Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1973
Abstract The number of patients suffering from kuru is rapidly diminishing. For this reason and because of the possible resemblance of the EEG to those of other “viral” diseases the EEGs of all accessible kuru patients were recorded in June 1971.

Kuru is a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy that was identified in Papua New Guinea in the late 1950s. Several thousand cases of the disease occurred during a period of several decades. Epidemiologic investigations implicated ritual endocannibalistic funeral feasts as the likely route through which the infectious agent was spread.We estimated the

Annals of Human Genetics, 1963
SummaryThe incidence of kuru in the populations of the South Fore and Gimi census divisions in the Eastern Highlands of New Guinea has been analysed. When the probable accuracy of the initial estimates of age (or years of birth) is taken into account, the mortality curves for females lack the bimodality thought to be characteristic of kuru; instead ...

Kuru, the progressive and fatal neurologic disorder which occurred exclusively among natives of the New Guinea Highlands, were reviewed. Early history of kuru investigation, epidemiology, clinical findings, pathological findings, successful transmission with chimpanzees, from unconventional virus to prion hypothesis and the similarities to "variant of ...
