The mutant in a family with autosomal-dominant spastic paresis in Northern Tibet was mapped by linkage analysis with several microsatellite markers to a gene locus at 14q11.2-q24.3, an area to which a few mutants leading to a condition with similar clinical signs have previously been mapped. The mutant observed in this pedigree probably arose de novo. Gene loci at 2p21-p24 and 15q, which have been found for other pedigrees with dominant spastic paresis, were excluded. The data in this pedigree do not contradict the hypothesis proposed by another group that there might be anticipation.

The primary HIV infection is the period of time following HIV inoculation. Its manifestations are diverse. We present here some clinical cases: a mononucleosis-like syndrome with fever, angina, lymphadenopathy and skin rash, a frequent picture, with among other signs, flu-like symptoms, lymphocytic meningitis and facial paresis. In presence of those nonspecific clinical pictures, it is important for the primary health care physician to consider primary HIV infection, detect a history of exposure and order HIV-tests including p24-antigenemia. On one side, an early treatment blocks replication and dissemination of HIV in the body and brings an amelioration of prognosis. On the other side, the patient is particularly infectious during this phase and should take appropriate preventive measures.
