About
Dizziness is a common complaint among patients who visit primary care physicians, neurologists, and otolaryngologists. Some types of dizziness have been found to be familial, which distinguishes them from other causes of dizziness. Familial dizziness has been observed in patients with isolated recurrent attacks of dizziness, hereditary deafness syndromes, and in patients with neurological disorders. While research in these areas has advanced our understanding of dizziness, much remains to be elucidated about its underlying causes. Through analyzing the genome data of the UK Biobank, we aim to identify genetic mutations that may contribute to development of diseases that can cause dizziness. By identifying genetic factors associated with dizziness, researchers can gain insights into the underlying mechanisms of the disorder and potentially develop more targeted and effective treatments. Additionally, identifying individuals at a higher risk for certain types of dizziness would allow earlier intervention and prevention based on their genetic profile.1 Publication
