Multidimensional analysis of screening results of deafness susceptibility genes in 3066 newborns of different altitudes and nationalities in Xining, Qinghai(ISRCTN89197487).

Data analysis showed that in medium-high altitude areas, especially high-altitude regions, the detection rate of deafness mutant genes showed a decreasing trend, and some gene loci were even not detected, suggesting that the high-altitude environment may have a selective effect on deafness gene mutations.

On the contrary, the detection rate of deafness susceptibility genes in Mongolian and Hui neonates in high-altitude areas shows an increasing trend. http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100011501 Qinghai Provincial Department of Science and Technology 2023-SF-129 https://orcid.org/0009-0001-5320-1063 Wang Yi This study was supported by the Foundation of Qinghai Provincial Department of Science and Technology of China (Project No. 2023-SF-129).
