Genetic basis of common diseases: the general theory of Mendelian recessive genetics.

Medical hypotheses - 1 Jan 2005

Hutchinson Michael, Spanaki Cleanthe, Lebedev Sergey, Plaitakis Andreas

Abstract excerpt

Common diseases tend to appear sporadically, i.e., they appear in an individual who has no first or second degree relatives with the disease. Yet diseases are often associated with a slight but definite increase in risk to the children of an affected individual. This weak pattern of inheritabilit...
