Psycho-Speech Delay in Genetic Diseases

Нарушение психо-речевого развития при генетических заболеваниях

With the development of a number of natural sciences (genetics, biochemistry, embryology, general biology, etc.), more and more importance is attached to genetic factors, which are considered to be the cause of more than half of cases of psycho-speech development disorders. This primarily includes the chromosome set pathology. Currently, more than 200 types of chromosomal aberrations are being described, causing psycho-speech development delay and mental retardation.

Among the factors causing psycho-speech development delay, a significant role is attached to the polygenic type of inheritance, in which the offspring accumulates pathological genes obtained from both parents, each of whom, having a “subliminal” number of pathological genes, is clinically healthy.

Inborn amino acids, metals, salts, fats and carbohydrates metabolism errors due to congenital inferiority of enzyme structures play a large role in the occurrence of genetic forms of psycho-speech development delay.

A special group of genetic diseases are hereditary defects that combine speech and cognitive impairments with the muscular, bone, skin, cardiovascular systems disorder, as well as visual and hearing organs.

As it is known, the most frequent chromosomal disease is Down's syndrome (trisomy in the twenty-first pair of autosomes), the frequency of which is 1: 700 newborns. The encounter rates of Down’s syndrome increases in children born by women over 35 years old. Patients with this disease have a special appearance and suffer from mental and physical retardation.

Williams Syndrome, also known as elfin facies syndrome, is a genetic disease based on chromosomal disorders. This disease is characterized by peculiarities of external development features and is accompanied by mental retardation, despite the fact that some intelligence beatures may be present. Children suffering from this syndrome have a specific appearance resembling an elfin  facies, thus the secondary name of this syndrome.

Characteristic features are a broad forehead, discrepancy of eyebrows in the middle line, the iris color is bright blue (eyeballs can have the same shade), full cheeks lowered down, a big mouth with full lips (especially the lower one), a flat nose, a kind of nose with a flat blunt end, and a small, somewhat sharp-appeared chin.

As of today, there is no specific chromosomal disease treatment. In “Bersenev’s Medical Centre” in order to improve cognitive, verbal and social skills we apply metameric neurotrophic medicinal treatment in combination with a full body metameric massage, metameric speech apparatus massage and psychological therapy. These therapeutic measures are carried out in a complex and can deliver excellent results and a visible child’s state improvement.

To make an appointment for a consultation or a treatment session, please, call (044) 272-11-82 (children’s department) or (044) 238-22-31 (call centre).

Child neurology
No one can go back and change their start, but everyone can start now and change their finish. When a family decides to have a child, everyone imagines how beautiful, intelligent, and happy it will be. Hardly anyone imagines the baby’s future as sick, helpless and unhappy one. Unfortunately, life has not only pleasant surprises. The joy of birth can be clouded by disease message. Among the causes of child disability the nervous disorders are leading, 75% of which occurs during fetal development stage or during childbirth.

Детский невролог — специализируется на лечении болезней, связанных с поражением центральной и периферической нервной системы, а также функциональными нарушениями у детей.

Как правило, в первый месяц рождения, врачи направляют родителей на принудительную консультацию к детскому неврологу в клинике, даже если он родился полностью здоровым, и не обладает какими-либо нарушениями связанных с нервной системой. Кроме того, также необходимы регулярные повторные осмотры, на протяжении следующих этапов жизни.

Muscle tone disorders

Muscle tone is a slight muscle tension, which is necessary for their quick inclusion in working condition. It is the level of tone that determines the readiness of the muscle complex to perform motor functions. For each period of child’s development there exist physiological standards of tonic activity.

Spinal amyotrophy

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) – is a severe genetic neuromuscular disease caused by a defect in the SMN 1 gene.

The gene is responsible for the synthesis of the SMN protein, which ensures the survival of motoneurons – motor neurons of the spinal cord. In patients with SMA protein is produced less than the required amount, and motoneurons are destroyed without it. As a result, the muscles do not receive the right signals from the brain,  they atrophy and gradually weaken, and then paralysis occurs.

A speech is a reflection of thinking; it is a system. If there are problems with oral speech, then there will be difficulties with the thoughts formation, the ability to analyse, speculate, build logic chains, and also there will be some difficulties with reading and writing. A violation in one speech link is enough to make the whole system start to function incorrectly.
