Consanguinity - Its Impact, Consequences and Management
Author: Lutfi A. Jaber
Publisher: Bentham Science Publishers
ISBN: 1608058883
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 189
Book Description
Consanguineous marriages have been practiced for hundreds of years, predominantly by Moslems. Although it is generally accepted among communities that the social advantages outweigh other, the rate of congenital malformations and genetic diseases among the offspring borne of consanguineous marriages is higher and an increase in sterility, rates of abortions, stillbirths and neonatal deaths has been suggested by some researchers. These problems result in a substantial economic burden within the communities involved in the practice. Strategies for reducing the frequency of consanguineous marriages include expansion of educational programs, promotion of genetic testing services, and research to identify the genes responsible for genetic defects. Nowadays, with the migration of large numbers of Moslems towards Western countries, consanguinity is becoming a practical issue in places where it was barely known, previously. This eBook serves as a guide for health care workers and counselors of the phenomenon and its associated problems. This eBook begins with an introduction of the topic from a social, legal and biological perspective. It then progresses to research about associated genetic disorders, reproductive and social awareness issues through the proceeding chapters. The eBook concludes with 2 chapters exploring strategies to counter the effects of consanguinity within the general population.

‘Blood Is Thicker Than Water’ – Non-Royal Consanguineous Marriage in Ancient Egypt
Author: Joanne-Marie Robinson
Publisher: Archaeopress Publishing Ltd
ISBN: 1789695449
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 246
Book Description
This volume presents, for the first time, evidence for non-royal consanguineous marriage in ancient Egypt. The evidence was collated from select sources from the Middle Kingdom to the Roman Period, and it has been used to investigate the potential economic and biological outcomes, particularly beyond the level of sibling and half-sibling unions.

Genetic Steroid Disorders
Author: Nicole Reisch
Publisher: Elsevier Inc. Chapters
ISBN: 0128073047
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 22
Book Description
Over the past two decades, genetics of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) have been extensively studied. The introduction of newborn screening programs in most western countries for CAH caused by 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD) and genetic studies in different ethnic populations have enabled more accurate data concerning the distribution and incidence of CAH and revealed ethnic-specific mutations. Worldwide, the most common mutations in the severe salt-wasting form of 21OHD are the IVS2, the intron 2 splicing mutation, and a large deletion in exon 3. In non-classic 21OHD the most common mutation worldwide is V281L (1685 G to T), being prevalent in about 60% of non-classic patients. This article summarizes the current knowledge on the observed geographical differences of mutation spectra of CAH in specific ethnic groups.
