[Incidence of cystic fibrosis in Brittany (author's transl)].

Incidence of cystic fibrosis has been estimated in three adjacent geographic areas of Brittany: North Finistere, South Finistere and Morbihan. This incidence is respectively 6.0 x 10(-4), 4.8 x 10(-4), 2.9 x 10(-4) in these three areas. A significant difference between North Finistere and Morbihan was found. Without proofs in favor of natural selection, genetic drift seems to be a possible explanation of this variation. Moreover, as in other studies, a genetic heterogeneity of the disease was not shown.

Cystic fibrosis and HLA.

In 94 children suffering from cystic fibrosis, no abnormal frequencies of HLA markers of the A and B locus were observed in comparison with the distribution of these antigens in control series. Furthermore, the HLA genotypes of seven pairs of diseased sibs are incompatible with the hypothesis of a closed linkage between CF--an autosomal recessive transmitted disease--and HLA.
