In addition, chromosome microarray analysis to determine the chromosome copy number was completed for all participants. Overall, 113 subjects had clinical and audiological data to be reported here.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Sixty\u2010six percent of this population had aural stenosis or atresia. No subject had microtia. In the 53 individuals for whom serial data was available, enlargement of ear canal diameter was seen in 48% of ears with stenosis, examined over time. Abnormalities of the palate were seen in nearly 18% of patients and included complete or incomplete clefts of the palate, submucous clefts, and velopharyngeal insufficiency. A conductive hearing impairment was identified in 112 ears (49.5%), and sensorineural hearing loss was identified in 28%. Eustachian tube dysfunction was common and found in 78% of ears examined.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The otologic phenotype varies widely among individuals with distal 18q\u2010. External auditory canal stenosis without microtia is a hallmark of the disease. Hearing impairment is also very common, with both sensorineural losses and conductive losses contributing to morbidity. Moreover, the critical region for sensorineural hearing loss will aid in the identification of the gene responsible for this aspect of the distal 18q\u2010 phenotype.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Level of Evidence<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      4.\n                      <jats:italic>Laryngoscope<\/jats:italic>\n                      , 124:2606\u20132609, 2014\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.24769","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,6,10]],"date-time":"2014-06-10T05:41:48Z","timestamp":1402378908000},"page":"2606-2609","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Otologic characteristics of individuals with deletions of distal 18q"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"124","author":[{"given":"Brian P.","family":"Perry","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Ear Medical Group San Antonio"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jannine D.","family":"Cody","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatrics University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio San Antonio"},{"name":"The Chromosome 18 Registry &amp; Research Society San Antonio Texas U.S.A"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,6,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/(SICI)1096-8628(19970331)69:3<280::AID-AJMG12>3.0.CO;2-N"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajmg.a.32900"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_1","first-page":"895","article-title":"Molecular analysis of the 18q\u2010 syndrome\u2014and correlation with phenotype","volume":"52","author":"Kline AD","year":"1993","journal-title":"Am J Med Genet A"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/000348948609500512"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajmg.a.32899"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajhg.2011.11.008"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1258\/0022215001904473"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1288\/00005537-198909000-00004"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1288\/00005537-198504000-00010"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_1","first-page":"6","article-title":"Grading system for the selection of patients with congenital aural atresia","volume":"13","author":"Jahrsdoerfer RA","year":"1998","journal-title":"Am J Otol"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1288\/00005537-199006000-00004"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_1","first-page":"i","article-title":"External ear malformations: epidemiology, genetics, and natural history","volume":"15","author":"Melnick M","year":"1979","journal-title":"Birth Defects Orig Artic Ser"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ajmg.1320590223"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ydbio.2007.05.038"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_16_1","first-page":"579","article-title":"Partial deletion of the long arms of the chromosome 18","volume":"12","author":"Grouchy J","year":"1964","journal-title":"Pathol Biol (Paris)"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(66)91964-7"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MAO.0000000000000363"}],"container-title":["The Laryngoscope"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1002%2Flary.24769","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/lary.24769","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1002\/lary.24769","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/lary.24769","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,20]],"date-time":"2023-08-20T20:21:21Z","timestamp":1692562881000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/lary.24769"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2014,6,10]]},"references-count":17,"journal-issue":{"issue":"11","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2014,11]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/lary.24769"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/lary.24769","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0023-852X","1531-4995"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0023-852X","type":"print"},{"value":"1531-4995","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2014,6,10]]}}}
