What is Down syndrome? What are the symptoms? How can I take care of it effectively?

Down syndrome, which refers to an abnormality in the 21st pair of chromosomes in the body, is a congenital chromosomal disorder that causes children to have symptoms such as mental retardation, growth retardation, and sluggish facial expression. How to care: These children have poor immunity and are often prone to infectious diseases, so it is necessary to improve the child's immunity in daily life, try to avoid contact with some infected people, and avoid children suffering from some infectious diseases.

Down syndrome is also known as congenital stupidity, trisomy 21. Its main symptoms are moderate to severe learning disabilities, with an average IQ of about 40, and short stature, evil eyes, low ear position, and even 40 50% of children will have heart defects, and 10% of children may have intestinal malformations. In order to prevent it effectively, pregnant women should take precautions before giving birth, and if it has already happened, when feeding the baby again, the baby's body can be slightly upright, and you can rub your hands around his mouth so that he can suck.

What is Down syndrome? What are the symptoms? How can I take care of it effectively?

Down syndrome, also known as trisomy 21, is a congenital idiopathic syndrome that is one of the most common fetal chromosomal abnormalities caused by an extra chromosome on chromosome 21. In addition, children with Down syndrome will have miscarriages in the early stages of the fetus, and surviving children will have significant intellectual disability and abnormal appearance.

01 Children with Down syndrome have obvious signs of a specific face. The skull is small and round, the eyes are wide, the eye fissure is small, the outer corner of the eye is slanted, the bridge of the nose is low and flat, the outer ear is small, the tongue often sticks out of the mouth, and there is more coveting. At the same time, there will be uncoordinated limbs, muscle weakness, and coherence of the hands.

02 Low intelligence, which is the most prominent and serious manifestation, the IQ is usually between 25-50, and the ability to think abstractly is relatively impaired. Motor and sexual development are delayed, often accompanied by symptoms of lethargy and feeding difficulties.

03 Language development disorders, the average age of children who start to learn to speak is 4 years old, and most of them are accompanied by pronunciation defects, slurred speech, and a high incidence of stuttering. Difficulty communicating with others, affecting normal life.

04 Most children with Down syndrome are accompanied by other complications, such as congenital heart disease, leukemia, gastrointestinal malformations, etc., the incidence of congenital heart malformations is about 35%-50%, and the life span of Down syndrome babies is short, and the average survival age is only 20-30 years old.

05 Children with Down syndrome are usually immunocompromised and susceptible to various infections. After surviving into adulthood, symptoms of Alzheimer's disease often appear after the age of 30. Due to severe mental retardation, they are completely unable to take care of themselves, which brings a heavy mental and financial burden to the family.

06 Male children with Down syndrome are infertile, and female children with Down syndrome are prodigious and may be fertile if they have menstruation.

Every life deserves to be respected, so don't be discriminatory against children with Down syndrome.

Special facial features, language development disorders, mental retardation, as well as physical retardation and motor delay, are all obvious symptoms of Down syndrome, which can't, can't.

Down syndrome is a chromosomal disorder and a congenital disorder. It is impossible for the chromosomes of the human body to be changed, so Down syndrome can't be ** at all, let alone **, and giving birth to a child with Down syndrome will only make him miserable for a lifetime. Idiosyncratic facial features are a distinct symptom of Down syndrome, and these patients tend to have a variety of abnormalities such as a small, round head, wide eye space, upward slanting outer eye corners, and a low and flat nose bridge.

Language development disorders are also typical symptoms of Down syndrome, normal children can slowly learn to speak after a week, but the average age of children with Down syndrome will be delayed a lot, most will be delayed to 4 or 6 years old, 95% of them will suffer from pronunciation defects, even if they can speak, hoarse or slurred speech. These children are particularly likely to stutter, and more than 1 3 have abnormal speech rhythms.

Mental retardation is also the main symptom of Down syndrome, which is one of the most prominent and serious manifestations of Down syndrome, they tend to have an IQ of only 25 50, and their ability to think abstractly is greatly impaired. Physical development lags behind normal age, which is also a common symptom of Down syndrome, these children tend to be short stature, late bone age, late teething, and often misaligned, and in adulthood children have short limbs, loose ligaments, prone to joint twisting, and short and thick arms.

Children with Down syndrome have delayed motor development and behavioral disorders. These children have normal motor function in early development, but as they age, motor development becomes more and more delayed, and the gap between them and their peers grows. I can only dress and eat simply, but the movements are very clumsy, and my body is uncoordinated, and my gait is unstable, so I need to be trained repeatedly and patiently by my parents.

Children with Down syndrome have mild impairments and can learn some simple movements after repeated training, but most children with Down syndrome are resilient and hyperactive and have destructive aggression.

Reluctance to communicate with other people, often focusing on one thing, glazed eyes, like to run slopes, developmental delays. Can't, only alleviate.

Patients with Down syndrome mainly manifest themselves as special facial features, stunted growth and development, backwardness, dull expression, and wide eye distance. Down syndrome is usually not completely cured.

The sequelae of blushing and fat fat, these symptoms, are the full moon face, which is the need to take medicine for life to alleviate this problem.

What are the symptoms and clinical manifestations of Down syndrome? How can this condition be prevented? In fact, I personally feel that the reason for Down syndrome is of little significance in practical work, and it is nothing more than talking about the problem from the aspects of age, body, and environment.

For example, in pregnant women aged 40 years, the incidence of Down syndrome can reach 1 in 50, and less than 1 in 1,000 in their 20s. But that doesn't change anything, and you can't let a 40-year-old pregnant woman go back to rejuvenation. So in prenatal care, the cause is secondary, and how to find out is the most important.

In reality, Down syndrome is only one of the more common aneuploidy chromosomal abnormalities, as well as trisomy 13, trisomy 18, superandrogenic syndrome, Klinefelter syndrome, and a large number of other chromosomal abnormalities and genetic abnormalities.

On average, for every 100 births, 1 2 have a combined chromosomal or genetic abnormality; On average, each person has 100,300 genetic defects; On average, 5 to 6 out of every 100 people have birth defects ranging from chromosomal abnormalities to cleft lip and palate, foot varus, and polydactyly. Some people may ask how there are so many abnormalities and how I can't see them. First of all, these birth defects are more serious, and most of them die young.

Either you don't have the ability to take care of yourself, you can't go to a normal school, and you can't be your classmates and colleagues, so you just feel less. Most of the abnormal children are at home, which becomes a burden on the family and society. From this point of view, people are already very lucky to be born and grow up smoothly in this life, without any major problems, and with no problems with intelligence.

Even if a child is born with a seemingly normal appearance, about 7 to 8 people will develop neurological delays, which are manifested by low levels of intelligence (IQ between 70 and 90). Everyone has the impression that there are so many children in each class when they go to school, and they can't study their homework, it's not that the children don't work hard, but there is really a problem with the "hardware". Therefore, how these situations are caused and how to prevent them is easy to say, but it is simply not realistic to practice.

At most, we just avoid alcohol and tobacco during pregnancy, take folic acid, and strengthen nutrition, and there is no better way to do it. Therefore, the screening during pregnancy, whether it is ultrasound, NT, Tang screening, non-invasive, amniocentesis and other examinations, is to check these defects as much as possible, so we can do as much as possible. Even so, many diseases cannot be detected during pregnancy testing.

In a word, "Do your best to obey the destiny of heaven!" "Sometimes childbirth does require luck. ”

Down syndrome is caused by chromosomal abnormalities that cause children to have more obvious facial features, which may also be accompanied by deformities, intellectual disabilities, and physical backwardness, and they will embody a feeling of smiling; In fact, there is very little work that can be done in the prevention of this disease, and it can only be checked regularly during pregnancy, and in pregnancy, it is necessary to pay attention to be careful of radiation and not to do something harmful to the development of the fetus.

The main manifestations are that the face is a full moon face, and the incidence of mental retardation with deformity is higher than that of ordinary people, and the immunity is relatively low and the performance is relatively dementia; The best way to prevent it is to have regular prenatal check-ups when you are pregnant, and to perform some medical tests such as amniocentesis to terminate the pregnancy after confirming that you are sick.

Down syndrome is caused by chromosomal mutations, patients with obvious special facial constitution, easy to drowsiness and feeding difficulties, male patients will not have fertility until puberty; Be careful to have a prenatal follow-up before you get pregnant.

Introduction: Down syndrome is actually a disease in obstetrics and gynecology, which mainly involves eugenics. Down syndrome occurs during pregnancy due to a variety of factors, which then leads to chromosomal changes in the fetus, and finally may produce a congenital stupid fetus, that is, a fetus with intellectual disability.

Down syndrome is generally referred to as trisomy 21, and children with it will be born with stupidity. Nowadays, almost all pregnant mothers have to be screened for Down syndrome, and the indicators are high or low by checking whether the indicators are high or low. Trisomy 21 is a genetic disorder, and if a pregnant woman has such a genetic factor, she may give birth to a child with Down syndrome.

Babies with congenital stupidity may survive for a longer time if the family takes good care of them, and may survive for a short time if the family takes care of them well.

Children with Down syndrome have a special face, wide eye distance, small eye clefts, a low and flat nose bridge, sparse teeth, a small, round head, low ears, and thick and short fingers. Delayed language development and growth, cardiac hypoplasia, or gastrointestinal malformations. Children with Down syndrome have one more chromosome 21 than normal, and there are three in total, called trisomy 21.

Due to the mental retardation of children with Down syndrome, combined with multiple organ malformations, and poor survivability, there is no good clinical method.

The time of pregnancy screening is generally around 15 to 20 weeks, and the best time is 16 to 18 weeks. Tang screening is mainly prenatal screening for Down syndrome, the purpose of which is to determine the risk of neural tube defects or congenital stupidity of the fetus by testing the blood of pregnant women and checking the concentrations of alpha-fetal protein, chorionic gonadotropin, and free estriol in the maternal serum. If the indicators detected by Tang screening are high-risk or borderline, further non-invasive DNA tests or amniocentesis are needed to confirm the diagnosis, and the next step is clarified.

The symptoms manifested are mental retardation, growth retardation, low and flat nasal bridge, wide eye distance, upward slanted eyes, flat face, loose and loose teething, and some conditions such as drowsiness and feeding difficulties.

The symptoms are frequent drooling, and the distance between the eyes is wide, and the eyes often squint and often open their mouths.

The symptoms of Down syndrome are mainly manifested in developmental malformations, delayed brain development, mental retardation, dull expression, and special facial features.
