The paper investigates the contribution of short tandem repeats (STRs) to age-related hearing loss phenotypes, finding they explain some missing heritability and identify risk associations.

The paper identifies distinct cochlear cell types associated with genetic susceptibility to sensory and metabolic hearing loss in older adults using integrated human and mouse data.

This study identifies distinct genes and pathways for sensory and metabolic hearing loss using large-scale audiometric phenotyping and sex-stratified analyses.

The paper examines cerebral asymmetries using deformation-based methods, showing that tuning parameters improves the precision of asymmetry measurements in specific brain regions.

The paper shows that reading disability profiles can be reliably identified from incomplete behavioral data using Random Forest classification after multiple imputation with missForest.

This paper introduces new metrics to assess auditory nerve function using compound action potentials, revealing differences in neural synchrony and fiber recruitment in individuals with normal hearing but varying noise exposure histories.
