Common characteristics are speech sound disorder (CAS - childhood apraxia of speech, dysarthria), delayed development, delayed motor development and clumsiness, anxiety (especially on social conditions), selective mutism (in 20% of the subjects), ADHD, oppositional disorder, ASD (in 20%), intellectual disability in 18%, cardio-vascular disease ...
7p22.1 microduplication syndrome (also called Trisomy 7p22.1) is a genetic disorder which is characterized by cranial and facial dysmorphisms, intellectual disability, and motor-speech delays. [1] It is caused by a duplication of the p22.1 region of chromosome 7.
This category reflects the organization of International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th Revision. Generally, diseases outlined within the ICD-10 codes Q90-Q99 within Chapter XVII: Congenital malformations, deformations and chromosomal abnormalities should be included in this category.
Greig cephalopolysyndactyly syndrome is a chromosomal condition related to chromosome 7. Mutations in the GLI3 gene cause Greig cephalopolysyndactyly syndrome. The GLI3 gene provides instructions for making a protein that controls gene expression, which is a process that regulates whether genes are turned on or off in particular cells.
[citation needed] An example of trisomy in humans is Down syndrome, which is a developmental disorder caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21; the disorder is therefore also called "trisomy 21". [7] An example of monosomy in humans is Turner syndrome, where the individual is born with only one sex chromosome, an X. [8]
In 10% of the cases, the syndrome is associated with maternal uniparental disomy (UPD) on chromosome 7. [4] This is the result of non-disjunction, where the person receives two copies of chromosome 7 from the mother (maternally inherited) rather than one from each parent.
The 15q11.2 BP1–BP2 microdeletion (Burnside–Butler syndrome) was the most common cytogenetic abnormality found in a recent study using ultra-high resolution chromosomal microarray analysis optimized for neurodevelopmental disorders of 10,351 consecutive patients presenting for genetic laboratory testing who had autism spectrum disorders ...
9q34 deletion syndrome is a rare genetic disorder. Terminal deletions of chromosome 9q34 have been associated with childhood hypotonia, a distinctive facial appearance and developmental disability. The facial features typically described include arched eyebrows, small head circumference, midface hypoplasia, prominent jaw and a pouting lower lip ...
