Mismatch between perceived and actual overweight in diabetic and non-diabetic populations
Diabetes is more common in South Asian (defined here as Indian, Pakistani and Bangladeshi origin) populations compared with Europeans. This may be related to their greater abdominal obesity. 1 Weight loss and maintenance are crucial in the prevention of noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus and motivation to loose weight is likely to be greater in those who perceive themselves as being overweight. We compared self perception of body weight using…

The natural history of asthma in childhood
The incidence and prognosis of childhood asthma and wheezing illness (AW) was studied using data obtained at ages 7, 11, and 16 from a national cohort of 8806 children born in 1958. By the age of 16, 24.7% were reported to have experienced at least one episode of AW. In 18.3% AW had started before the age of 8, but only 4.2% continued to have symptoms in later childhood. A further 3.6% began to have AW between the ages of 8 and 11, and 2.8% began…
Reading attainment and physical development after whooping cough
Anthropometric measurements were made on 360 primary school children with a history of whooping cough and on 711 controls. Altogether 245 (68%) cases and 469 (66%) controls had taken tests of reading attainment and a smaller number had taken tests of intelligence. No significant differences were found between cases and controls in any of the anthropometric measurements nor in reading age or intelligence quotient after controlling for social class…
Study on some genetic traits of Tibetans at Chandragiri, district Ganjam, Orissa
The incidence of ABH secretion, dry cerumen, ear‐lobe attachment, hand clasping, arm‐folding, and digital hair, occipital hair whorl and relative length of first and second toes is reported for Tibetan refugees. In those traits for which comparative data are available, they resemble Mongoloid rather than Caucasoid populations
ABO blood groups, PTC tasting and dermatoglyphics of Tibetans at Chandragiri, Orissa
ABO blood groups and PTC taste tests determined on 230 Tibetan refugees, and finger print patterns of the 184 males among them, indicate their essential Asiatic Mongoloid affinity
