  • Similarly, the frequency of A*03 positivity was significantly increased in Alabama hemochromatosis probands diagnosed before the discovery of HFE [ 21 ] . These observations are consistent with and extend the findings of 21 previously reported case-controlled studies from thirteen countries which demonstrate the significantly increased prevalence of A*03 in persons with hemochromatosis [ 16 ] . The alleles B*07 and B*14 were also more common in the present Alabama probands and in Alabama probands diagnosed before discovery of HFE than in corresponding control subjects [ 21 ] . The present analysis demonstrates that this is attributable largely to the association of B*07 and B*14 with A*03, consistent with observations in persons with hemochromatosis patients from many locations, including Ireland [ 6 ] , Brittany [ 2 32 33 34 ] , Denmark [ 7 8 ] , Sweden [ 9 35 36 ] , Germany [ 10 11 37 38 ] , Portugal [ 30 39 ] , Italy [ 2 40 ] , and Utah [ 20 ] .

  • The frequencies of the A*03-B*14 haplotype were significantly increased in persons with hemochromatosis in Brittany, Sweden, Utah, and Alabama (Table 5) [ Additional file 3] [ 31 ] . A significantly increased absolute frequency of the haplotype A*03-B*35 occurred in Alabama probands and in hemochromatosis patients in Italy [ 29 ] . A significantly increased frequency of the haplotype A*03-B*15 was observed in the present Alabama hemochromatosis probands; a relative increase in this haplotype was detected in hemochromatosis cohorts in Brittany and Utah [ 2 20 ] . A significantly increased frequency of the haplotype A*03-B*44 was observed in the present Alabama hemochromatosis probands, whereas a relative increase in this haplotype was reported in hemochromatosis cohorts in Sweden, Brittany, and Utah only after "correction" of the data for the preponderance of other haplotypes (Table 5) [ Additional file 3] [ 31 ] . The increased frequencies of the A*01-B*60, A*02-B*39, A*02-B*62, A*03-B*13, A*03-B*27, A*03-B*47, and A*03-B*57 haplotypes observed in Alabama probands in the present study were not reported in persons with hemochromatosis in the seven other countries for which data were available (Table 5) [ Additional file 3] [ 31 ] .

  • We compared the present results with data in a previously published tabulation of A and B haplotypes which occurred with significantly greater frequency in hemochromatosis patients than in corresponding control patients; data were available from Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Brittany, Portugal, Italy, Australia, and Utah (Table 5) [ Additional file 3] [ 16 ] [ 31 ] . Frequencies of the A*03-B*07 haplotype were increased in all hemochromatosis patient groups.

  • In your letter, you mentioned Navajo and Breton (the Celtic language of Brittany); coincidentally, this morning I got a letter from a colleague who has published an extensive dictionary of Hopi and is working with educators to help Hopi children learn their ancestral language.

  • The country offers plenty of outdoor enjoyment, too: swimming and other water sports, or just sunbathing, on Alpine lakes, on the beaches of Normandy and Brittany, or at the famous resorts of the Côte d’Azur; first-class skiing in the Alps and Pyrénées; canoeing down spectacular gorges; and marvelous hiking around the country’s national parks and nature reserves.
