Abstract

Noise-induced hearing loss(NIHL) is an acquired sensorineural hearing loss induced by long-term noise exposure. The susceptibility of exposed people may vary even in the same noise environment. With the development of sequencing techniques, genes related to oxidative stress, immunoinflammatory, ion homeostasis, energy metabolism, DNA damage repair and other mechanisms in NIHL have been reported continuously. And some genes may interact with noise exposure indexes. In this article, population studies on NIHL-related gene polymorphisms and gene-environment interactions in the past 20 years are reviewed, aimed to providing evidence for the construction of NIHL-related risk prediction models and the formulation of individualized interventions.
