Genetic linkage analysis of the carpal tunnel syndrome.
Two generations of a family with autosomal dominant carpal tunnel syndrome were studied for genetic linkage to 20 informative polymorphic blood markers. No linkage was demonstrated between the syndrome and the markers tested; exclusion of close linkage (lod score less than -2.0) was found for MNSs, ACP, GALT, GPT, GLO, Hp, Gc, and Pi.
