The Surviving Monozygotic Twin [PDF]
Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1986 It has been suggested that because of vascular interchange between the monozygous twins vascular disruptions from a deceased cotwin with disseminated intravascular coagulation causes embolisation in the surviving twin. This study reports six cases in which all the surviving monozygous twins had central nervous system infarcts and three had multiple ...

Monozygotic Heterocaryotic Twinning [PDF]
Acta geneticae medicae et gemellologiae, 1974 Since the first publication in 1961, cases of monozygotic heterocaryotic twinning have been repeatedly found and a total of 14 observations can now be analysed. The mechanism involved in this type of twinning is yet uncertain and eventually is not identical in each case, the main uncertainty being to decide whether the chromosomal error affecting one ...

Urticaria in Monozygotic and Dizygotic Twins [PDF]
Journal of Allergy, 2012 Aim. To identify risk factors for urticaria, to determine the relative proportion of the susceptibility to urticaria that is due to genetic factors in an adult clinical twin sample, and to further determine whether the genetic susceptibility to urticaria overlaps with the genetic susceptibility to atopic diseases. Methods.

Molar incisor hypomineralisation: current knowledge and practice
International Dental Journal, EarlyView., 2020 Background Molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) is a common developmental dental condition that presents in childhood. Areas of poorly formed enamel affect one or more first permanent molars and can cause opacities on the anterior teeth. MIH presents a variety of challenges for the dental team as well as functional and social impacts for affected ...

Nested Selves: Self‐Organization and Shared Markov Blankets in Prenatal Development in Humans
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract The immune system is a central component of organismic function in humans. This paper addresses self‐organization of biological systems in relation to—and nested within—other biological systems in pregnancy. Pregnancy constitutes a fundamental state for human embodiment and a key step in the evolution and conservation of our species. While not

Isolated oligodontia in monozygotic twins [PDF]
European Journal of Dentistry, 2013 ABSTRACTThis case report defines a case of isolated oligodontia of 9 and 10 permanent teeth in 9-year-old monozygotic twin sisters and gives information about the possible genetic and environmental etiology, related dental anomalies and treatment options.

Monozygotic twins with ulcerative colitis [PDF]
Postgraduate Medical Journal, 1982 Abstract Monozygous twin sisters developed ulcerative colitis within 7 years of each other. Both had distal colitis confirmed by histology and radiology. Their maternal grandmother subsequently developed the disease. The long interval between the onset of the disease in the twins suggests a role for environmental factors in addition to ...

Gut Microbiome Pilot Study of Patients With CHARGE Syndrome and Sibling Controls
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Difficulties with feeding and digestion are common in individuals with CHARGE syndrome. Animal models with CHD7 gene variants demonstrate abnormal gut innovation and dysmotility. Our pilot study evaluated whether individuals with CHARGE syndrome have differences in their gut microbiome compared to unaffected siblings.

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Emerging research suggests neighborhood disadvantage is associated with disordered eating (DE; e.g., binge eating, body dissatisfaction) beginning in middle childhood, with effects that increment those of proximal disadvantage (e.g., family income).

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.Abstract Background Lower parental nurturance is consistently associated with higher levels of youth antisocial behavior (ASB), but the etiology of this association remains unclear. To fill this gap, we employed a twin differences approach to illuminate the environmental and genetic origins of the association between parental nurturance and children's ...
