We have investigated the effect of apolipoprotein (apo) E polymorphism on serum lipid, lipoprotein, and apolipoprotein levels in a sample of 195 children, aged 8-11 years, from Sezze, Central Italy. The relative frequencies of e2, e3, and e4 alleles were 0.062, 0.867, and 0.072, respectively. Variat

Apolipoprotein E phenotypes and gene frequencies were determined in 560 patients receiving long-term hemodialysis. In addition, fasting plasma lipid- and apolipoprotein-concentrations were evaluated in 245 of these individuals. The distribution of the three major apolipoprotein E alleles (epsilon 4,
Screening for coeliac disease (CD) with serum antigliadin antibodies (AGA) was performed in 1032 diabetic children and adolescents. In 8 children CD had been diagnosed before study entry. Of the remaining 1024 children, 33 had an elevated AGA titre in the first serum sample. On follow-up an elevated
