    Werner syndrome, also known as progeria of the adult, is the most common of the premature aging disorders. Werner syndrome is inherited as an autosomal recessive disorder of chromosome 8, meaning that a defective gene is inherited from each parent. The syndrome is estimated to occur in 1 in 1 million individuals. Higher incidences of Werner syndrome have been reported in Japan and Sardinia. It affects both males and females.

    Choke yourself.
