Studies on spontaneously-arising genetic and partially genetic disorders in man within the framework of the evaluation of genetic radiation hazards

  • 1. Rijksuniversiteit Leiden (Netherlands). Sylvius Lab.

Description

The project's aims are threefold: to make detailed analyses of the population prevalence of naturally-occurring multifactorial, Mendelian and chromosomal diseases, in order to assess the validity of the estimates of prevalence currently used in the context of the evaluation of genetic radiation hazards in man; to make use of these data and those that bear on the severity of these diseases to arrive at estimates of detriment; and to explore and devise methods that can be used for making quantitative estimates of risk of multifactorial diseases. The work completed during 1986-1989 includes a systematic analysis of naturally-occurring multifactorial diseases in the population of Hungary. (R.P.) 10 refs
