Abstract Background The aim of this study was to screen for noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL)-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and to construct genetic risk prediction models for NIHL in a Chinese population. Methods Four hundred seventy-six subjects with NIHL and 476 matched contro...
