The association of HL-A-B8 and childhood celiac disease in an Israeli population.

The frequency of histocompatibility antigens (HL-A) was studied in 33 children with celiac disease. HL-A-B8 phenotype was detected in 27.3% of the celiac patients and 7.5% of 395 carefully matched control subjects (X2 for heterogeneity=14.23; P less than 10(-4)). HL-A typing, especially in children, is advocated both as a diagnostic and a prognostic measure. The importance of ethnically matched control subjects is discussed together with a proposal for the construction of such control groups.

Relationship of the maxillary central incisors and canines to the incisive papilla.

Four hundred and thirty dentulous casts in normal alignment and Angle's Class I Relationship were examined. The results indicated a relationship between arch shape and the incisive papilla. The suggestion is made that in the preliminary location of the anterior teeth during construction of full dentures, the average distance of incisors and canines from the incisive papilla could be used as starting points.
