DR. John Langdon Haydon Down (1828 to 1896) was a brilliant medical student from a distinguished family. 1 It therefore came as a surprise to his colleagues when he decided to devote his career to the study and care of the mentally retarded. Langdon Down became the first superintendent of the Earlswood Asylum for Idiots in Surrey, England, from 1858 ...

The Lancet, 2003
The sequencing of chromosome 21 and the use of models of Down's syndrome in mice have allowed us to relate genes and sets of genes to the neuropathogenesis of this syndrome, and to better understand its phenotype. Research in prenatal screening and diagnosis aims to find methods to identify fetuses with Down's syndrome, and reduce or eliminate the need

Down syndrome (DS; Trisomy 21) is the most common chromosomal disorder in humans. It has numerous associated neurologic phenotypes including intellectual disability, sleep apnea, seizures, behavioral problems, and dementia. With improved access to medical care, people with DS are living longer than ever before. As more individuals with DS reach old age,

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1997
Down syndrome, trisomy of chromosome 21, is well investigated because it is a genetic disease with characteristic mental retardation and precocious dementia of Alzheimer type. Maternal serum markers of human chorionic gonadotrophin unconjugated estriol and amyloid precursor protein, nuchal skinfold on ultrasound and new genetic probes are developed to ...

Survey of Ophthalmology, 1990
Down syndrome is the most common chromosome abnormality of man. The isolated occurrence of any one of the most of the protean systemic and ocular features of Down syndrome is not specific to the disorder. The associated occurrence of several of these features, however, has distinguished affected individuals as having a distinct entity for nearly 125 ...

Down syndrome before down: A retrospect
American Journal of Medical Genetics, 2001We have attempted to identify published descriptions and reports of skeletal remains, figurines and paintings of suggested or supposed instances of Down syndrome predating John Langdon Haydon Down's initial account of the condition in 1866. A review of the ascertained material in each of these categories has not provided, in our opinion, convincing ...

Correlation of the Down Syndrome Protein with Down Syndrome
Analytical Letters, 1990Abstract The sera of two hundred and fifty-nine individuals have been investigated for the presence of the Down syndrome protein (DSP) by a modified immunoelectrophoretic procedure. The results showed that 66.25 percent of the eighty couples with Down syndrome (DS) affected children were DSP positive which was well in accordance with the reported ...

Down syndrome and breastfeeding
Acta Paediatrica, 2003Aim: The aim of the study was to investigate the frequency of breastfeeding among children with Down syndrome. Methods: The mothers of 560 children with Down syndrome attending four university hospitals in Italy were interviewed and the neonatal clinical records retrieved. Information was collected on the type of infant feeding and on why some mothers

Polysomnographic recordings were obtained for 10 Down syndrome (DS) children (6 males and 4 females, 9 months to 7 years old) and 16 age-matched normal controls. The present study was conducted to study the sleep characteristics of DS patients of this age group.
