No full textFrom an investigation on 400 constitutional diseases of the skeleton foot deformities occur with a frequency of 18%. The most common deformity is represented by congenital clubfoot (14.7%), syndactyly (14.50%), brachydactyly (11%); follow the congenital flat foot (8.75%), Polydactyly (6.25%) and oligoectrodactyly (4.50%); unusual finding of congenital metatarsus varus (3.75%), congenital hallux valgus (2.00%) and hammer toe (2%); rare congenital talipes (1.75%), congenital hollow foot (1.25%) and congenital hallux varus (1.25%); very rare macrodactily (0.75%) and clinodactyly of the fifth finger (0.75%). The majority of diseases that are the basis of the deformities of the foot above are of genetic origin; they recognize an autosomal recessive trans4ission in the 41.12% and dominant in the 31.67%; a dominant X-linked transmission in 4.72% and recessive X-linked in 1.45% ; finally, they are transmitted in different ways with both dominant and recessive in the 7.88% of cases; forms of genetic origin are therefore 86.84% of all cases. 7% is represented by chromosome aberrations and the remaining by embryo-fetopathy or disease of unknown etiology
Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

Genotype-phenotype correlation in two sets of monozygotic twins with Williams syndrome
No full textWe report on two sets of monozygotic (MZ) twins with Williams syndrome (WS), following the 6 pairs already reported in the literature. We have confirmed monozygosity of both pairs of twins by DNA microsatellite analysis and the clinical diagnosis by fluorescence in situ hybridization using a WS- specific probe. Analysis of the concordance of different clinical signs between members of each pair of twins benefitted from a lengthy clinical follow-up, from 24 months to 7 years in one pair, and from the age of 15 years with reevaluation after 2 years in the other pair. Most clinical signs were concordant in the twins of each pair, with differences present at younger ages, mainly minor facial anomalies, being attenuated with time. Developmental delay was substantially concordant, but the degree differed slightly between twins in each pair. Inguinal hernia was present in a single twin in pair 1. Facial anomalies and other signs attributable to connective tissue abnormalities were also displayed by only one twin in both sets, suggesting that the WS genotype has only a predisposing role in the development of these signs
