Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disease prevalent among non‐Ashkenazi Jews, Armenians, Arabs, and Turks. The Bedouin are nomad Arab tribes residing in desert margins of the Middle East and Arabia. FMF is quite rare in Bedouins, and here we report on two Bedouin...
Fragile X syndrome is the leading form of hereditary mental retardation, but the condition is still underdiagnosed in young children. Because of concern that the fragile X phenotype is subtle in young boys and therefore contributes to underdiagnosis of the disorder, we evaluated 73 boys (36 with...

Holt‐Oram syndrome (HOS) is an autosomal dominant syndrome that comprises upper limb and cardiac defects. The gene responsible for HOS, TBX5, was isolated and many mutations have been identified in HOS patients. We analyzed 11 Chinese HOS patients (7 from three families and 4 sporadic cases)...
