Trisomy 21, sometimes known as an an extra copy of chromosome 21, is the hereditary aetiology of Down syndrome. It influences general development, cognition, and physical growth. Usually not passed on, this disorder arises spontaneously during cell division.
People with Down syndrome often exhibit unique physical traits, including low muscular tone, a flat facial profile, upward-slant eyes, and a tiny nose. Also common are developmental delays, mild to moderate intellectual handicaps, and potential health issues such as thyroid abnormalities, heart defects, and hearing loss.
Speech therapy, occupational therapy, and special education programs are just a few of the ways that early intervention can help kids improve their cognitive and motor skills. Monitoring and controlling related health issues depends on routine physician visits. Despite the inability to cure Down syndrome, individuals can lead joyful lives through appropriate care, support, and social inclusion.
