Powerful use of automated prioritization of candidate variants in genetic hearing loss with extreme etiologic heterogeneity
Abstract Variant prioritization of exome sequencing (ES) data for molecular diagnosis of sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) with extreme etiologic heterogeneity poses a significant challenge. This study used an automated variant prioritization system (“EVIDENCE”) to analyze SNHL patient data and asse...
