Duplication of 16p from insertion of 16p into 16q with subsequent duplication due to crossing over within the inserted segment.

Two members of a large family had a similar multiple congenital anomalies mental retardation (MCA/MR) syndrome and an identical aberration of chromosome 16. Their mothers, who are first cousins, had a different abnormality of one chromosome 16, which appeared to be an acrocentric. We interpret these findings as an insertion of a segment of 16p into 16q. following a three-break rearrangement and meiotic crossing over. The two abnormal children have a duplication of 16p11 leads to p13. The clinical manifestations of these patients differ from those of previously reported cases of dup(16p).

The magazine picture collage: development of an objective scoring system.

A system for objectively scoring the magazine picture collage was developed and applied to the collages of 12 psychiatric inpatients and 12 paired controls. As a group, the patient collages had fewer cuttings, tended to lack an overall balance and central theme, and contained fewer pictures of people and more of animals. The results are consistent with those reported by other researchers as well as with general clinical experience, and as such, lend support to the construct validity of the scoring system.
