Anomalies arising from children at the genetic level lead to a disease such as Down syndrome.
The content of the article
Nowadays it began to meet more and more often among newborns. At the same time, the syndrome in the child appears special signs due to an increase in the number of chromosomes.
Causes and types of Down syndrome, how many chromosomes
The main reason is the formation of the 47th chromosome. In ordinary person, their 46, absolutely each. They contain features that are transmitted from generation to generation, hereditfully.
Dauna disease more often appears among the kids whose age is older than 33 years old. Much less often pathology is observed among young women.
Down syndrome can flow in different forms:
- Trisomy.
- Translocation syndrome.
- Syndrome with mosaicism.
In the first case, instead of 2 chromosomes, it is found 3, which causes the development of anomalies. The cause can be a disease of the genital organs of the mother or cases with stillbirth. With a translocation syndrome of Down, the number of chromosomes is not disturbed - they are 46, but some of them are shifted, a change in position occurs.
In this case, it all depends on the carrier of the mutation - the Father. It is possible that the child will be born normal, and Daun's disease will cost him the party.
The syndrome with mosaicism is distinguished by the presence of the 47th chromosome. In this case, it is possible to observe pronounced signs of pathology. The main reason is a violation of a hormonal balance, which often occurs in women after 30 years.
How to determine Down Dauna: Symptoms
John Down syndrome is revealed immediately when the baby appears to the light. The symptoms of this disease is pronounced. All external signs are visible to the eye, and the characteristic differences include such:
- Eye cut oblique.
- Flat backs and face.
- In the upper eyelid folds.
- Skull asymmetrical.
- The ears are small.
- Cross fold on his palms.
- Misers of the curved form.
Often, among the kids with pathology, heart disease is detected. The growth of the bones is distorted, and the brain activity will slow down, coordination and muscle tone are violated. Such children are developing slower than ordinary, late begin to speak and walk. At the same time, they differ in their positive and kindness.
Is the Dauna disease treat?
John Down's disease refers to the category of incurable. Therefore, special attention must be paid to the health of the mother before the birth of the kid. It is necessary to undergo a survey of a genetics doctor in order to identify pathology in a timely manner. Most often, parents refuse to childbear if the child's birth with Down syndrome is revealed.
But despite the fact that John Down syndrome is considered incurable, attempts to combat him are constantly being taken. Today it is possible to speed up the development of the child thanks to this modern drug like thyroidine and its counterparts. In addition, it allows to reduce depressiveness, often emerging in patients. In addition, drugs that improve the metabolism are used, and soil therapy.
Stem cells are used to strengthen immunity and improve all systems of the child's body. Of course, this will not allow complete cure, but will significantly improve both the development and physical condition of the child. The growth of the bones is normalized and the normal functioning of the brain will be restored. The main thing, proceed to such treatment immediately after the birth of the baby. If this is not done in a timely manner, there will be no sense from such treatment, and John Down's disease wins.
With children suffering from this pathology, you must constantly do. Classes with speakers, communication with other children and the development of independence are greater for development. And most importantly, all drugs must be made strictly on the recommendation of the doctor, no self-medication. It will not help, but only harm.
