Dermatoglifos en dos poblaciones indígenas Guaymí de Costa Rica
(Revista de Biología Tropical 31(2) p.268-257, 1983-04-27)
Twenty-three palmar and digital dermatogliphic characters were examined in two Guaymi Amerindian
populations, Abrojo and Limoncito, in southeastern Costa Rica. Derrnatogliphs were analyzed in
relation to sex, bilaterality ...
Global genetic variation at nine short tandem repeat loci and implications on forensic genetics
(European Journal of Human Genetics (2003) 11, 39 – 49, 2003-01)
We have studied genetic variation at nine autosomal short tandem repeat loci in 20 globally distributed
human populations defined by geographic and ethnic origins, viz., African, Caucasian, Asian, Native
American and ...

The oxidative metabolism of sparteine in the Cuna Amerindians of Panama: Absence of evidence for defient metabolizers
(1988-04-20)
Sparteine sulfate (50 mg) was administered to 170 Cuna Amerindians, 142 of whom were unrelated, and the drug and its dehydrometabolites were determined in the 0- to 12-hour urine samples. The log10 of the metabolic ratio ...
A novel myosin heavy chain gene in human chromosome 19q13.3
(Gene: 312 p. 165-171, 2003-07)
A human myosin heavy chain gene was identified in chromosome 19q13 by computational sequence analysis, RT-PCR and DNA
sequencing of the cDNA. The complete cDNA has a length of 6786 bp and comprises 41 exons (40 coding) ...
Phenylketonuria in Costa Rica: preliminary spectrum of PAH mutations and their associations with highly polymorphic haplotypes
(1996)
A preliminary evaluation of the molecular basis of phenylketonuria (PKU) in Costa Rica was made by performing mutational analyses in the six PKU families identified to date. These studies revealed the presence of the ...

Se efectuó un estudio de la consanguinidad en las cuatro provincias centrales de Costa Rica (Alajuela, Cartago, Heredia y San José), mediante el método genealógico, que incluyo 7822 matrimonios, en seis periodos establecidos ...
Epidemiología del cáncer de cuello uterino en Costa Rica, 1980-1983
(1988)
Las tasas de cáncer de cuello uterino varían mucho entre los países y frecuentemente dentro de una misma población, según las diferentes comunidades que la forman. Entre los países que presentan mayores tasas de incidencia ...
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease: a novel Tyr145Ser mutation in the myelin protein zero (MPZ, P0) gene causes different phenotypes in homozygous and heterozygous carriers within one family
(Neurogenetics : 4 (4) p. 191-197, 2003-07-05)
Abstract. Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type IB (CMT 1B) is caused by mutations in the gene
coding for peripheral myelin protein zero (MPZ, P0) that plays a fundamental role in adhesion
and compaction of peripheral myelin. ...
Blood Group, Red Cell, and Serum Protein Variation in the Cabecar and Huetar, Two Chibchan Amerindian Tribes of Costa Rica
(American Journal Human Biology ;13 (1): p. 57-64, 2001)
Genetic variation, using blood groups and red cell and serum proteins, was surveyed in the Cabecar of Chirripo and the Huetar of Quitirrisi, Costa Rica. Thirty-nine loci were screened in a sample of 91 Cabecars and 40 loci ...
