科罗拉多双胞胎登记处（CTR）是一个基于人口的登记处，由出生和学校记录组成，包括1968年至今出生的双胞胎。先前关于CTR的两份报告[Rhea等人，（2006年）。Twin Research and Human Genetics，9，941-949; Rhea等人，Twin Research and Human Genetics，16，351-357]涵盖了CTR到2012年的发展。本报告简要总结了先前提交的关于确定和招募以及样本与研究之间关系的材料，讨论了自2012年以来四个先前描述的双样本的发展情况，描述了两个新样本及其补充研究，并扩展了上一份报告中简要提到的两个主题：涉及CTR样本的基因分型工作的历史，以及包括CTR双胞胎的合作和联盟的调查。CTR仍然是正在进行的纵向研究和为新确定的研究机会招募新的双胞胎样本的积极资源。
The Colorado Twin Registry (CTR) is a population-based registry formed from birth and school records including twins born between 1968 and the present. Two previous reports on the CTR [Rhea et al., (2006). Twin Research and Human Genetics, 9, 941-949; Rhea et al., (2013).Twin Research and Human Genetics, 16, 351-357] covered developments in the CTR through 2012. This report briefly summarizes previously presented material on ascertainment and recruitment and the relationships between samples and studies, discusses developments since 2012 for four previously described twin samples, describes two new samples and their complementary studies and expands on two subjects briefly mentioned in the last report: a history of genotyping efforts involving CTR samples, and a survey of collaborations and consortia in which CTR twins have been included. The CTR remains an active resource for both ongoing, longitudinal research and the recruitment of new twin samples for newly identified research opportunities.
