Auditory Neuropathy

Assembled from catalogue records November 6, 2026

Auditory Neuropathy, as genome-wide studies have reported it: 29 positions from 1 study. Built from the GWAS Catalog's records and rebuilt when a new position is reported; the figures are the studies'.

What this condition connects to

Prevalence
The records give study sizes, not how common Auditory Neuropathy is, so this page gives no figure for it.
Inheritance
Polygenic in the records: 29 positions at genome-wide significance across 1 study, each common variant of small effect. Nothing here says how much of the condition is inherited.

Auditory Neuropathy — filed in the GWAS Catalog as "Auditory neuropathy" — is a condition this catalogue follows as its positions arrive. This page is assembled by MyGeneLog's own code from the catalogue's records and the studies' own listings: 29 positions from 1 study, and no sentence written by hand. It is rebuilt as new positions are reported, so what it says is what the records say today.

The studies, one by one

A study. The 29 positions on this page from it: rs1207567940 (OTOF), rs1320406513 (OTOF), rs1328784046 (NOTCH3), rs1392028993 (TRPV4), rs1665126718 (OTOF), rs1665242283 (OTOF), rs1665364799 (OTOF), rs199804573 (OTOF), and 21 more.

Where they lie in the genome

The catalogue maps the 29 positions to 12 genes: OTOF, NOTCH3, TRPV4, AIFM1, TP63, OPA1, MYO7A, SLC52A3, MFN2, KIF5A, TWNK, CDH2. That mapping says where a position sits, in a gene or beside one — not what it does. For what each study measured, follow its citation above.

What these records can and cannot tell you

Association records say which positions differ, on average, between people with Auditory Neuropathy and people without. They do not describe the condition, say how common it is, or tell anyone what to do, so this page does not either. For a single position, open its variant page: it gives that study's record in fixed sentences, with ClinVar's where there is one.

Clinical detail

Genotype and diagnosis

A genotype does not diagnose Auditory Neuropathy; a clinician does. No guideline uses the 29 variants on this page to predict it, screen for it or confirm it.

Everything here comes from population-level association records, put together by code. Those records compare groups of people; they do not examine anyone, and they give no guidance on care. For symptoms, testing or treatment, ask a clinician.

Questions about Auditory Neuropathy

What is Auditory Neuropathy?

In the GWAS Catalog, Auditory Neuropathy is filed as "Auditory neuropathy". Rather than define it, this page lists the genome-wide findings: 29 positions from 1 study, each with its study's sample and citation.

Is Auditory Neuropathy genetic?

Genome-wide studies have reported 29 associated positions. Each common variant has a small effect, and an association in a population is not a cause in any one person.

Which genes are linked to Auditory Neuropathy on this page?

The positions lie in or near 12 genes: OTOF, NOTCH3, TRPV4, AIFM1, TP63, OPA1, MYO7A, SLC52A3, MFN2, KIF5A, TWNK, CDH2. A mapped gene is the catalogue's location for a position, not a mechanism.

Can these variants predict whether I will get Auditory Neuropathy?

No. They are population-level findings of small effect. Auditory Neuropathy is diagnosed by a clinician, and no guideline uses a genotype to predict it.
