Detects sequence variants in the GJB2 gene and deletions in the GJB6 gene in patients with sensorineural non-syndromic hearing loss. Mutations in the gap junction protein beta-2 gene ('GJB2') are known to be responsible for mild to profound congenital and late-onset hearing loss. This study aimed to investigate the molecular basis of progressive hearing loss compared with non-progressive hearing loss.
