Abstract
Objective The involvement of the inner ear in otosclerosis may lead to the development of cochlear otosclerosis. The aim of this study was to analyse changes in the chemical composition and microstructure of the stapes in the course of otosclerosis compared to healthy stapes. Materials and methods This analysis included 31 patients with otosclerosis and 9 patients without otosclerosis. Microanalytical and diffraction techniques were used to assess the elemental distribution and orientation topography of the stapes. Results The concentration of Ca2+ in the study group was significantly lower in the area of the anterior crus of the stapes than in the posterior crus. A reduction in the Ca2+/P3+ ratio in the anterior crus was associated with deteriorated bone conduction and tinnitus. Degradation of the stapes microstructure in the area of otosclerotic lesions was observed with scanning electron microscopy. Conclusions Bone remodelling is most significant at the closest location to typical otosclerotic lesions with hydroxyapatite porosity and scale-like bone formation according to scanning electron microscopy. There is a relationship between the disturbance of calcium metabolism and the development of clinical symptoms of cochlear otosclerosis.

Abstract
Hereditary endocrine and metabolic diseases , caused by genetic factors, exhibit complex and diverse symptoms, including the possibility of concurrent sensorineural deafness. Currently, there is a limited clinical understanding of hereditary endocrine and metabolic diseases that manifest with deafness, the pathogenesis remains unclear,and there is a lack of effective diagnostic and treatment methods. This article summarizes the research progress of hereditary endocrine and metabolic diseases complicated with deafness from the pathogenesis, clinical phenotype, diagnosis and treatment. Understanding the current research progress and integrating genetic analysis into clinical practice are crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment, evaluating clinical efficacy, and providing effective genetic counseling for these diseases.

Abstract
A 39-year-old male was incidentally detected to have hypertension and chronic kidney disease (CKD) with left solitary functioning kidney in 2017. He has bilateral sensorineural hearing loss since adolescence. He was initially suspected to have adynamic bone disease in view of low parathyroid hormone levels and was started on teriparatide injections and calcium supplements. Despite all these measures, he had persistent hypocalcemia and low parathyroid hormone levels. Hence, Hypoparathyroidism, Deafness, and Renal dysplasia (HDR) syndrome was suspected, and the patient was evaluated for the same. Genetic analysis revealed the presence of a de novo and a novel frameshift mutation in GATA-binding protein 3 (GATA3) gene on chromosome 10p. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of HDR syndrome being diagnosed by genetic analysis in India.

Abstract
Barakat syndrome, also known as HDR syndrome, is a clinically heterogenous, autosomal dominant rare genetic disease, which frequency is unknown. It is primarily caused by deletion of chromosome 10p14 or mutation of GATA3 gene, located on chromosome 10. Although this syndrome is phenotypically defined by its triad of HDR: hypoparathyroidism (H), deafness (D), renal disease (R), the literature identifies cases with different components, consisting of HD, DR, HR (1). The syndrome was first described by Amin J. Barakat et al. in 1977 in siblings with hypocalcemia and proteinuria (2). So far, about 180 cases have been reported in the worldwide medical literature (3). In this report we present our own case report of patient with Barakat syndrome with hypoparathyrodism, unilateral deafness and renal impairment.

Abstract
The GATA family of transcription factors consists of six proteins (GATA1-6) that control a variety of physiological and pathological processes. In particular, GATA2 and GATA3 are coexpressed in a number of tissues, including in the urogenital and sympathoadrenal systems, in which both factors participate in the developmental process and tissue maintenance. Furthermore, accumulating studies have demonstrated that GATA2 and GATA3 are involved in distinct types of inherited diseases as well as carcinogenesis in diverse tissues. This review summarizes our current knowledge of how GATA2 and GATA3 participate in the transcriptional regulatory circuitry during the development of the sympathoadrenal and urogenital systems, and how their dysregulation results in the carcinogenesis of neuroblastoma, renal urothelial, and gynecologic cancers.

Abstract
HDR syndrome is characterized by the triad of primary hypoparathyroidism, sensorineural hearing loss and renal malformation with widely variable manifestations. It is an autosomal dominant inherited disease caused by a mutation of the GATA3 (NM_001002295.2), which is located on chromosome 10p14. Congenital heart disease, such as tetralogy of Fallot, a typical complication of DiGeorge syndrome, is a rare complication of HDR syndrome. We herein report a case of HDR syndrome coexisting tetralogy of Fallot with a novel mutation, c.964C > T (p.Gln322*). This case suggested that the screening of renal involvement should be carefully performed in patients with a phenotypic combination of hypoparathyroidism and sensorineural hearing loss, to facilitate the early diagnosis of HDR syndrome. In addition, when the deletion of chromosome 22q11.2 is not detected by a fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis in patients exhibiting the partial phenotype of DiGeorge syndrome, the possibility of HDR syndrome should be considered and the renal function should be repeatedly evaluated.
