“…Jews were found to have much lower rates for these disorders than the general population, while in contrast the rates for parents of Irish ancestry were greatly increased. These findings are thus consistent with the low rates reported among Jews in Israel (Halevi, 1967) and the well-known high rates in Ireland (Penrose, 1957;Stevenson et al, 1966;Registrar-General, Northern Ireland, 1963-1965.…”

“…Our slight but insignificant male preponderance agrees with most studies [1,14,16,19,25,29,34,37,39, 40] although a greater proportion offemales has been reported [15,17,27], We found no significant variation by month or season of birth; this agrees with the literature [1, 8, 10. 12, 15-17, 27.…”

The Epidemiology of Congenital Hydrocephalus

et al. 1981

In a hospital-based study of almost 174,000 total births during 1968–1976, the authors found the incidence of congenital hydrocephalus to be 66 cases per 100,000 births. There was a significantly higher frequency in children born to mothers who themselves had been born in Puerto Rico but no significant difference in incidence between whites and blacks. The influences of maternal age, previous pregnancies, socioeconomic status, temporal and other factors are assessed and compared to previous reports.
