BACKGROUND A recent study of familial and early onset prostate cancer reported a recurrent rare germline mutation of HOXB13 among men of European descent. The gene resides within the 17q21 hereditary prostate cancer linkage interval. METHODS We evaluated the G84E germline mutation (rs138213197) of HOXB13 in a case-control study of familial prostate cancer at Vanderbilt University (Nashville, ...
Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder with an incidence of approximately 0.5%. In order to develop better strategies for treatment of epilepsy, more insight on the etiology and pathogenesis of epilepsy is required. In 2001, based on the diagnostic scheme of the International League Against Epilepsy, three new forms of familial epilepsy were identified. These include familial temporal lobe ...
conclusions our results showed that many personal, familial, and social factors play a role in addiction relapse. the high prevalence of return to addiction necessitates further strategies for the more optimal control of these factors. patients and methods in this descriptive study, 146 addicts referring to addiction treatment centers in the iranian city of ahvaz were selected via purposive and...
BACKGROUND Brain arteriovenous malformations (BAVMs) are thought to be sporadic developmental vascular lesions, but familial occurrence has been described. We compared the characteristics of patients with familial BAVMs with those of patients with sporadic BAVMs. METHODS We systematically reviewed the literature on patients with familial BAVMs. Three families that were found in our centre wer...
BACKGROUND Although they were once considered separate nosologic entities, there is current interest in the etiologic overlap between bipolar disorder (BD) and schizophrenia. A critical issue concerns the familial basis of the overlap, specifically, the possibility of a distinct familial subtype of BD with psychotic features. METHODS We recruited individuals with BD from the community and com...
BACKGROUND Genetic factors play important roles in lung cancer susceptibility. In this study, we replicated the association of 5p15.33 and 6p21.33 with familial lung cancer. Taking into account the previously identified genetic susceptibility variants on 6q23-25/RGS17 and 15q24-25.1, we further determined the cumulative association of these four genetic regions and the population attributable r...
BACKGROUND A primary characteristic of complex genetic diseases is that affected individuals tend to cluster in families (that is, familial aggregation). Aggregation of the same autoimmune condition, also referred to as familial autoimmune disease, has been extensively evaluated. However, aggregation of diverse autoimmune diseases, also known as familial autoimmunity, has been overlooked. There...
BACKGROUND We examined all-cause mortality and long-term thromboembolic risk (ischemic stroke, transient ischemic attack, systemic thromboembolism) in patients with and without familial atrial fibrillation (AF). METHODS AND RESULTS Using Danish nationwide registry data, we identified all patients diagnosed with AF (1995-2012) and divided them into those with familial AF (having a first-degree...
BACKGROUND The occurrence of familial forms of sarcoidosis (OMIM 181100) suggests a genetic predisposition. The involvement of butyrophilin-like 2 (BTNL2) gene (rs2076530 variant) has to be investigated. RESULTS The study performed independent analyses of BTNL2 polymorphism, clinical phenotypes, and outcomes in familial vs. sporadic presentations in 256 sporadic and 207 familial cases from 14...
BACKGROUND Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis has been only infrequently reported from India. CASE CHARACTERISTICS An Indian girl with progressive cholestatic liver disease beginning during infancy, normal gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase levels, parental consanguinity, positive family history and a fatal outcome. OBSERVATION A novel, homozygous mutation (c.[589_592inv;592_593insA])...
