  1. The classification in the table denotes fully synapsed chromosomes, telomere end-to-end connections, ring chromosomes (X and Y chromosomes form a ring), incomplete synapsing (one or two chromosomes have un-synapsed part), and multiple connections (several chromosomes are connected) (F1, p-value = 0.008, n = 5 control, n = 5 CD; F3, p-value = 0.004, n = 4 control, n = 4 CD, Pearson’s Chi-squared test).
