Yang et al. [23] recruited 190 NSHL patients, and after excluding the common GJB2, SLC26A4 and MT-RNR1 variants, 33 probands were determined to have rare HL variants, 28 were autosomal recessive, four were autosomal dominant, and one was mitochondrial. Here, SLC26A4 is linked to nodular sclerosis classical Hodgkin lymphoma.
