  • Patterns of joint distribution in hand osteoarthritis

    Open AccessLeonid Kalichman, Zvi Cohen et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Human Biology2004

    The most frequent site of osteoarthritis (OA) is the hands, but the pattern of hand OA development remains controversial. Understanding these patterns may assist in evaluating biological aging, determining etiology, and proposing ways of preventing hand OA. We investigated the pattern distribution of OA in hands and the influences of age, sex, and handedness on its development. The study population was comprised of Chuvashians (660 males age 18–8…

  • Interrelationship between bone aging traits and basic anthropometric characteristics

    Open AccessLeonid Kalichman, Zvi Cohen et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Human Biology2002

    Using plain hand radiographs, the age dependence of various bone‐aging traits (bone mineral density [BMD], cortical index [CI], osteoarthritis [OA], and osseographic [OSS] scores) was evaluated to test whether the correlation among these traits is an individual‐ or population‐based phenomenon. In addition, the effect of anthropometric features on variation of bone‐aging traits was estimated. The study included 1,295 individuals from Chuvasha, Rus…

  • Mode of Inheritance of Hand Osteoarthritis in Ethnically Homogeneous Pedigrees

    Gregory Livshits, Gregogy Livshits et al.ARTICLEHuman Biology2002Cited by: 5

    The aim of the present study was to investigate the extent and mode of inheritance of hand osteoarthritis (OA) using a large sample of ethnically homogeneous pedigrees. Two types of segregation analysis (SA) models were examined. Type I models used the data adjusted for potential significant covariates, particularly age and sex, prior to genetic analysis. Type 11 models incorporated effects of the potential covariates into major gene penetrance f…

  • Relationship between physical growth and motor development in infancy and early childhood

    Open AccessGregory Livshits, Zvi Cohen et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Human Biology1993

    This study was based on a sample of 651 singleton infants, from 325 unrelated families. Body weight (WT), length (LT) and head circumference (HC) of each child were measured at day of birth and thereafter every 3 months during the first 2 years. The achievement of five developmental milestones was surveyed, the ages at which the infant could turn him- or herself over (TURN), sit up (SAT), stand up (STOOD), walk without support (WALK), and cut the…

  • Ethnic and familial factors in early child development

    Open AccessItshak Otremski, Gregory Livshits et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Human Biology1992

    A sample (1,031 individuals) of infants born at varying gestational ages (26–42 weeks) and birth weights (860–4,750 g) was used in a study of 5 developmental traits appearing during the first 2 years of life: the ages at which a child could turn over, sit up, stand up, walk without support, and eruption of the first tooth. The mean age of attaining each developmental milestone was not significantly different among the Jewish ethnic groups represe…
