Dictionaries: General Computing Medical Legal Encyclopedia List of genetic disorders Word: Word Starts with Ends with Definition The following code indicates the type of mutation; the following number (or X or Y) indicates the chromosome involved. P - Point mutation, or any insertion/deletion entirely inside one gene. D - Deletion of a gene or genes. C - Whole chromosome extra, missing, or both. Angelman syndrome Angelman syndrome is a genetic disorder in which a gene on chromosome 15 is missing or unexpressed. It was discovered in 1965 by Harry Angelman. Children with Angelman syndrome are generally late to develop and speak very little but have good linguistic comprehension. They have a protruding lower jaw or tongue. They laugh often, hold their arms as if they were a marionette, and flap them around, which gave the syndrome its initial name, "happy puppet syndrome". Click the link for more information. DCP 15 Canavan disease Canavan disease is a rare, inherited, neurological disorder characterized by spongy degeneration of the brain (in which the white matter is replaced by microscopic fluid-filled spaces). It is caused by a deficiency of an enzyme called aspartoacylase. Canavan disease is one of a group of genetic disorders called the leukodystrophies that affect growth of the myelin sheath of the nerve fibers Click the link for more information.

Other ideas for lesson plans are at the lesson plan site Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications of the Human Genome Project Ethical, Legal, and Social Implications of the Human Genome Project Bioethics and the HGP Case studies of Fragile-X, colon cancer, Huntington disease and schizophrenia are used in decision making situations which are evaluated using the Principles and Rules of Ethics. DNA fingerprinting is evaluated in terms of privacy issues. Knappers and Chadwick's 5 Basic Principles Regarding Ethical or Legal Norms of the Human Genome Project are discussed. Bioethics: Debates in the Science Classroom Debates in the Biology class?! Absolutely! Incorporating performance assessment activities such as debate, mock trial, and parody allow the "non-science" student chances to excel. Bioethical decision-making is a perfect classroom tool. Biotechnology Education Program The Biotechnology Education Program is a two-three week multidisciplinary, spiraled curriculum that exposes entire high schools to the issues involved/or brought about by improvements in biotechnology. Math, English, Social Science, and Science lessons have been written by teachers to explore themes over a given year. This was developed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.

Chapter 3 Children and Mental Health Normal Development Theories of Development Social and Language Development ... References Other Mental Disorders in Children and Adolescents Anxiety Disorders The combined prevalence of the group of disorders known as anxiety disorders is higher than that of virtually all other mental disorders of childhood and adolescence (Costello et al., 1996). The 1-year prevalence in children ages 9 to 17 is 13 percent (Table 3-1). This section furnishes brief overviews of several anxiety disorders: separation anxiety disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, social phobia, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Treatments for all but the latter are grouped together below. Separation Anxiety Disorder Separation anxiety is often associated with symptoms of depression, such as sadness, withdrawal, apathy, or difficulty in concentrating, and such children often fear that they or a family member might die. Young children experience nightmares or fears at bedtime. About 4 percent of children and young adolescents suffer from separation anxiety disorder (DSM-IV). Among those who seek treatment, separation anxiety disorder is equally distributed between boys and girls. In survey samples, the disorder is more common in girls (DSM-IV). The disorder may be overdiagnosed in children and teenagers who live in dangerous neighborhoods and have reasonable fears of leaving home. The remission rate with separation anxiety disorder is high. However, there are periods where the illness is more severe and other times when it remits. Sometimes the condition lasts many years or is a precursor to panic disorder with agoraphobia. Older individuals with separation anxiety disorder may have difficulty moving or getting married and may, in turn, worry about separation from their own children and partner.

References Etiology of Mood Disorders Biologic Factors in Depression the biological abnormalities interrelate, how they correlate with behavioral and emotional patterns that seem to distinguish one subcategory of major depression from another, and how they respond to diverse forms of therapy. In the search for biological changes with depression, it must be understood that a biological abnormality reliably associated with depression may not actually be a causal factor. For example, a biologic alteration could be a consequence of sleep deprivation or weight loss. Any biological abnormality found in conjunction with any mental disorder may be a cause, a correlate, or a consequence, as discussed in Chapter 2. What drives research is the determination to find which of the biological abnormalities in depression are true causes, especially ones that might be detectable and treatable before the onset of clinical symptoms. Monoamine Hypothesis For many years the prevailing hypothesis was that depression was caused by an absolute or relative deficiency of monoamine Despite the problems with the hypothesis that monoamine depletion is the primary cause of depression, monoamine impairment is certainly one of the manifestations, or correlates, of depression. Therefore, the monoamine hypothesis remains important for treatment purposes. Many currently available pharmacotherapies that relieve depression or cause mania, or both, enhance monoamine activity. One of the foremost classes of drugs for depression, SSRIs, for example, boost the level of serotonin in the brain.

Education Employment Housing Transportation ... Travel Your UCP: National June 09, 2004 Research Fact Sheets: General Info Genetic Disorders of Metabolism: Cerebral Palsy, 5/2000 Comment: In the not too distant past, any infant or child who had an unexplained developmental disorder that included muscle spasticity and/or unusual body movements (athetosis; dystonia) was often referred to as having cerebral palsy (CP). The children were included in the cerebral palsy category even though they had other major problems which were only sometimes associated with cerebral palsy (e.g. blindness; profound behavioral disturbance, frequent convulsions; muscle twitching; cardiac failure; etc); however, for lack of a better diagnosis, the term cerebral palsy was used. With the development of genetic testing, we now know that a large number of these unusual presentations which were called C.P. are in fact genetic disorders which affect the child's total body metabolism, only one symptom of which is muscle spasticity and/or poor muscle coordination. There are over 100 of these genetically based metabolic disorders that generally affect many parts of the body, only one of which is the brain. They are usually relatively rare; often have occurred previously in other family members; the symptoms often increase in severity over time and can eventuate in death in childhood or adolescence. Treatments have been developed for some that serve to arrest the metabolic problem; however, many have no useful treatment available at this time.
