Acute keratoconus in mongols.

Acute keratoconus is the term applied to the sudden development of a gross degree of corneal oedema in a patient with a pre-existing keratoconus. This rare condition was probably first described by Terrien (I906). An association between mongolism and acute keratoconus has recently been observed, the first two cases having been reported by Hoffmann (I956). Three cases (two bilateral) are reporte...

The physical development of mongols.

Because it is a well differentiated and common form of mental defect, mongolism has been exhaustively studied. Most of the studies, however, have been directed at the possible aetiology of this condition. This paper is not concerned with aetiological problems but is a discussion of two purely physical findings in mongol boys, height and skeletal age. Some findings in adult male mongols have bee...

The genetic legacy of the Mongols.

We have identified a Y-chromosomal lineage with several unusual features. It was found in 16 populations throughout a large region of Asia, stretching from the Pacific to the Caspian Sea, and was present at high frequency: approximately 8% of the men in this region carry it, and it thus makes up approximately 0.5% of the world total. The pattern of variation within the lineage suggested that it...
