    ABSTRACT: Background Hearing problems (HP) in adults are common and are associated with several comorbid conditions. Its prevalence increases with age, reflecting the cumulative effect of environmental factors and genetic predisposition. Although several risk loci have been already identified, HP biology and epidemiology are still insufficiently investigated by large-scale genetic studies. Methods Leveraging the UK Biobank, the Nurses' Health Studies (I and II), the Health Professionals Follow-up Study, and the Million Veteran Program, we conducted a comprehensive genome-wide investigation of HP in 748,668 adult participants (discovery N = 501,825; replication N = 226,043; cross-ancestry replication N = 20,800). We leveraged the GWAS findings to characterize HP polygenic arch
