Extractions: The Center for Hearing and Deafness Research at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center was established with the following primary objectives: The mission of Cincinnati Children's Center for Hearing and Deafness Research receives impetus from the observation that as many as one out of every 2,000 children born in the United States will demonstrate a moderate or worse hearing loss, making congenital hearing loss one of the most common birth defects in the U.S. In Ohio alone, 450 to 500 children will be born each year with such a handicapping hearing loss. Of these congenitally deaf children, approximately 50 percent will have a genetic / hereditary basis to their deafness. Therefore, the study of genes involved in hearing and deafness is crucial to our understanding and care of children with handicapping hearing loss. Contact Us

http://dspace.dial.pipex.com/brini/whtdeaf/whtdoc.htm

Extractions: Not all white cats are deaf and it has been reported that there are some populations of Whites which are less prone to deafness that others. If this is so and a risk of white deafness is hereditary, then white deafness is most likely to be influenced by polygenes. Past research has reported a high statistical correlation between blue eyes and deafness in Whites. Not all white cats have blue eyes nor are all white cats deaf, but an independant factor may give rise to both blue eyes and deafness in Whites. A common factor may mean that blue eyes could be a pointer to cats carrying a higher risk of deafness.

Extractions: HEARING LOSS is extremely common and can present at any time from infancy to old age. About one in 1000 infants has profound hearing impairment, with half thought to be of genetic origin. Many deafness genes exist, but the most common cause of hearing loss in American and European populations is a mutation in the connexin 26 ) gene. has a carrier rate of 3%, similar to that for cystic fibrosis, and it causes about 20% of childhood deafness.

Deafness And Communication
Information on communicating with people with deafness or severehearing loss; provided by VSA arts. deafness and Communication.
http://www.vsarts.org/bestpractices/dag/deafness/

Extractions: More on Deafness and Communication It is important to understand that for people who are deaf, the major issue is not their inability to hear, but the challenges they experience in communicating with hearing people . Speech develops as one imitates others and listens to the sounds they make, therefore vocal communication can be more complicated for people who have never heard speech than for those whose hearing loss developed later in life. Many persons who are deaf learn to use their voices in speech class and prefer to communicate vocally. Others choose to communicate in a variety of other ways, including sign language, speech reading (also know as lip reading), cued speech, and writing. It is important to note that sign language itself varies . American Sign Language (ASL) is the most common form of sign language in the United States. ASL is a full language with its own vocabulary, grammatical rules, and syntax that allows users to express themselves. It employs a subtle combination of hand, face, and body movements in communication. ASL is distinct from English and does not follow the word order, grammar rules, or syntax of the English language. ASL is not a universal sign language. People who are deaf from other countries may use other forms of sign language such as French sign language or Spanish sign language. Section Navigation:

El Sham - Misc3
White Cats and deafness. by Roy Robinson. St. Stephens Nursery London UK 18 May1995 Table 1 Dissociation between patch and deafness. Patched, No Patch.
http://www.dataweb.nl/~sham/misc3.html

Extractions: The completely white cat, especially the long haired, is rightly regarded as one of the most beautiful of breeds. The eye colour may be orange or blue; or even one eye orange and the other blue on occasion. These cats are healthy and fertile except for one problem, there is a propensity for impaired hearing. The genetics of the white is simple. The colour is produced by a dominant gene W which is responsible for several different features. These are: white coat, blue iris to the eyes and deafness. The white coat is invariably manifested but the blue irises and deafness are produced in only a proportion of cats. Both of the latter may be expressed either unilaterally or bilaterally. When a variety of effects are consistently produced these are termed a syndrome. It is not usual for one feature of a syndrome to be regularly expressed while the others are less regular. This is conventionally interpreted as variable expression of the syndrome. The mildly effected cat would have a white coat but normal eye colour and normal hearing. The extreme expression would be a white cat with two blue eyes and deaf in both ears. The white coat is produced by an absent of melanin pigment granules in the hairs. Consequently, the hairs are translucent and appear white to human vision. The blue iris colour is due to a deficiency of pigment granules which affect the structure of the whole eye. The impaired hearing is due to a progressive degeneration of vital organs for hearing in the inner ear.

http://www.geneclinics.org/profiles/deafness-overview/details.html

Extractions: 24 April 2001 Disease characteristics. Several hundred genes are known to cause hereditary hearing loss and deafness. The hearing loss may be conductive, sensorineural, or mixed; syndromic or nonsyndromic; and prelingual (before language develops) or postlingual (after language develops). Diagnosis/testing. Genetic forms of hearing loss must be carefully distinguished from acquired (non-genetic) causes of hearing loss. The genetic forms of hearing loss are diagnosed by otologic, audiologic, and physical examination, family history, ancillary testing (such as CT examination of the temporal bone), and DNA-based testing. DNA-based genetic tests are available for the diagnosis of branchiootorenal (BOR) syndrome ( gene), Pendred syndrome ( PDS gene), dilated vestibular aqueduct syndrome ( PDS gene), DFNB1 ( gene), DFNA3 (
