Number of nexin links detectable at standard electron microscopy of normal human nasal cilia and at nexin link deficiency
Results In the control group the median number of nexin links was 4.5 per cilium, range 3.4 5.3. In the second group the mean number of nexin links per cilium was 1.1 1.4, in the third group 0.8 1.2, per patient. The median number of IDA was in the control group 4.2, range 3.3 5.2. In groups 2 and 3 the numbers were 3.0 3.5 and 0.2 1.0, respectively, per patient. Numbers of ODA were normal in all groups.
