abstract：:Sex linked recessive deafness is a rare cause of male genetic deafness, estimated to account for 6.2% of male genetic deafness in 1966. A male excess was found in the deaf population of Ireland in 1851. Reevaluation of this survey of 1851 confirms sex linked deafness as a factor in the disproportionate number of deaf ...
