Abstract:

SummaryThe present cross-sectional study was done in order to illustrate the prevalence and types of consanguineous marriages among Afghanistan populations. Data on types of marriages were collected using a simple questionnaire. The total number of couples in the study was 7140 from the following provinces: Badakhshan, Baghlan, Balkh, Bamyan, Kabul, Kunduz, Samangan and Takhar. Consanguineous marriages were classified by the degree of relationship between couples: double first cousins, first cousins, first cousins once removed, second cousins and beyond second cousins. The coefficient of inbreeding (F) was calculated for each couple and the mean coefficient of inbreeding (α) estimated for each population. The proportion of consanguineous marriages in the country was 46.2%, ranging from 38.2% in Kabul province to 51.2% in Bamyan province. The equivalent mean inbreeding coefficient (α) was 0.0277, and ranged from 0.0221 to 0.0293 in these two regions. There were significant differences between provinces for frequencies of different types of marriages (p<0.001). First cousin marriages (27.8%) were the most common type of consanguineous marriages, followed by double first cousin (6.9%), second cousin (5.8%), beyond second cousin (3.9%) and first cousin once removed (1.8%). There were significant differences between ethnic groups for the types of marriages (χ2=177.6, df=25, p<0.001). Tajiks (Soni) and Turkmens (also Pashtuns) showed the lowest (α=0.0250) and highest (α=0.0297) mean inbreeding coefficients, respectively, among the ethnic groups in Afghanistan. The study shows that Afghanistan's populations, like other Islamic populations, have a high level of consanguinity.

Abstract:

SummaryThe prevalence of consanguinity in eight provinces of Afghanistan has recently been reported by Saify & Saadat (2012). The present cross-sectional study was done in order to illustrate the prevalence and types of consanguineous marriages among other populations of Afghanistan. Data on types of marriages were collected using a simple questionnaire. The total number of couples in this study was 5200 from the following provinces: Farah, Ghazni, Herat, Hilmand, Kabul, Kandahar, Logar, Parwan and Wardak. Consanguineous marriages were classified by the degree of relationship between couples: double first cousins, first cousins, first cousins once removed, second cousins and beyond second cousins. The coefficient of inbreeding (F) was calculated for each couple and the mean coefficient of inbreeding (α) estimated for each population. The α in the country was 0.0226, ranging from 0.0203 in Farah province to 0.0246 in Herat province. There were significant differences between provinces for frequencies of different types of marriages (p<0.001). First cousin marriages (21.7%) were the most common type of consanguineous marriages, followed by second cousins (16.0%), first cousins once removed (14.0%), beyond second cousins (6.9%) and double first cousins (1.6%). There was significant difference between ethnic groups for the types of marriages (p<0.001). Tajiks (Soni) and Sadats showed the lowest (α=0.0215) and highest (α=0.0242) levels of consanguinity among ethnic groups in Afghanistan, respectively. The present study shows that the Afghani populations, the same as other Islamic populations, have high levels of consanguinity.

Abstract:

Recent research on kin investment shows a matrilateral bias as a function of paternity uncertainty. Kin investment, however, is a special case of kin altruism. We thus hypothesize that psychological adaptations have evolved to regulate cousin-directed altruism according to predictably variable levels of paternity uncertainty in different categories of cousins. We develop a formal mathematical model that predicts that individuals should be most willing to act altruistically towards their mother's sister's (MoSis) children and least willing to act altruistically towards their father's brother's (FaBro) children. Altruism towards father's sister's (FaSis) and mother's brother's (MoBro) children are predicted to fall in between. An empirical study ( N =195), assessing expressed altruistic proclivities, confirmed the predictions from the model. Participants expressed willingness-to-help following the descending order: (i) MoSis children, (ii) MoBro children, (iii) FaSis children, and (iv) FaBro children. The psychological variables of emotional closeness, empathic concern and contact frequency showed precisely the same pattern across distinct cousins, providing convergent confirmation of the model. The results support the hypothesis of cousin-specific adaptations sensitive to varying probabilities of paternity uncertainty.

Abstract:

SummaryIn genetics, a consanguineous marriage means union between couples who are related as second cousins or closer. The present cross-sectional study was carried out in order to illustrate the prevalence and types of consanguineous marriages in the Shi'a population living in widespread territories in Lebanon including the Bekaa Valley, the south of Lebanon and the southern suburb of Beirut. Data on types of marriages were collected using a simple questionnaire. The total number of couples in the study was 1203. Consanguineous marriage was classified by the degree of relationship between couples. The overall frequency of consanguinity was found to be 28.4%, with first cousin marriages (21.3%) being the most common type followed by first cousins once removed (5.5%), then double first cousins (0.8%). The frequencies of second cousin and beyond second cousin marriages were the same at 0.4% of all the marriages. The mean inbreeding coefficient (α) was estimated at about 0.0161 for the population. There were no significant differences between the three studied territories for frequencies of different types of marriages (p>0.1), nor were there significant differences between the rural and urban areas (p>0.1).

Abstract:

SummaryConsanguineous marriage is the union of individuals having at least one common ancestor. The present cross-sectional study was done in order to illustrate the prevalence and types of consanguineous marriages in the Syrian Arab Republic. Data on consanguineous marriages were collected using a simple questionnaire. The total number of couples in this study was 67,958 (urban areas: 36,574 couples; rural areas: 31,384 couples) from the following provinces: Damascus, Hamah, Tartous, Latakia, Al Raqa, Homs, Edlep and Aleppo. In each province urban and rural areas were surveyed. Consanguineous marriage was classified by the degree of relationship between couples: double first cousins (F=1/8), first cousins (F=1/16), second cousins (F=1/64) and beyond second cousins (F<1/64). The coefficient of inbreeding (F) was calculated for each couple and the mean coefficient of inbreeding (α) estimated for the population of each province, stratified by rural and urban areas. The results showed that the overall frequency of consanguinity was 30.3% in urban and 39.8% in rural areas. Total rate of consanguinity was found to be 35.4%. The equivalent mean inbreeding coefficient (α) was 0.0203 and 0.0265 in urban and rural areas, respectively. The mean proportion of consanguineous marriages ranged from 67.5% in Al Raqa province to 22.1% in Latakia province. The α-value ranged from 0.0358 to 0.0127 in these two provinces, respectively. The western and north-western provinces (including Tartous, Lattakia and Edlep) recorded lower levels of inbreeding than the central, northern and southern provinces. The overall α-value was estimated to be about 0.0236 for the studied populations. First cousin marriages (with 20.9%) were the most common type of consanguineous marriages, followed by double first cousin (with 7.8%) and second cousin marriages (with 3.3%), and beyond second cousin was the least common type.

Abstract:

The effects of inbreeding in humans on the intelligence has been investigated in the present study of offsprings of second cousin matings (F= 0.0156, n=138 male, 132 female), first cousins once removed (F= 0.03125, n=148 male, 138 female), first cousins (F= 0.0625, n=161 male, 151 female), and unrelated (F= 0, n= 194 male, 182 female) among North Indian Muslims. The Weschler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-R)-74 was given to the children in the both groups. An overall significant (p<0.001) reduction of means has been observed in inbred series. The results of this study confirm the appreciable inbreeding depression especially among the offspring of first cousins. Asia Pac J Public Health 2004; 16(2): 99-103.

Abstract:

Les Musulmans bengalis sont, pour la plupart, des descendants de convertis d’origine hindoue. De ce fait, la structure de la parenté n’est pas, chez eux, très différente de celle qui prévaut chez leurs voisins hindous d’aujourd’hui : on observe dans les deux cas un modèle cognatique qui produit une parentèle très élargie, excluant d’emblée toute forme de mariage entre cousins, aussi bien parallèles que croisés. On est toutefois surpris de constater, à l’examen de nos matériaux recueillis dans deux villages du Bengale de l’Ouest, que seuls les mariages entre cousins parallèles sont déconsidérés par les Musulmans bengalis. À l’inverse, le mariage avec la cousine croisée matrilatérale est non seulement permis, mais recommandé au nom d’un idéal assez vague d’hypogamie qui en sous-tend la pratique. Cependant, cette formule n’aboutit jamais à la constitution de cycles d’alliance. Celle-ci reste au contraire très dispersée, mais les liens à court terme qu’elle produit sont un facteur d’intégration de la société musulmane bengalie qui se serait sans doute beaucoup plus segmentée si les mariages entre cousins parallèles avaient été la norme. Cette hypothèse trouve une preuve dans la position intermédiaire du mariage avec la cousine croisée patrilatérale qui, tout en créant la même intégration que son homologue matrilatéral, se rapproche de la formule du mariage entre cousins parallèles du point de vue économique : il permet au patrilignage de récupérer à la seconde génération la dot qui, dans ce cas, est la seule prestation pertinente.

Abstract:

In 1971, Harold Cousins published an essay explaining the sculptures that he had begun creating in the mid-1950s, following his relocation in October 1949 from New York to Paris. Cousins described his series named Plaiton, his own neologism combining the English word plate with the French word laiton (brass). This linguistic combination paralleled Cousins’s description of himself as a “sculptor-welder,” a practice that grew from experiments in oxyacetylene welding while studying in Paris with funding from the GI Bill. Providing the first scholarly analysis of sculptor Cousins’s rich career, this article recovers the artist’s early biography through family archives, including correspondence and period criticism. It then examines Cousins’s early artwork and his own description of his artistic practice culminating in Plaiton. Finally, it considers Cousins’s 1950s sculptures, particularly Plaiton Suspendu, and speculates on its relation to his later work. In considering Cousins’s sculpture in relation to racial constructions of the immediate postwar period, I draw on prior scholarship focused on postwar African American artists in Paris. I also look to studies of the ways Black artists employed abstraction—histories that often begin in the mid-1960s or 1970s. In examining the mid-1950s Plaiton works, I hope to both bring Cousins and his work back to visibility and suggest that this history actually began substantially earlier.

Abstract:

From 626 ascendant genealogies, known as ‘birth briefs’, deposited by members of the Society of Genealogists in their London library, rates of consanguineous marriage and coefficients of mean inbreeding (α) of offspring were estimated for cohorts of marriages contracted in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The rate of first cousin marriage in the generation estimated to have married during the 1920s was 0·32%, with no marriages between second cousins. The mean inbreeding coefficient for the offspring of these marriages was estimated as 0·0002. In the previous generation 1·12% of the marriages were between first cousins, and the estimate of mean inbreeding was 0·0007. Comparison with data taken from the published literature suggests that the levels of cousin marriage observed are consistent with a secular decline during the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

Abstract:

SummarySeveral studies have indicated that consanguineous marriages (unions between biologically related persons) are associated with increased risk of autosomal recessive diseases and several multifactorial traits. Mandaeans are a closed ethno-religious community living in areas of southern Iraq and Iran (Khuzestan Province). There are currently no data on the prevalence of consanguineous marriages among Mandaeans. The present study was carried out in 2016 to determine the prevalence of consanguinity among Iranian Mandaeans living in Khuzestan Province, south-west Iran. A total of 137 couples (urban areas: 79 couples; rural areas: 58 couples) were included in the study. Information on the consanguineous marriages of the subjects was collected through direct interviews. Marriages were classified by the degree of relationship between couples as double first cousins, first cousins, first cousin once removed, second cousins and unrelated marriages. The coefficient of inbreeding (F) was calculated for each couple and the mean coefficient of inbreeding (α) estimated for the population, stratified by rural and urban areas. The overall frequency of consanguinity was found to be 50.7% in urban and 86.2% in rural areas. There was a significant difference between rural and urban areas in types of marriages (χ2=24.8, df=4, p<0.001) and first cousin marriages (51.8%) were the most common type. The overall α-value was estimated to be 0.0363 for the Iranian Mandaean population.

Abstract:

According to inclusive fitness theory, people are more willing to help those they are genetically related to because relatives share a kin altruism gene and are able to pass it along. We tested this theory by examining the effect of reproductive potential on altruism. Participants read hypothetical scenarios and chose between cousins (Studies 1 and 2) and cousins and friends (Study 3) to help with mundane chores or a life-or-death rescue. In life-or-death situations, participants were more willing to help a cousin preparing to conceive rather than adopt a child (Study 1) and a cousin with high rather than low chance of reproducing (Studies 2 and 3). Patterns in the mundane condition were less consistent. Emotional closeness also contributed to helping intentions (Studies 1 and 2). By experimentally manipulating reproductive potential while controlling for genetic relatedness and emotional closeness, we provide a demonstration of the direct causal effects of reproductive potential on helping intentions, supporting the inclusive fitness explanation of kin altruism.

Abstract:

In this paper I discuss the work of two French authors who advocate a “scientific” exegesis of sacred scriptures: physician Maurice Bucaille (1922–1998) and religious leader Claude Vorilhon (alias Raël, b. 1946). Bucaille argues that the Qur’an’s divine origin is demonstrated by its accuracy about natural phenomena and “scientific facts,” whereas the Bible does not stand up to “scientific” examination. Vorilhon supposedly received a revelation regarding the creation of humanity by an alien race, the Elohim. Part and parcel of such revelation is a biblical exegesis that identifies, in numerous passages of the Old and New Testaments, allusions to the Elohim’s technological interventions in the history of humanity. I argue here that despite apparent differences, these textual strategies—blending “science” and scriptures—display substantial similarities, and that they are influenced by narrative and philosophical patterns deeply rooted in French culture.

Abstract:

This paper aims to investige about congenital diseases are an absolute risk in all types of cousin marriages. Methods: this review is a review of literature on cousin marriages and congenital diseases in cousin marriages, as well as qualitative research conducted on the Mandailing community in the village of Tanjung Baringin, North Sumatra, which practices many cross-breed cousins. Results show the risk of the illness impacted by cousin marriage, is not an absolute negative impact on all cousin pairs. A parallel cousin has a great chance to experience it. This can be proved by some researchers who investige health risks in populations that practices parallel cousin marriage. In cross-cousin pairs did not find any health risks. Therefore, cousin marriage still exixtsnce until now, especially in cross cousin marriage.

Abstract:

Résumé La correspondance entre la marquise de Sévigné et son cousin le comte de Bussy forme un ensemble équilibré de plus de trois cents lettres, réparties sur quarante-six années, ensemble qu'on souhaiterait pouvoir lire dans une commode édition séparée. Très tôt les deux cousins ont mutuellement apprécié la qualité de leur écriture épistolaire, et se sont déclaré l'un à l'autre le plaisir qu'ils prenaient à s'écrire, et à entendre les finesses de leur dialogue. Leur longue dispute, née du refus par la marquise d'un prêt d'argent à son cousin, et du portrait satirique inséré par celui-ci dans l' Histoire amoureuse des Gaules , a été l'occasion de lettres au ton violent mais écrites avec soin, où l'affrontement traduit aussi une rivalité dans le maniement de la plume. Au cours du va-et-vient épistolaire, c'est en général Mme de Sévigné qui a l'initiative et montre la voie, tandis que Bussy répond, c'est-à-dire commente ou critique les formules de sa cousine, dans lesquelles il admire non seulement le naturel mais aussi les tours singuliers et les traits de maître . Aussi était-il assuré de plaire au roi, lorsqu'il lui fit connaître, en les insérant dans un fragment manuscrit de ses propres mémoires, quelques-unes des lettres qu'il avait reçues de la marquise.

Questions in an interview with United Kingdom filmmaker Mark Cousins concern the formal properties and development of nonfiction films taking the shape of essays, rather than documentaries. The relationship between Orson Welles’s films and his lifelong habit of drawing is the subject of Cousin’s latest essay film, The Eyes of Orson Welles. As the interview progresses, the subject shifts to relationships among the arts and the creative process.

Abstract:

Background Children of consanguineous parents have a higher risk of infant and childhood mortality, morbidity and intellectual and developmental disability. Methods Using a prospective UK based longitudinal family cohort study we quantify differences according to the consanguinity status of children from birth to age 10 in mortality, health care usage, two health and three educational outcomes. Results Compared to children whose parents were not related children whose parents were first cousins were more likely to die by the age of 10 years (odds ratio 2.81, 95% CI 1.82-4.35) to have higher rates of primary care appointments (incident rate ratio 1.39, 95% CI 1.34-1.45) and more prescriptions (incident rate ratio 1.61, 95% CI 1.50-1.73). Rates of hospital accident and emergency attendance (incident rate ratio 1.21,95% CI 1.12-1.30) and hospital outpatients’ appointments (incident rate ratio 2.21,95% CI 1.90-2.56) are higher. Children whose parents are first cousins have higher rates of speech/ language development difficulties (odds ratio 1.63, 95% CI 1.36-1.96) and learning difficulties (odds ratio 1.89, 95% CI 1.28-2.81). When they begin school children whose parents are first cousins are less likely to reach phonics standards (odds ratio 0.73, 95% CI 0.63-0.84) and less likely to show a good level of development (odds ratio 0.61, 95% CI 0.54-0.68). At age 10 there are higher numbers with special educational needs who are from first cousin unions when compared to all children whose parents are not blood relations (odds ratio 1.38, 95% CI 1.20-1.58). Effect sizes for consanguinity status are similar in univariable and multivariable models where a range of control variables including deprivation are added. Conclusions There is higher childhood mortality and greater use of health care as well as higher rates of learning difficulties, speech and language development challenges and substantive differences in education outcomes in children whose parents are first cousins

Abstract:

This cross-sectional study was carried out to examine the pattern and prevalence of congenital malformation/ genetic disorders among the offspring of consanguineous marriages in Quetta, Pakistan. A survey was conducted among 105 married couples from different areas of Quetta city. 89 out of 105 consanguineous couples were related as first cousins, followed by second cousin (n=16) and third cousin (n=6) couples. Consanguineous marriages were common among women who were illiterate (43.8%) and unemployed (87.6%). Highest number of child mortality (61.9%) and abnormalities (32.1%) were observed among the children of first cousin marriages. The most common congenital malformation /genetic disorders were mental retardation (24.13%), followed by diabetes (10.3%), deafness (6.8%) and thalassemia (6.8%). Among all the inter-related marriages, first cousin marriages are at highest risk to have babies with congenital anomalies.

Abstract:

SummaryThe population of Robinson Crusoe Island is estimated at 633 inhabitants. The current population has a common origin from the first eight families who colonized the island at the end of the 19th century. The objective of this study was to determine the rates of consanguinity, the average coefficients of inbreeding, the types of consanguineous marriages and the inbreeding evolution between 1900 and 2000 on the island. All marriages registered on the island, from the last colonization until 2000 (417 in total), were included in the analysis. In addition, extended genealogies were obtained. The consanguinity rate was 14.9% and the average coefficient of inbreeding (α) 54.05×10–4. The most frequent type of consanguineous marriages was between second cousins, followed by first cousins. The average value of the first/second cousin ratio was 1.11. The population of Robinson Crusoe Island has a high rate of inbreeding. The unique characteristic of the island – its small current population, originating from just a few families, with small rate of gene flow – could explain the observed high and increasing consanguinity.
