Associated persons: Fuller Albright Esther Bloomberg Allan Macy Butler Description: A syndrome of severe developmental anomalies, marked by short-limbed dwarfism affecting the lower extremities, bowing of the lower limbs, genua vara, occasional genua valga, costochondral beading, enlarged wrists and ankles, enamel hypoplasia, delayed dentition, and premature loss of permanent dentition. Associated disorders include waddling gait, protuberant abdomen and, less commonly, dolicocephaly and craniosynostosis. It is a metabolic disturbance of hypophosphatemia, elevated serum alkaline phosphatase, diminished tubular reabsorption of phosphate with resulting hyperphosphaturia, and faulty intestinal absorption of calcium. It is resistant to Vitamin-D therapy. Onset usually takes place after 6 months of age. Inheritance is X-linked.

ABSTRACT Clinical Sotos syndrome with del(5)(qter) detected by subtelomeric FISH analysis. J. M. D. Hahnemann , B. Kassow , K. Nielsen , L. Buchardt , P. Baekgaard and M. Dunoe Medical Genetics Laboratory Center, The John F. Kennedy Institute, Glostrup, Denmark Center of Children’s Neurology, Dept. Paediatrics, Glostrup University Hospital, Glostrup, Denmark Molecular Genetics Laboratory, Dept. Clinical Genetics, Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen, Denmark ponsible for this syndrome, NSD1, is located in 5q35. A real-time quantitative PCR approach subsequently confirmed that the deletion included exon 5 of the NSD1 gene. This is to our knowledge the first diagnosis of Sotos syndrome through subtelomeric FISH. Deletions of the whole NSD1 gene were originally reported by a Japanese group to be the most frequent type of mutation among persons with Sotos syndrome. Mapping of the size of the deletion by FISH is in progress. Authors Home Page Keywords Abstracts will be published by Elsevier (Annales de Génétique)

Neurological examination of newborns and infants Draft translation Central Insitute of improving doctor’s qualification E.A. Edelstein Neurological examination of newborns and infants is based on the same scheme that is used for older children and adults: CN Motor function Reflexes Sensation Meningeal signs It should be noted that neurological status of the newborns has some special features. The mainstay of investigation is the analysis of congenital reflexes which reflect the maturity if CNS, viability of the newborn and adaptation potential. The following conditions should be fulfilled during examination: comfortable room T (25-26), and it is not recommended to examine the child immediately postprandial or before feeding because feeding determinant can change the level of his congenital reflexes. It should be noted that congenital reflexes of newborns are very labile and are easily fatigued. One should elicit reflexes quickly and turn the child only after cranial and facial skeleton and cranial nerves have been already tested. It is important to look for dysembryological stigmata, which can be frequently encountered: abnormal earlobes (low amount of helixes, absence of earlobes, elongated upper part – rabbit's ear, low set ears), wide nose bridge (hypertelorism), prognatism, low hair border.

Stormfront White Nationalist Community General Science, Technology and Race What Kind Of Skull Is This? Nordic? Is this what a common Nordic skull looks like? JohnJoyTree I am sure they will be glad to tell you at www.skadi.net Widukind Is this what a common Nordic skull looks like? Not knowing the cranial index I cannot be 100% sure but by pure observation alone I would say yes; a fine handsome Nordic specimen. FrozenDice He's very good looking I'd say :) BluEidDvl Notice the SS chevron on his collar! :clink I am sure they will be glad to tell you at www.skadi.net Looks like the site is down. I thought that site was corrupt. Boer Warrior Is this what a common Nordic skull looks like? Well may i remind you that all white people (expect alpine and half alpine mixed types) have virtualy the same skull shapes within a small broadrange form individual to individual of course. In the end it has virtualy nothing to do with nordic or not it has something to do with PERFECT semetrical WHITE features and skull size. "Beauty" plays a fundamental key role there = the more symetrical and perfect shaped, the more "beautiful" it is to most people. Widukind Well may i remind you that all white people (expect alpine and half alpine mixed types) have virtualy the same skull shapes within a small broadrange form individual to individual of course.

Stormfront White Nationalist Community General Science, Technology and Race What is your blood type? CelticGirl Hello, everyone. I have currently been investigating the different blood types and the characteristics of each blood type, and also the occurrence of certain blood types among racial and ethnic groups. Most of you have probably heard of the nutritionist D'Adamo who wrote the books about how to eat right for your blood type. But the most intriguing data I have found about blood types is the significance of the Rh factor. For those of you who don't know, the Rh factor signifies the presence or absence of rhesus monkey proteins in the blood. If you have a "positive" blood type, then your blood contains the rhesus proteins. If your blood is a "negative" type, then your blood has no rhesus proteins. It just so happens that Rh+ blood is dominant, with Rh- blood being recessive...only about 5% to 15% of the planet is Rh-. Also, Rh- negative blood is far more common among Caucasians than any other race. Native Americans have the second highest occurrence of this blood type. Now, the presence of rhesus "monkey" proteins in the blood do not necessarily mean that Rh+ people are simians. But it could be a clue to mankind's relation to the primate family of animals. So if all humans are related to or descended from primates, then why are there people who have no "monkey" proteins in their blood at all?

Synonyms Tetrasomy, Short Arm of Chromosome 18 Disorder Subdivisions None Related Disorders List Information on the following diseases can be found in the Related Disorders section of this report: Chromosome 18, Trisomy 18 Chromosomal Disorders General Discussion Chromosome 18, Tetrasomy 18p is a very rare chromosomal disorder in which the short arm of the 18th chromosome (18p) appears four times (tetrasomy) rather than twice in cells of the body. Individuals with a normal chromosomal make-up (karyotype) have two 18th chromosomes, both of which have a short arm ("18p") and a long arm ("18q"). However, in individuals with Chromosome 18, Tetrasomy 18p, four short arms (18ps) are present in cells of the body rather than the normal two. The symptoms of Chromosome 18, Tetrasomy 18p may vary from case to case. Many affected individuals may have abnormalities of the head and facial (craniofacial) area; malformations of the spine, hands, and/or feet; neuromuscular abnormalities, such as increased muscle tone (hypertonia), increased reflex reactions (hyperreflexia), and difficulty coordinating movement; kidney (renal) malformations; and/or additional physical abnormalities. In addition, children and adults with Chromosome 18, Tetrasomy 18p often exhibit moderate to severe mental retardation, limitations in speech, and/or behavioral abnormalities. In most cases, Chromosome 18, Tetrasomy 18p is the result of a spontaneous (de novo) genetic change (mutation) early in embryonic development that occurs for unknown reasons (sporadic).

This is due to growth delays during fetal development (intrauterine growth retardation). Growth delays and immature bone development (growth retardation and delayed bone maturation) typically continue after birth (postnatally), leading to short stature (dwarfism) with proportional development of the arms and legs (as opposed to short stature with abnormally small arms and legs [short-limbed dwarfism]).
