An enquiry answered by 100 randomly selected British Pakistani mothers in the postnatal wards of two hospitals in West Yorkshire showed that 55 were married to their first cousins, while in only 33 cases had their mother been married to her first cousin. This suggests an increasing rate of consanguineous marriage in this relatively small group, by contrast with the decreasing rate observed in some other countries. The genetic implications merit further study.
在西约克郡两家医院的产后病房对100名随机挑选的英裔巴基斯坦母亲进行的一项调查显示,其中55人与她们的第一代堂兄妹结婚,而她们的母亲只有33例是与自己的第一代堂兄妹结婚。这表明在这个相对较小的群体中近亲结婚率在上升,这与其他一些国家观察到的下降率形成对比。其遗传学影响值得进一步研究。
