Abstract

Phenotypic variability in children with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) was investigated with respect to variable expression of the contiguous gene syndrome and trait variance. In a prospective study, parent/child resemblance of anthropometric and psychometric measures was analyzed in 22 children with PWS (11 females and 11 males; 18 deletions, 4 uniparental disomy (UPD)) and in a control group (88 females and 88 males). The average child-midparent Z-score difference for height in females was –1.9 and in males –0.9, head circumference –1.
