Abstract
Family mapping is a useful tool for tracking the inheritance of rare inherited diseases, including hypophosphatasia (HPP), through generations. We show the inheritance of HPP in 6 affected families, describing genetic variants, biochemical hallmarks, and clinical manifestations among family members. Mapping families with HPP is warranted in clinical practice to better understand monitoring needs for potentially affected individuals over time, since manifestations of HPP can arise throughout a patient's lifespan.

期刊介绍:
Bone Reports is an interdisciplinary forum for the rapid publication of Original Research Articles and Case Reports across basic, translational and clinical aspects of bone and mineral metabolism. The journal publishes papers that are scientifically sound, with the peer review process focused principally on verifying sound methodologies, and correct data analysis and interpretation. We welcome studies either replicating or failing to replicate a previous study, and null findings. We fulfil a critical and current need to enhance research by publishing reproducibility studies and null findings.
