Nutritional influence on childhood development and genetic control of adolescent growth of Quechuas and Mestizos from the Peruvian Lowlands
The growth in height of 1,202 Quechua and Mestizo children aged 6 to 19 years of the province of Lamas in the Peruvian Eastern Lowlands was studied. As shown by evaluations of ABO, Rh systems, and skin reflectance measurements, the Quechuas are genetically different from the Mestizos. The heights of Quechuas and Mestizos were matched for nutritional status based on measurements of subcutaneous fat and body muscle. The study indicates that: (1) du…
Prenatal selection and dermatoglyphic patterns
Although human dermatoglyphics have been extensively studied, little is known of the prenatal origins of dermatoglyphic patterns. Digital patterns, i.e., loops, whorls, and arches, were obtained from 81 human abortuses, ranging in age from 11 to 25 weeks post‐fertilization. Patterns were discernible with the earliest indications of epidermal ridge development. Findings indicate that pattern frequencies during early prenatal development differ fro…
Prenatal origins of brachymesophalangia‐5
As shown in 91 embryos and fetuses in the 41–235 mm crown‐rump length, brachymesophalangia‐5 may be identified in prenatal time. Although the ratios involving different combinations of length of mid‐5 relative to other segments yield different frequencies of BMP‐5, the short middle segment of the little finger is already associated with clinodactyly and developmental eccentricity as early as the ninth week of prenatal development
Prenatal origins of carpal fusions
As shown in 138 embryos and fetuses in the 40–285 mm crownrump length range, carpal and carpal‐metacarpal “fusions” arise from incomplete separation of the cartilaginous precursors rather than from failure of initiation, thus accounting for the “fusions” seen in postnatal radiographs and the grooves that are evident enough in adult fusions. Radiographs selected from over 20,000 apparently normal individuals provide postnatal counterparts for the …
Early prenatal attainment of adult metacarpal‐phalangeal rankings and proportions
As shown in 56 human embryos and fetuses between 15 and 104 mm in crown‐rump length, “adult” metacarpal‐phalangeal length rankings are attained by the seventh intrauterine week and near‐adult bone‐to‐bone ratios or proportions by the thirteenth week. Micrometric measurements of optically‐projected histological hand sections show relative elongation of the distals between the 15–29 mm and 30–44 mm crown‐rump range, and relative reduction to radiog…
Male advancement in prenatal hand development
Male advancement in the developing hand was evidenced by 66 grossly and microscopically normal embryos in the 15–75 mm crown‐rump range. Male advancement was particularly pronounced in the younger (15–30 mm) embryos, both in the proximal hand region including the round bones of the wrist and in the distal hand region, comprising the metacarpals and phalanges. Thirty‐four additional embryos, abnormal in implantation or development or representing …
