A G‐band study of chromosomes in liveborn infants

Abstract: The results of a chromosome survey of 3993 liveborn infants, the majority of which have been studied using G-banding, are reported. The frequency of all types of chromosome abnormalities detected was similar to that found in previous newborn surveys, which were carried out on different socio-economic structure, but the incidence of aneuploid chromosome abnormalities was comparable in the two localities.

“…More recently, chromosome surveys of newborn infants utilizing various banding techniques have been published from 3 centers (Linet al, 1976;Hansteen et al, 1982;Bratkowska et aL, 1985). Surveys with banding techniques were restarted in Edinburgh, Scotland (Buckton et al, 1980) and Risskov, Denmark (Nielsen et al, 1982). However, most of these surveys have been performed on largely Caucasian populations, and less was known about Japanese newborn populations.…”

“…In Table 7, the frequencies of sex chromosome abnormalities detected in this survey are presented separately, comparing the two periods together with the data obtained from the seven surveys reviewed by Nielsen and Sillesen (1975) and those summarized from three surveys in the literature in which banding analyses were routinely performed (Lin et al, 1976;Buckton et aL, 1980;Hansteen et al, 1982). The data for sex chromosome abnormalities from two surveys (Nielsen et al, 1982;Bratkowska et al, 1985) are not included in Table 7, since exact numbers of male and female infants were not given in their reports.…”

“…8 The euchromatic variants of bands 9p12, 9q12/9qh and 9q13 usually involve additional G-band dark, C-band negative, whole chromosome 9 paint-positive euchromatin. The 9p12 euchromatic variant was first described by Buckton et al 9 and involves duplication of B5 Mb 10 or amplification of B1 Mb 11 of segmentally duplicated material that maps to 9p and 9q. The 9q12/9qh euchromatic variant was first reported by Madan 12 and later by others.…”

“…3, 1988 groups. In addition, a similar variant was also detected in chromosome 9 (Buckton et al, 1980;Archidiacono et al, 1984;Spedicato et al, 1985). The origin and nature of this extra chromosomal materials, which apparently does not contain active genes but differs from usual heterochromatin in staining properties, remains to be established.…”
