Comparison of ultrasound examination and intravenous urography after a urinary tract infection.
The results of ultrasound examination and intravenous urography after a urinary infection were compared in 100 children. Thirty seven had an abnormality on urography, but in 12 this was not seen on ultrasound. One of these had renal scarring, the remainder only minor abnormalities.

Muscular dystrophy in an X; 1 translocation female suggests that Duchenne locus is on X chromosome short arm.
A unique combination of a Duchenne-like muscular dystrophy in a girl with a translocation-inversion rearrangement involving an X chromosome and a no 1 chromosome appeared as a result of both gene mutation and chromosome mutation in the mother. The X-autosome rearrangement would permit full expression of an X-linked recessive gene, such as that for Duchenne muscular dystrophy, in a female, and this would satisfactorily explain the characteristic Duchenne-like course of our patient's illness. The simultaneous de novo appearance of the Duchenne mutation and the X;1 rearrange suggests possible sites for the Duchenne locus on the X chromosome short arm (at Xp1106 or Xp2107).
