Analyzing sibship correlations in birth weight using large sibships from Norway.

Genetic epidemiology - 1 Jan 1997

Beaty T H, Skjaerven R, Breazeale D R, Liang K Y

Abstract excerpt

Data from the Medical Birth Registry of Norway were used to estimate sibship correlations in large sibships (each with > or = 5 infants among singleton live births surviving the first year of life), while adjusting for covariates such as infant gender, gestational age, maternal age, parity, and time since last pregnancy. This sample of 12,356 full sibs in 2,462 sibships born in Norway between 1968 and 1989 was...
