Abstract excerpt

A noninvasive antibody test was used to identify male fragile X patients in special education schools, on the basis of the lack of FMRP in hair roots. We studied 300 males with mental retardation of unknown cause attending special schools. Patients were divided into two groups, based on the scores according to a fragile X check list (Group 1 </= 9 points and Group 2 >/= 10 points). Group 2 consists of 51 males...
