This book was released on with total page 889 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the ever-evolving landscape of medical science and holistic wellness, the quest to enhance the quality of life for individuals facing genetic conditions has led to innovative explorations of alternative therapies. "Advanced Treatment for Down Syndrome (Trisomy 21): Apometry, NLP, Regression, and Hypnosis" embarks on a journey into uncharted territories where conventional medicine meets complementary modalities, exploring the intersection of genetics, consciousness, and healing. This book delves into the delicate realm of Down syndrome, a genetic condition caused by an extra chromosome 21, challenging individuals and families to navigate a unique path of challenges and triumphs. Our exploration is driven by the genuine belief that knowledge is empowerment. We present an array of perspectives, ideas, and potential therapies that may complement traditional medical interventions. It's essential to emphasize that the intention behind this book is to foster an open-minded dialogue among various disciplines. We understand that genetic conditions like Down syndrome are complex and multifaceted, requiring a comprehensive approach that considers both the physical and emotional aspects of those affected. Throughout the chapters, we explore concepts such as Apometry, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Regression, and Hypnosis, probing how these modalities might play a role in the broader spectrum of therapies. We acknowledge that these methods might not be universally embraced by the medical community, but we believe in their potential to enrich the lives of individuals with Down syndrome and their families. However, we firmly underscore that medical decisions should always be made in consultation with healthcare professionals. While we delve into alternative approaches, we do so with respect for the foundations of medical science and the need for rigorous research and ethical consideration. As you embark on this reading journey, we encourage you to approach each page with curiosity and an open heart. We invite you to engage critically and compassionately, absorbing the information while recognizing the complexity and nuances inherent in discussing genetic conditions and holistic wellness. We extend our gratitude to the experts, practitioners, and families who shared their insights and experiences, enriching the narrative and contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the subjects explored within these pages. May this book serve as a bridge between the realms of genetics, alternative therapies, and conscious exploration, offering perspectives that inspire and empower those who seek a more holistic approach to Down syndrome and its challenges.

Book Synopsis Down Syndrome: From Understanding the Neurobiology to Therapy by : Mara Dierssen
Download or read book Down Syndrome: From Understanding the Neurobiology to Therapy written by Mara Dierssen and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-06-19 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Down syndrome (DS) is the most common example of neurogenetic aneuploid disorder leading to mental retardation. In most cases, DS results from an extra copy of chromosome 21 (HSA21) producing deregulated gene expression in brain that gives raise to subnormal intellectual functioning. The topic of this volume is of broad interest for the neuroscience community, because it tackles the concept of neurogenomics, that is, how the genome as a whole contributes to a neurodevelopmental cognitive disorders, such as DS, and thus to the development, structure and function of the nervous system. This volume of Progress in Brain Research discusses comparative genomics, gene expression atlases of the brain, network genetics, engineered mouse models and applications to human and mouse behavioral and cognitive phenotypes. It brings together scientists of diverse backgrounds, by facilitating the integration of research directed at different levels of biological organization, and by highlighting translational research and the application of the existing scientific knowledge to develop improved DS treatments and cures. Leading authors review the state-of-the-art in their field of investigation and provide their views and perspectives for future research Chapters are extensively referenced to provide readers with a comprehensive list of resources on the topics covered All chapters include comprehensive background information and are written in a clear form that is also accessible to the non-specialist

Book Synopsis Intellectual Disabilities in Down Syndrome from Birth and throughout Life: Assessment and Treatment by : Marie-Claude Potier
Download or read book Intellectual Disabilities in Down Syndrome from Birth and throughout Life: Assessment and Treatment written by Marie-Claude Potier and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2017-02-24 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research on the multiple aspects of cognitive impairment in Down syndrome (DS), from genes to behavior to treatment, has made tremendous progress in the last decade. The study of congenital intellectual disabilities such as DS is challenging since they originate from the earliest stages of development and both the acquisition of cognitive skills and neurodegenerative pathologies are cumulative. Comorbidities such as cardiac malformations, sleep apnea, diabetes and dementia are frequent in the DS population, as well, and their increased risk provides a means of assessing early stages of these pathologies that is relevant to the general population. Notably, persons with DS will develop the histopathology of Alzheimer’s disease (formation of neuritic plaques and tangles) and are at high risk for dementia, something that cannot be predicted in the population at large. Identification of the gene encoding the amyloid precursor protein, its localization to chromosome 21 in the 90’s and realization that all persons with DS develop pathology identified this as an important piece of the amyloid cascade hypothesis in Alzheimer’s disease. Awareness of the potential role of people with DS in understanding progression and treatment as well as identification of genetic risk factors and also protective factors for AD is reawakening. For the first time since DS was recognized, major pharmaceutical companies have entered the search for ameliorative treatments, and phase II clinical trials to improve learning and memory are in progress. Enriched environment, brain stimulation and alternative therapies are being tested while clinical assessment is improving, thus increasing the chances of success for therapeutic interventions. Researchers and clinicians are actively pursuing the possibility of prenatal treatments for many conditions, an area with a huge potential impact for developmental disorders such as DS. Our goal here is to present an overview of recent advances with an emphasis on behavioral and cognitive deficits and how these issues change through life in DS. The relevance of comorbidities to the end phenotypes described and relevance of pharmacological targets and possible treatments will be considerations throughout.

Download or read book Down Syndrome written by Richard Spilsbury and published by The Rosen Publishing Group, Inc. This book was released on 2018-07-15 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First identified in the nineteenth century, Down syndrome is one of the most recognizable genetic disorders, marked by characteristic facial features and mild to moderate intellectual disability. Since scientists discovered in the 1950s that people with Down syndrome have an extra copy of chromosome 21, there has been much more research into the disorder, how to screen for it, and how to treat individuals who have it. This informative book covers all aspects of Down syndrome and includes accounts from people who have it.
