The incidence of auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder was assessed based on auditory brainstem response testing, and the incidence of cochlear nerve deficiency was determined from imaging review by a neurotologist.

The incidence of auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder in this population was 30% (31 subjects).

Of the abnormal cochlear nerves, 18 nerves were aplastic and 6 hypoplastic.
