“…The contribution of the rest of consanguineous marriages is not high (8.86% of total value of a). There is no type 1 marriage (between uncle-niece or aunt-nephew) but this is as expected, since it is not a common type of marriage (VALLS, 1983;TOJA & LUNA, 1985;PALACIOS, 1986) and the Catholic Church has not conceded dispensations for this degree since 1935 (SUTTER & Goux, 1962). Notice that although the percentage of consanguineous marriages in the French Cerdagne is lower than in other Pyrenean populations, the mean consanguinity does not differ significantly.…”

“…The mean coefficient of parental inbreeding for the 42 sibships was 530 x 10-5 (a= 0.016), a figure 23 times that of the mean coefficient for marriages contracted in France, 23 x 10-5, during the years 1956 to 1958 (Sutter and Goux, 1962). At present, the latter coefficient is probably much lower.…”

Summary. A national distribution of 66 French patients, from 49 sibships, has been studied. Segregation analysis, using the maximum likelihood method, was found to agree with the theoretical values expected in recessive autosomal inheritance. The birthplaces of these patients show an unequal geographic distribution of cystinosis, the incidence being higher in Western France. Compared with the total number of live births during the period 1959 to 1972, the minimum incidence of the condition in the province of Brittany is 1 per 25 909, and the gene frequency 0.0062. In the rest of France, the minimum incidence is 1 per 326,440 and the gene frequency 0.0018. Application of Dahlberg's formula gives a similar result. The mean inbreeding coefficient is 530 x 10-5, a figure 23 times higher than the mean coefficient of France. An indirect test of inbreeding, the distance between parental birthplaces, was studied, first using the French administrative boundaries, second by using kilometres. This distance was constantly smaller for the parents of patients than for the parents of controls. Analysis of two erythrocyte polymorphisms (ABO and Rh) showed a large excess of group A patients when compared with overall French data. These findings are difficult to interpret on genetic grounds. The genetic reasons for the unequal geographic distribution of cystinosis in France are discussed.

“…Initially, the studies were aimed at the demography of consanguineous marriages from Church dispensations, and local inbreeding levels in time and space were studied by such investigators as Fleury (1933), Sutter andTabah (1948, 1955), Sutter and Goux (1962), Sutter (1968), Henry (1973), just to remember the names of a few pioneers who also developed the methods of data analysis.…”
