There was no significant difference in hearing thresholds between those with and without the mutation. Single-nucleotide polymorphism analysis indicated that the mutation has arisen on a number of different mitochondrial haplogroups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Limitations<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>No data were collected on aminoglycoside exposure.

Unbiased ascertainment of mutation carriers provides no evidence that this mutation alone causes non-syndromic hearing impairment in the UK. The findings lend weight to arguments for genetic testing for this mutation prior to aminoglycoside administration, as hearing in susceptible individuals is expected to be preserved well into adult life. Since global use of aminoglycosides is likely to increase, development of a rapid test is a priority.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjopen-2011-000411","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,1,6]],"date-time":"2012-01-06T06:10:06Z","timestamp":1325830206000},"page":"e000411","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":44,"title":["Hearing in 44\u201345 year olds with m.1555A&gt;G, a genetic mutation predisposing to aminoglycoside-induced deafness: a population based cohort study"],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"2","author":[{"given":"Shamima","family":"Rahman","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Russell","family":"Ecob","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Harry","family":"Costello","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mary G","family":"Sweeney","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andrew J","family":"Duncan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kerra","family":"Pearce","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David","family":"Strachan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andrew","family":"Forge","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Adrian","family":"Davis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maria","family":"Bitner-Glindzicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"239","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,1,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMc0806396"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/nar\/21.18.4174"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/ng0793-289"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/301676"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/506389"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMc0806397"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0378-5955(94)90040-X"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.0707265105"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000013861"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/GIM.0b013e318156dd07"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/14992020701647942"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jmg.37.1.38"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00439-005-1276-1"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/hmg\/9.12.1787"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/hmg\/10.6.573"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1006\/bbrc.1996.0923"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005537-199704000-00011"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.18","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"7013","DOI":"10.1523\/JNEUROSCI.21-18-07013.2001","article-title":"FM1\u201343 dye behaves as a permeant blocker of the hair-cell mechanotransducer channel","volume":"21","author":"Gale","year":"2001","journal-title":"J Neurosci"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1113\/jphysiol.2005.085951"},{"key":"2025121410561922000_2.1.e000411.20","unstructured":"World Health Organization.
