Prader—Willi Syndrome
Since its inception, the John F. Kennedy Center has attempted to overcome developmental problems, which create restrictive barriers to the participation of individuals with specific disabilities in our broader society. Some of Nicholas Hobbs's earliest efforts involved developing strategies for preventing children's emotional and behavior problems, which interfered with their later full participation in society. Other investigators in the Kennedy…

Characterization of Obesity in the Prader-Labhart- Willi Syndrome
A multidisciplinary study involving cytogenetic, clinical, and anthropometric assessments of Prader-Labhart-Willi Syndrome (PLWS) has focused on improving diagnosis and prognosis in this complex condition. Since one of the major features of PLWS is obesity, 7 of the 26 measurements in the anthropometric evaluation were skinfold thicknesses at different body sites. Forty individuals with PLWS have been assessed. Z-scores were computed for skinfold…

Craniofacial variation and growth in the Prader‐Labhart‐Willi syndrome
A study of anthropometric variation and craniofacial growth in individuals with the Prader‐Labhart‐Willi syndrome (PLWS) illustrates the utility of anthropometry in clinical evaluation and research. Anthropometric measurements, including head length and breadth, minimum frontal diameter, and head circumference, were obtained on 38 PLWS individuals (21 with chromosome 15 deletions) with an age range from 2 weeks to 39 years. No anthropometric diff…
Metacarpophalangeal pattern profile analysis in clinical genetics
The hand is a complex anatomical structure with the component bones susceptible to a combination of environmental and genetic factors that may affect the bone length and width. The alterations may involve a single bone or specific group of bones. The metacarpophalangeal pattern profile (MCPP) developed by Poznanski, Garn, and others (Poznanski et al. Birth Defects VIII (5): 125–131, 1972) is a graphic representation of the relative lengthening an…
