The paper describes four cases of trisomy 18 or Edwards' syndrome observed in the Pediatric Division of SS. Annunziata Hospital, Savigliano (CN) between 1/1/79 and 31/12/88. Following an illustrated description of the cases (3 males and 1 female), the epidemiological and clinical aspects of the syndrome are briefly discussed.

A mathematical model of the optokinetic reflex.

The role of the optokinetic reflex (OKR) is that of cooperating with the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) in the task of image stabilization on the retina during head rotations in a stationary visual surround. Since the dynamics of VOR was already well established, it has been possible to make a broad estimation of what the dynamics of OKR should be in order to obtain the performances observed in normal subjects. A mathematical model of OKR has been presented, and the experimental results obtained by Raphan et al. (1977) in the monkey and by Collins et al. (1970) in man were used to validate the model and to obtain a precise estimation of its parameters.
