One thousand children ranging from newborns to 13 years of age with a variety of clinical disorders were referred to us to investigate the possible presence of chromosomal abnormalities. Various types of chromosomal anomalies were found in 166 children (16.6%), which is significantly (p < 0.01) higher than in an unselected (control) population (0.48-0.55%). The male:female ratio was 3:2 for the total population. Furthermore, in our survey population, the sex ratio of Down's syndrome cases of males to females was 3:2.
1000名年龄从新生儿到13岁、患有各种临床疾病的儿童被转介到我们这里,以调查是否可能存在染色体异常。在166名儿童(16.6%)中发现了各种类型的染色体异常,这显著高于(p < 0.01)未经过筛选的(对照)人群(0.48 - 0.55%)。总体人群的男女比例为3:2。此外,在我们的调查人群中,唐氏综合征病例的男女比例为3:2。
