    Notes: Summary The study aimed at tracing the population of insulin-treated diabetics living in the Funen County, Denmark (approximately 450 000 inhabitants) on 1 July 1973. It was based on a recording of insulin prescriptions among all prescriptions handled by the pharmacies in Funen County during a fivemonth period. Through information from medical records and public registries the verification of the diagnosis and the identity of the insulin prescription holders were checked, and it is estimated that the completeness of the study material was above 98%. Age- and sex-specific prevalence rates of insulin-treated diabetes mellitus were calculated. The overall prevalence rate for males was 3.6 per 1,000 and that for females 3.3 per 1,000.

    Notes: Summary To provide unbiased material for epidemiological studies of diabetes mellitus a case finding method based on the Danish National Service Conscript Registry and death certificates is presented and discussed. Eight Danish total male birth cohorts, totalling 320162 persons, have been observed as to the occurrence of diabetes mellitus during the first twenty years of life, and it is concluded that the conscript registry represents an ideal basis for case identification, if the individual cases are further elucidated. he material is estimated to be about 95% complete. The main source of error originates from omissions when the registries are scrutinized. The cumulative incidence rates for the birth cohorts range from 1.3 to 3.2 per thousand; in the total material 2.4 per thousand.

    Notes: Summary Three groups of patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, ascertained by different procedures, were investigated for HLA-A, B, C and D antigens (n=164), and a subset (n=93) for HLA-DR. Both HLA-D/DR3 and D/DR4 were strongly positively associated and D/DR2 was negatively associated with insulin-dependent diabetes. HLA-DR4 was found to be a better marker for insulin-dependent diabetes than Dw4. The HLA-B associations (B8, B15 and B18) were clearly secondary to the increases of HLA-D/DR3 and D/DR 4. The HLA associations did not differ between familial and isolated cases indicating that these two groups may well have a common genetic background. Based on analysis of HLA-haplotype sharing in affected sibling pairs, a simple dominant model of inheritance could be ruled out, and a simple recessive model was found unlikely. The relative risks for the HLA-Dw3,4 and HLA-DR3,4 phenotype were 21.2 and 44.4 respectively and exceeded those of both the HLA-Dw3 and HLA-DR3 (5.6 and 4.3) as well as the HLA-Dw4 and DR4 (10.1 and 10.5) phenotypes. This argues against an intermediate genetic model but further studies are needed to clarify whether there is more than one susceptibility gene for insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus within the HLA-system.

    Notes: Summary The relative importance of genetic factors in the pathogenesis of age related bone loss has been investigated in a study involving 17 monozygotic (MZ) and 8 dizygotic (DZ) pairs of twins aged 64 to 75 years. Radiographic morphometry was performed at the midpoints of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th metacarpals of both hands and the mean total and cortical widths were evaluated. The heritability, h2, was calculated as the difference between the intrapair variances in same sexed DZ and MZ pairs divided by the intrapair variance in DZ pairs. The mean intrapair variance of both total and cortical width was found to be four to five times higher in DZ than in MZ pairs. The differences are highly significant with an h2 value between 0.7 and 0.8, indicating a predominant genetic influence. It is stressed that this result applies only to the population from which the twin sample was drawn.

    Notes: Summary Selected fluorescence markers of chromosomes were studied in 50 paired samples of cells obtained by culture of amniocentesis material and by culture of leukocytes from pregnant women. Comparative analyses showed that this method is of great value in disclosing admixture of maternal cells to material obtained by amniocentesis, as a minimum of 2 fluorescence marker differences between mother and fetus was found in the present material. The distribution of markers in mother/fetus pairs is in agreement with the assumption of genetic determination. Variation was observed between populations with respect to the frequency of the markers studied.

    Notes: Abstract In the County of Fyn, Denmark, which is a well-delimited region comprising a 10% representative sample of the total population, ten complete one year cohorts of newborn were scrutinized for neural tube defects (NTD). Among 66,000 births, 71 cases with NTD were observed. The total prevalence at birth was 1.08/1,000; 0.29 for anencephaly; 0.20 for encephalocele, and 0.59 for spina bifida (SB). This is at the same level as in other Scandinavian countries. Considering only neonates born alive, 57% of the total survived until the age of 7 years, disregarding anencephaly, but only 4 of 18 SB cases and 6 of 11 encephalocele cases had no handicaps at age 7. On the average, SB patients spent 9% of their life before the age of 7 years in hospitals and encephaloceles 2%. The SB cases occupied 25 times more beds per year than the comparable age group in general and many were likely to need continued medical and social care.

    Notes: Abstract A particular case of interface cracks is considered. The materials at each side of the interface are assumed to have different yield strength and plastic strain hardening exponent, while elastic properties are identical. The problem is considered to be a relevant idealization of a crack at the fusion line in a weldment. A systematic investigation of the mismatch effect in this bi-material plane strain mode I dominating interface crack has been performed by finite strain finite element analyses. Results for loading causing small scale yielding at the crack tip are described. It is concluded that the near-tip stress field in the forward sector can be separated, at least approximately, into two parts. The first part is characterized by the homogeneous small scale yielding field controlled by J for one of the interface materials, the reference material. The second part which influences the absolute value of stresses at the crack tip and measures the deviation of the fields from the first part can be characterized by a mismatch constraint parameter M. Results have indicated that the second part is a very weak function of distance from the crack tip in the forward sector, and the angular distribution of the second part is only a function of the plastic hardening property of the reference material.
