Associations of genetic variation in CASP3 gene with noise-induced hearing loss in a Chinese population: a case–control study

Abstract Background Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is a complex disease caused by environmental and genetic risk factors. This study explored the relationship between the genetic variations in the CASP gene and the risk of developing NIHL among Chinese workers exposed to occupational noise. Metho...
