, which means that a hearing loss below 90 decibels is classified as a hearing impairment.

Waardenburg Syndrome â Pictures, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment Epidemiology of Waardenburg Syndrome (WS) Waardenburg syndrome affects both males and females of all races. Since this is an autosomal dominant condition, a parent possessing the WS gene will pass on the condition to the child 50% of the time. it is estimated that this syndrome affects 1 out of 42,000 births, with 2-62% of them presenting deafness.

Sensorineural hearing loss Sensorineural hearing loss. Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is a type of hearing loss, or deafness, in which the root cause lies in the inner ear or sensory organ (cochlea and associated structures) or the vestibulocochlear nerve (cranial nerve VIII) or neural part. SNHL accounts for about 90% of hearing loss reported.

- The most common causes of hearing loss are: childhood illness, pregnancy-related illness, injury, excessive or prolonged exposure to noise, heredity, and aging. Whether or not a person would be a Deaf culture member depends on the severity of the hearing loss and on the time of life in which the loss occurred.efore doing so, we need to explore the nature of the Deaf culture to create a meaningful context for interpreting the focus group data. To this end, the paper examines the nature of deafness, membersh ip requirements of the Deaf culture, and some of their communication patterns and concerns.

Pendred Syndrome Pendred Syndrome. Mutations in the SLC26A4 gene have been associated with two autosomal recessive disorders, Pendred syndrome and DFNB4 non-syndromic hearing loss. Pendred syndrome is the most common form of syndromic deafness, accounting for approximately 5-10% of hereditary hearing loss.

Deafness and Hearing Loss Research Hearing loss can be mild, moderate, severe, or profound. People with mild hearing loss may find it hard to follow speech, particularly in noisy situations. Those with moderate deafness have difficulty following speech without a hearing aid. The severely deaf rely primarily on lip-reading, even with a hearing aid.
