Paget Bone Disease And Heredity: A Case Report, Donato Agnusdei, Roberto Civitelli, Angelo Camporeale, Carlo Gennari Sep 1988

Paget Bone Disease And Heredity: A Case Report, Donato Agnusdei, Roberto Civitelli, Angelo Camporeale, Carlo Gennari

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Evidence on familial aggregation of Paget disease of bone shows that the trait is controlled by a single dominant gene. Due to the late onset of the disease, the primary biochemical abnormalities leading to the characteristic roentgenographic features are still unknown. We report the case of a 24-year-old woman who had an elevated serum alkaline phosphatase on routine analysis. Family history revealed that her father and paternal grandmother had Paget bone disease. This pattern is compatible with an autosomic dominant inheritance. Complete laboratory workup confirmed high heat labile alkaline phosphatase values, along with high serum osteocalcin and urinary hydroxyproline excretion. …

Adolescent Smoking Status And Socioeconomic Dependence On The Tobacco Crop In Southeastern Kentucky, Gregory Colwell

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

The purpose of the study was to quantify the relationship between adolescent smoking and economic dependence on the tobacco crop. A survey of 1322 students from a random sample of all secondary schools in four counties in southeastern Kentucky was performed. The survey gathered information concerning smoking behavior and social variables. Chi-square analysis was performed to assess the relationships between these variables in students from families who worked with tobacco and families who did not.

Chi square analysis of female adolescent smoking behavior revealed a significant association between the instances of adolescent smoking and age, friend smoking status and sibling …
