In the 16 cases of familial HCL published, different HLA have been found. Although specific HLA antigens were found to have the same structure in some cases that suggests a genetic predisposition to HCL. Environmental factors, specifically farming labours, were implicated in too. We add two cases (father and son, both farmers), Their HLA haplotype has not been described, but the type A2Bw4Bw6 a...

Two cases, a father and son, of recurrent cerebellar ataxia in the same family are reported, suggesting a familial trait for the dysfunction. In the older male the onset of each episode (30-90 min.) was signalled by dysarthria which then progressed towards gait ataxia; the son presented closely similar clinical symptoms. Physical examination and blood chemistry revealed no obvious neurological ...

The Y chromosome is one of the smallest human chromosomes with an average size of 60 million base pairs (Mb). Between X and Y chromosomes, exchange is limited to small pseudoautosomal regions (PAR) of the X-Y pair (see Figure 1). During male meiosis, recombination only takes place at the most distal short arm (PAR 1) and at the tip of the Y chromosome long arm (PAR 2). For most of its length (t...

Classical statistical genetics models of a quantitative trait depending on an autosomal gene indicate that father-to-daughter and mother-to-son correlations should be the same. If phenotypes are not sex-dependent, father-to-son and mother-to-daughter correlations also share this common value. On the other hand, if the gene is sex-linked, then the father-to-son correlation is zero. Such models d...

Late nineteenth century intergenerational occupational mobility was higher in the US than in Britain. Differences between them in this type of mobility are absent today. Using data on 10,000 US and British father and son pairs followed over two intervals (the 1860s and 1870s, and the 1880s and 1890s), we examine how this convergence occurred. The US remained more mobile then Britain through 190...

The theme of the parables of the Lost Sheep and Lost Coin continue in the parable of the Lost Son, though now we have a longer, more personal story with three main characters. In this parable, the younger of two sons becomes unsettled with life on the family estate and requests his share of the inheritance, only to squander it recklessly in a foreign land. Upon his return home he is welcomed an...
