It is important to spread awareness and information, as better societal awareness can make life easier and far better for those afflicted, and provide them better education, therapy programs, and general quality of life. (2/2)
One in every 300 babies is born with Down Syndrome, and with almost 360,000 children born everyday, that’s around 514 Down Syndrome afflicted Children born everyday. Research can greatly improve the health, lifespan, and quality of life of those afflicted. (1/2)
Down Syndrome Symptoms are: Decreased or poor muscle tone, short neck with excess skin at the back of the neck, flattened facial profile & nose, small head, ears, & mouth, upward slanting eyes, wide, short hands with short fingers, & a deep groove b/w the first & second toes.
Another name for Down Syndrome is Trisomy 21, or in other words, an extra chromosome 21. It is not inherited or affected by the parent’s genetics. The extra chromosome is a random event caused during the formation of reproductive cells in the parent.
Down Syndrome is neither dominant nor recessive, due to the fact that it is not passed down by the parents, but is caused by a random error in reproduction. Those afflicted, can also experience some accelerated symptoms from other diseases, such as Alzheimer’s.
In order to know if a future child will be afflicted, there are two possible tests: Prenatal Screenings, and Diagnostic tests available in the second Trimester
Prenatal Screenings performed before birth alert the parents to the chance that their child will have Down Syndrome, while Diagnostic Tests will let the parents know if the child will have Down Syndrome or not.
There are no treatments specifically for down syndrome itself, nor cures, but there are therapy programs available. Some examples of these include Speech-language, Physical, Emotional/Behavioral, and Occupational therapy.
There are government programs and resources available for those afflicted. Such as: National Down Syndrome Society (NDSS), Association for Children with Down Syndrome (ACDS), and National Association for Down Syndrome (NADS) care.com/c/stories/6643…
Hopefully, in the future, we have potential drugs to boost the chemical norepinephrine in the brain alleviating the cognitive problems.
Do you believe there is more public awareness/information about the genetic causes, nature, and development of Down Syndrome or more public awareness/information about the livelihoods/lifestyles of people with Down Syndrome?
