"Unjust"? Should that be "adjustment"? --belg4mit 18.124.2.224 23:37, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

I took out "Apparently, many enjoy pulling hair.". It sounds too condescending, almost as if the patients are being riduculed. Also, such a statement is not characteristic of an encylopedia entry.

[edit] De Novo mutation origins

The article as currently written claims that in de novo cases of 5p- deletion, the de novo mutation is of paternal origin in about 80% of the cases. Is there a cite to a reputable study for this statistic? In the case of a de novo mutation, how do you determine whether it was of maternal or paternal origin anyway? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.118.231.156 (talk) 02:07, 12 February 2007 (UTC).
