Concordant Disease in Identical Twins
JAMA, 1964A unique pair of identical twins were concordant for breast cancer, diabetes mellitus, nontoxic goiter, hypertension, cholecystitis, obesity, relaxed pelvic outlet, and myomata uteri.

Parkinson's disease in monozygotic twins
Annals of Neurology, 1986AbstractRecent studies of twins have demonstrated an unexpectedly low concordance of Parkinson's disease in monozygotic twins. Only two monozygotic twin pairs concordant for it have been reported. However, both pairs were atypical because of an early age at onset and other unusual features.

Hyaline Membrane Disease in Twins
Pediatrics, 1968In analyzing the evidence for the role of prematurity and the significance of added stress in the pathogenesis of hyaline membrane disease, it seems pertinent to examine the occurrence of the disease in twins. Were prematurity alone the determinant of the likelihood of developing the disease, one would expect the disease to occur in both twins.

Hyaline Membrane Disease in Twins
Pediatrics, 1969We were very interested to see the data from Czechoslovakia and Baltimore supporting the view that there is a higher incidence of hyaline membrane disease (HMD) in the more severely stressed, second-born than in the first-born members of twin pairs; our experience in this geographically intermediate part of the world has been very similar ever since we

Congenital Heart Disease in Twins
New England Journal of Medicine, 1967THE familial nature of congenital heart disease has become increasingly apparent.1 2 3 However, a major obstacle to the acceptance of a significant genetic role in the etiology of congenital heart defects has been the failure to demonstrate that when 1 member of a set of identical twins is affected with a congenital heart lesion, the co-twin is also ...

Twin studies in rheumatic diseases
Seminars in Arthritis and Rheumatism, 1994Twin studies attract both clinicians and geneticists because of the value of the twin method in helping unravel the genetic predisposition to diseases and the role of environment in their causation. In the field of rheumatology, there are many case reports on twins concordant or discordant for diseases.
