ThirdAge - Adam - Riley-Day Syndrome rileyday syndrome. Definition riley-day syndrome is an inherited disorder that affects the function of nerves throughout the body. Alternative Names http://www.thirdage.com/health/adam/ency/article/001387.htm
Extractions: Causes, incidence, and risk factors: Riley-Day syndrome is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait, which means that a person must inherit the defective gene from both parents in order to develop the condition. It is found predominantly in people of European Jewish descent (Ashkenazi Jews). The disease is caused by mutation of the IKBKAP gene on chromosome 9. It is rare in the general population, but not amongst Ashkenazi Jews, where the incidence is estimated to be 1 in 3,700 people. Infants with this condition have feeding problems and develop pneumonia caused by breathing their formula and food into their airways. Vomiting and sweating spells begin as the infant matures. Young children may also have breath-holding spells that produce unconsciousness , since they can hold their breath for long enough to pass out without feeling the discomfort that normal children would.

Extractions: Familial Dysautonomia is a rare genetic disorder of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) that primarily affects people of Eastern European Jewish heritage. It is characterized by diminished sensitivity to pain, lack of overflow tearing in the eyes, a decrease in the number of knob-like projections that cover the tongue (fungiform papillae), unusual fluctuations of body temperature, and unstable blood pressure. Symptoms of this disorder are apparent at birth. The autonomic nervous system controls vital involuntary body functions. Resources

Extractions: Familial Dysautonomia (FD) What Is It? Symptoms Diagnosis Expected Duration ... Additional Info What Is It? Familial dysautonomia (FD), also called Riley-Day syndrome, is an inherited disorder that affects the nervous system. People who are born with FD have fewer nerve fibers for carrying sensations. For this reason, they have trouble feeling pain, temperature, skin pressure and the position of their arms and legs. They can't experience taste fully. They also have abnormally low levels of a natural chemical called norepinephrine that helps to relay messages between nerve cells.

Extractions: The patent was issued to Dr. Joan Fallon with offices in Yonkers, NY. Familal dysautonomia (FD) which is also known as Riley-day syndrome, is an autosomal recessive disease that affects approximately 1 in 4,000 individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent. This disorder is marked by a reduction of unmyelinated and small myelinated fibers as well as a reduction of dopamine-beta-hyrozylase in the blood. The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has issued today Patent # 6,660,831 METHOD FOR DIAGNOSING AND TREATING DYSAUTONOMIA AND OTHER DYSAUTONOMIC CONDITIONS. The patent, which will remain in force until 2017, covers the use of the neuropeptide secretin for the treatment of symptoms associated with familial dysautonomia. The patent was issued to Dr. Joan Fallon with offices in Yonkers, NY.
