Left-handedness and inheritance of bronchial asthma.

Perceptual and motor skills - 1 Apr 2000

Andreou G, Karapetsas A, Gourgoulianis K I, Molyvdas P A

Abstract excerpt

A statistically significant difference in mean laterality quotients of 15 asthmatic and 106 nonasthmatic children showed a coexistence of left-handedness and asthma early in life. It is suggested that this phenomenon is not only a fetal event as the Geschwind-Galaburda hypothesis claims but it is mainly based on maternal line inheritance.
