Example sentences for: probands

How can you use “probands” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Increased absolute frequencies of A*01-B*60, A*02-B*39, A*02-B*62, A*03-B*13, A*03-B*15, A*03-B*27, A*03-B*44, A*03-B*47, and A*03-B*57 were detected in the present cohort of Alabama hemochromatosis probands, but these haplotypes have not been reported to occur with increased absolute frequency in other hemochromatosis populations.

  • Homozygosity for these haplotypes was observed in some probands: A*01-B*08 (n = 1); A*02-B*07 (n = 1); A*02-B*44 (n = 1); and A*03-B*07 (n = 12).

  • After performing the Bonferroni corrections, the frequency of A*02-B*44 alone was significantly increased in probands ( p < 0.0085) (Table 4).

  • Some probands were homozygous for B alleles by DNA-based typing and family studies: B*07 (n = 13), B*08 (n = 3), B*37 (n = 1), B*44 (n = 2), and B*51 (n = 1).

  • Population-based studies of SAH probands show that 7 to 10% have a family history of IA, a higher percentage than previously appreciated [ 1 19 20 ] . These familial IA (FIA) families have no signs of any other simple Mendelian disorders predisposing to IA, supporting the possibility that some or all IAs have a genetic component, and that FIA is a genetic disease separate and apart from previously defined diseases.
