Abstract
⺠We studied the association between SSNHL and CFH Y402H polymorphism. ⺠We conducted a case-control study. ⺠The cases were 72 SSNHL patients and the controls were 2161 residents. ⺠CFH Y402H polymorphism and SSNHL risk are significantly related. ⺠Diabetic CFH Y402H minor allele carriers may be susceptible to SSNHL.
