Magyarországon az ikerkutatások dön-tően az 1970-es években kezdődtek és alapjukat három ikernyilvántartás (köztük két iker-regiszter) biztosította. A vizsgálatok elsősorban a különböző veleszületett rendellenességekre, a fogamzásgátló tabletták és a folsav ikergyakoriságra való hatására, az ikrek pszichoszexuális vise… Show more

Subjects were requested to drink fluid and avoid eating 1 h and drinking coffee or alcohol 6 h prior to the testing.…”

We excluded opposite-sex dizygotic twin pairs to avoid bias of the heritability estimates in the presence of gender-specific or X chromosome effects, pregnant subjects and patients with acute or chronic renal disease.…”

“…Adult twins (mean age: 38.2 ± 14.6 years) were involved via the Hungarian Twin Registry (Littvay et al, 2013; Tárnoki et al, 2013), and completed our questionnaire at three Hungarian summer twin festivals (printed questionnaires, 38%), in hospitals during medical twin studies (partly via e-mail and by printed version of the questionnaire, 32%). In addition, 30% of the responders completed the questionnaire online.…”
