The Sudroid (Indo-African) Race The Sudroid (IndoAfrican) Race. The Sudran, or Sudroid, race refers to the aboriginal populations of India. dolicocephaly - dolicocephaly ( long-headedness ) is common amongst Sudras many are classed as hyperdolicocephalic. dolicocephaly is common amongst East Africans in general http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Ithaca/1335/Anthro/sud_afr.html
Extractions: The most evident similarity between Africans and Sudroids is their black skin colour. It often approaches deep black, and when shiny resemble tar. The Adi Dravidas (true Dravidians) of South India are black like the Africans with a slightly different hair texture [ Win.gen ]. The nose of Sudroids closely resembles that of Negroids and Australoids, being very broad. In both pure black African and pure Sudroid it is often as wide as it is broad, ie. the nasal index (ratio of width to height) is 100. By contrast Caucasians are fine-nosed. The Indo-Aryan is thus very similar to the European, possessing a fine nose, while the Sudroid is related to the Africans -

What does it mean? Hypotonia: decreased tone of the skeletal muscles characterized by weakness and "floppiness" Developmental delay: Unable to meet... Macrocephaly: large head for which the cause may be unknown. It is not the same as fluid on the brain, which is typically called hydrocephaly and may require a shunt. Speech Difficulties: Growling, low gutteral utterances. Seizures: There may be mild seizures in which the child "tunes out" but does not have any physical spasms. Ptosis: Drooping of the upper eyelid - in other words, the eyes may look partially shut as if they are ready to fall asleep. Wandering eye is usually referred to as strabismus. Epicanthal folds: The vertical fold of skin on the inner corner of the eye ( on each side of the nose) is excessive and covers the inner corner of the eye. This feature is typically seen in individuals with Down syndrome and it is also a normal characteristic in certain races, such as Asians - that is why Down syndrome was initially referred to as Mongolism - the epicanthal fold is a normal trait in people of Mongolia.

Extractions: Subscribe to 22q13 Powered by www.egroups.com Deletion of 22q13.3 is not as common as 22q11 deletion. The deletion occurs at the very end tip (The distal end) of Chromosome 22. Patients missing this part of chromosome 22 present similar features. Studies for 22q13.3 deletion are ongoing at the The University of Alberta Hospital under the direction of Heather McDermid.

In other words, there is only a 1 in 133,333 to 1 in 850,000 chance of having two children with this rare condition. Well, our two children each have it. Our daughter, Shauna, was born in July, 1997. Although the doctors and literature available in 1994 advised us that sagittal synostosis is not genetic, we now believe otherwise. At one week of age, Shauna was also diagnosed with sagittal synostosis. She ended up having the surgery in November, 1997, when she was 15 weeks old. In June, 2002, we had a third child, Melanie. She is almost 2 years old and has shown no signs whatsoever of sagittal synostosis. She has a perfectly round head and has passed all her developmental milestones. It has been almost 10 years since our first child was diagnosed with sagittal sysnostosis and 7 years since our daughter had the surgery. Our 3 children are all happy and healthy. The issue never seems to come up because all our children "look normal". We are truly grateful to to doctors and staff at the Toronto Hospital for Sick Children, who performed the surgery on our children and have enabled them to lead happy, healthy, and normal lives.

Extractions: Tricho-Dento-Osseous (TDO) syndrome is a rare inherited multisystem disorder that belongs to a group of diseases known as ectodermal dysplasias. Ectodermal dysplasias typically affect the hair, teeth, nails, and/or skin. TDO syndrome is characterized by kinky or curly hair; poorly developed tooth enamel; and unusual thickness and/or denseness (sclerosis) of the top portion of the skull (calvaria) and/or the long bones (i.e., bones in the arms and legs). In some cases, affected individuals also exhibit abnormally thin, brittle nails or premature closure (fusion) of the fibrous joints between certain bones in the skull (craniosynostosis), causing the head to appear abnormally long and narrow (dolicocephaly). There may be three distinct types of TDO syndrome. Some researchers suggest that these variants may be differentiated mainly by whether the calvaria and/or long bones exhibit abnormal hardening (sclerosis), thickening, and/or density. Other symptoms also vary among the three disorder types. TDO syndrome is inherited as an autosomal dominant genetic trait.

This forces the head to grow in a front to back direction, leading to a narrow elongated head. Help build the largest human-edited directory on the web.
