Down syndrome presentation
Children with Down syndrome displayed less problematic behaviors than expected in an observational study. The 10 children interacted well with each other and teachers, expressing emotions through facial expressions and body language rather than words. They enjoyed group activities and play. While they became upset if someone took their things or spoke aggressively, they calmed down easily with affection. The children's behaviors seemed linked more to environmental stimuli than their medical condition alone.
Down Syndrome Presentation
Down syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by a triplication of chromosome 21. It was first described in 1886 by Dr. John Langdon Down, who noted common characteristics in a group of people that resembled those of Eastern races, leading it also to be called mongolism. Risk factors include infectious diseases or crises during early pregnancy as well as increased maternal age. People with Down syndrome often have limited initiative, decreased inhibition, resistance to change, and low responsiveness in areas like attention, intelligence, memory, and language. Parents are encouraged to learn about Down syndrome, love and play with their child, encourage independence, stay involved in their education, and maintain patience and hope.
Down Syndrome
Down syndrome is a genetic condition caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21. It causes delays in mental and physical development. Common physical signs include a flattened nose, upward slanting eyes, and separated skull bones. While there is no cure, treatments focus on managing medical conditions like heart defects. People with Down syndrome can live independently into middle age but have an increased risk of dementia. Advocacy groups like the National Down Syndrome Society provide support and raise funds for research.
Downs Syndrome
Down's syndrome is a chromosomal deficiency caused by trisomy 21, the most common form. It can cause intellectual disabilities and developmental delays. Many children with Down's syndrome are abandoned or killed, but with support like counseling, therapy, and education they can thrive. Raising awareness through media outreach and advocacy can help fight stigma and ensure rights are protected under disability laws.

Down syndrome is a chromosomal condition caused by the presence of an extra copy of chromosome 21. It is often associated with delays in cognitive ability and physical growth. Individuals with Down syndrome typically have an IQ around 50, compared to 100 for those without it, and many have severe intellectual disabilities.
Term Paper
Down syndrome is a chromosomal disorder caused by the presence of an extra chromosome 21. It is characterized by cognitive impairment, characteristic facial features, and other physical traits. Screening methods during pregnancy such as ultrasound exams and genetic testing can detect Down syndrome. The majority of cases are caused by errors during cell division called nondisjunction, resulting in a trisomy 21, but rare cases can be caused by translocations or duplications of chromosome 21 material.
Inquiry Project 3 Down Syndrome
Down syndrome is a genetic condition that causes delays in physical, intellectual, and language development. It affects about 1 in every 800 babies born. Doctors can diagnose Down syndrome prenatally through tests or after birth based on physical features. Children with Down syndrome may experience some degree of intellectual disability but most can attain independence with support. Early intervention and education help children with Down syndrome develop skills and lead productive lives as adults. Parents play an important role by supporting their child's development and advocating for their needs.

Down Syndrome.ppt
Down syndrome is caused by an extra 21st chromosome and occurs in about 1 in 800 live births. The risk increases with maternal age over 30. Common features include mental retardation, hypotonia, a flat face, protruding tongue, malformed ears, and congenital heart defects. Diagnosis can be made through genetic testing like amniocentesis during pregnancy. Management focuses on early stimulation programs and social skills training.
Down Syndrome
Down Syndrome is caused by the presence of an extra chromosome 21 or part of an extra chromosome 21. It is also known as Trisomy 21. Common symptoms include a round face, broad head, excess joint laxity, and an IQ range of 10-70. The incidence rates are 1 per 800 to 1 per 1000 births depending on the mother's age, with older mothers having higher risks. While there is no prevention or cure, testing like amniocentesis can detect Down Syndrome during pregnancy. Support organizations like the National Down Syndrome Society provide help for children with Down Syndrome.
Down Syndrome
This document provides guidelines for the basic medical surveillance of cardiac disease for people with Down syndrome. It recommends screening all newborns with Down syndrome for congenital heart defects through clinical examination and echocardiogram. It emphasizes the importance of early detection of heart defects like atrioventricular septal defects to allow for corrective surgery before irreversible damage occurs. It also notes the need for ongoing monitoring throughout life due to risks of later developing heart conditions.
Final presentation
The document summarizes a service learning project hosted by a university group for the Down Syndrome Association of Central Florida. The group planned a Spring Fling event with arts and crafts at the Association's facility. Only 2 children attended, though more were expected. A highlight was a storytelling activity led by a girl named Zoe who shared her own version of the story. The experience gave the group insight into working with children with Down syndrome.

Burl Down Syndrome
The Down Syndrome Network of Montgomery County provides support and advocacy for families with members who have Down Syndrome. Down Syndrome is a genetic condition caused by having three copies of the 21st chromosome, rather than the typical two copies, resulting in delays in physical and mental development. The organization offers programs like literacy tutoring, assistive technology training, playgroups, respite care, family festivals, and social activities to help children with Down Syndrome and support their families.

Down syndrome by Dr. Rubzzz
John Langdon Down was a British physician who first described Down syndrome in 1866 and recognized it as a distinct medical condition; he proposed that it results from reversion to ancestral traits seen in other races. Down syndrome, also known as trisomy 21, occurs when there is an extra chromosome 21 present and results in cognitive impairment and physical characteristics including a flat facial profile, upward slanting eyes, and a short neck. The risk of Down syndrome increases with maternal age and proper prenatal screening and testing can help diagnose the condition before birth.
down syndrome 2
The document discusses Down syndrome, which is caused by trisomy of chromosome 21 resulting in 47 total chromosomes instead of the typical 46. Individuals with Down syndrome have increased risk based on advanced maternal age and are more likely to have certain physical traits like a flat face and short hands. The condition was first described in 1866 and its genetic basis was discovered in 1930. Current research uses mouse models to study specific genes on chromosome 21 that may contribute to Down syndrome phenotypes.
proba
This document discusses Down syndrome, including its causes, characteristics, and effects. Down syndrome occurs in about 1 in 800-1,100 births and results from a chromosomal abnormality involving an extra copy of chromosome 21. It can cause intellectual disabilities and developmental delays, as well as health issues such as heart defects, vision and hearing problems, and infections. The document outlines some of the facial features and oral issues associated with Down syndrome and how they can affect speech. While there is no cure for Down syndrome, many signs and symptoms can be improved with medical care and therapy.

MERCURY GROUP.BHMS.MATERIA MEDICA.HOMOEOPATHY
Mercurius is named after the roman god mercurius, the god of trade and science. The planet mercurius is named after the same god. Mercurius is sometimes called hydrargyrum, means ‘watery silver’. Its shine and colour are very similar to silver, but mercury is a fluid at room temperatures. The name quick silver is a translation of hydrargyrum, where the word quick describes its tendency to scatter away in all directions.
The droplets have a tendency to conglomerate to one big mass, but on being shaken they fall apart into countless little droplets again. It is used to ignite explosives, like mercury fulminate, the explosive character is one of its general themes.

Pharmacology of 5-hydroxytryptamine and Antagonist
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.
