Noonan’S Syndrome

A dermatoglyphic analysis has been carried out in 7 boys and 5 girls affected by Noonan's syndrome. No deviation from the general population values was found with respect to individual quantitative value, A line termination, absence of C line, a-b ridge count, hypothenar patterns, and presence of p proximal triradius on soles.Whorls were however increased on fingertips and the axial triradius t, as in Turner's syndrome, was in 21% of the cases in position t′ or t″.

The Subject

This study is the second in a series of articles dealing with the situation of parents of children with disabilities or developmental disorders. The subject of the research are the symptoms of the burnout syndrome in the parents of children with disabilities as examined using the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) questionnaire. With respect to the factors diff erentiating the study’s results, gender, place of residence and the type of disability were taken into account. A total of 315 people participated in the study, 246 mothers and 69 fathers. Six groups of parents were distinguished, based on the type of disability or developmental disorder of their children, i.e.: autism, Asperger syndrome, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, ADHD and mental retardation.

Full Picture

Language deficits occur in a variety of developmental disorders including autism spectrum disorders, Down syndrome, fragile X syndrome, specific language impairment, and Williams syndrome. This paper describes the specific pattern of linguistic deficits in each of these disorders in terms of speech production, semantic, and syntactic abilities as well as the relationship between cognitive and linguistic skills and the presence of a deviant or delayed pattern of development. In the spirit of synthesis across diverse literatures, preliminary comparisons among the language profiles of these disorders are made. The full picture, however, is incomplete given the current state of the literature, which tends to focus on the analysis of a narrow range of linguistic phenomena within a single disorder. The field is in need of research that systematically compares these disorders and leads to detailed descriptions of linguistic phenotypes of each disorder.
