Down syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by having an extra chromosome 21. There are three main types: 1. Trisomy 21 2. Translocation Down syndrome and, 3. Mosaic Down syndrome. Trisomy 21 is the most common, where every cell in the body has an extra chromosome 21. Translocation Down syndrome happens when part of chromosome 21 is attached to another chromosome. Mosaic Down syndrome is the rarest and involves a mix of normal and extra chromosome 21 cells. Each type of Down syndrome has its own challenges, but they all share some common features like developmental delays and certain physical traits. The severity of symptoms can be different for each person. Early help with therapy and education is very important for children with Down syndrome to reach their full potential. Knowing the types helps us give the right support and care. #DownSyndromeAwareness #GeneticDisorders #InclusiveEducation

People with Kabuki syndrome may have mild to severe developmental delay and intellectual disability. Affected individuals may also have seizures, an unusually small head size or weak muscle tone (hypotonia). Some have eye problems such as rapid, involuntary eye movements (nystagmus) or eyes that do not look in the same direction (strabismus). Genetic testing can help in diagnosing the mutant variants that increases the risk of developing the disorder. #kabukisyndrome #developmentaldelay #intellectualdisability #genetictesting

💠Dwarfism is diminished stature caused by a medical or genetic disorder. In general, dwarfism is characterised by an adult stature of not more than 4 feet 10 inches (147 centimetres). Dwarfism is associated with an average adult height of 4 feet (122 centimetres). 💠Conversely, "little people" and "short stature" are terms that some individuals prefer to "dwarf" and "dwarfism." Consequently, it is critical to respect the preference of an individual with this disorder. Familial short stature is not classified as a short stature disorder; it is considered a normal variation in height resulting from typical bone development.
