The Albright hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO) is an autosomal dominant disorder. AHO is characterized by obesity, round facies, short stature, brachydactyly, subcutaneous calcifications, mental retardation in some cases, hypocalcaemia, elevated serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) level and parathyroid hyperplasia.
It is rampant in all races, in both genders, and across all ages. It would be mistake as well to believe that race and social class do not matter. The prevalence of significant obesity (body mass index over 30) in the U.S. population is 29% for Caucasians, 34% for Hispanics and 40% for African Americans. Fully 78% of African American females are overweight or obese.
