Trisomy X symptoms: tall stature, round face, hypertelorism (wide-spread eyes), micrognathia (small chin), epicanthal folds (inner eye folds), low-set ears. It sounds like a really nice "syndrome" to have, being "super female" Lol

Answer: Probably

Question: Micrognathia??? I'm in my last year of hygiene school and I'm going my ortho project on Micrognathia. I need to find web pictures (yes...has to be web) of the condition. I tried google, but I can only get pics of their faces. I also need their teeth (crowded mandibular teeth due to the condition) if anyone...especially dental professionals could direct me to a good site to find picuters showing what their mouths would look like then that would be great. Thanks.

Question: Should Tricho-Rhino-Phalangeal Syndrome (TRPS) Be Eligible And Qualify To Get SSI And Medicaid From SSA? There has been more than 192 distinct Ectodermal Dysplasia Syndrome (EDS) disorders that has been described up to this present date. Trichorhinophalangeal Syndrome Type I (TRPS-I/TRP-I) is an extremely rare genetic multi-system disorder syndrome which is a complex Ectodermal Dysplasia Syndrome (EDS). TRPS is one the rarer forms of EDS. EDS is an extremely rare genetic syndrome. Tricho-Rhino-Phalangeal Tricho - Hair Rhino - Nose Phalangeal - Finger / Toe There are 3 types of Trichorhinophalangeal (TRPS). 1. Trichorhinophalangeal Type I (TRPS-I/TRP-I) 2. Trichorhinophalangeal Type 2 (TRPS-II/TRP-II) / Langer-Giedion Syndrome (LGS) 3. Trichorhinophalangeal Type 3 (TRPS-III/TRP-III) / Sugio-Kajii Syndrome (SKS) TRPS causes you to have unusual facial features (bulbous rounded [pear-shaped] nose, thin upper lip, long, flat area between nose and upper lip [philtrum]), thin nails, small nails, cone-shaped epiphyses (CSEs) [coning of phalangeal epiphyses in fingers and toes]. TRPS can also cause uncontrolled shaking of fingers, micrognathia (abnormally small jaw), high-arched palate, missing chin bone, dental anomalies (crowded crooked teeth, under-bite, etc), short height, unusually big prominent ears, 1/2 sparse thin eyebrows (both outer lateral eyebrows are missing), thin sparse eyelashes, thin fine sparse scalp hair, curved fingers and/or toes being abnormally short (brachydactyly), wide hips, waddle gait, flat feet, weak unstable ankles, gun-stock elbows, speech Disabilities, and etc. People that have TRPS can have joint problems like stiffness, laxity [extremely extensible ligaments and tendons] [hyper-mobility], swelling lateral displacement of the patella (kneecap), and overall pain. The degenerative process in TRPS can resemble early arthrosis. People with TRPS can have problems with back, knees, feet, degenerative hip disease, and can also have problems with arthritis, osteoarthritis, and upper respiratory tract infections (URTI or URI). People with TRPS-II/TRP-II [Langer-Giedion Syndrome (LGS)] can have mild to moderate learning difficulties and multiple bony growths (exostoses). There are people with TRPS including myself that get Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Medicaid. When I was born, Trichorhinophalangeal Syndrome (TRPS-I/TRP-I) took a SEVERE turn in me causing me to have various other ADDITIONAL physical Disabilities. My late mother also had Trichorhinophalangeal Syndrome Type I (TRPS-I/TRP-I). The way my hands and fingers are, uncontrolled shaking of my fingers, and the coning of my phalangeal epiphyses makes doing things with my fingers and hands to be difficult or impossible to do in terms of grasping and fingering of fine and gross movements which falls in the SSA's Bluebook 1.00 Musculoskeletal System - Adult Category and in the 1.02 Section of Major dysfunction of a joint(s) (due to any cause which is the original reason why I applied and got Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Medicaid on my FIRST TRY. This is a picture of an unidentified person's fingers affected with TRPS which is how my fingers and hands look. http://www.scielo.br/img/revistas/rbr/v4… This is a picture of an unidentified person's feet and toes affected with TRPS Type 2 which is somewhat close in how my feet and toes look. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/co… Unidentified person in article is how I look in TRPS facial features and TRPS hair. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles… Question 1: Based on the descriptions of Trichorhinophalangeal Syndrome (TRPS) and TRPS photos, should people with TRPS Type 1, or with TRPS Type 2, or with TRPS Type 3 be eligible and qualify to get Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Medicaid from the Social Security Administration (SSA)??? Question 2: Why or Why Not??? Thank You! *Both me and my only child are Social Security Administration Registered-Certified-Recognized Disabled Persons With Disabilities.* I am also a Registered-Certified-Recognized Member of the Ectodermal Dysplasias International Registry.* I am also a Registered-Certified-Recognized Member of the National Foundation of Ectodermal Dysplasias* --- *I am proud to be a "Gimp", a "Crip", a "Cripple", a "Capper", a "Wheelie", a "Wheeler", a "Freak ", and a "PWD Freak"!* --- *AFO WC PMD PHPSSP RCRMEDIR RCRMNFED MLRCRD SSA PD-PWD*---*PWDRHIP*---*Wowasakeikcupi! * Creator-Originator of the phrases of - Pulling PWD Rank - PWD Insiders Language - Person With Disabilities Rank Has Its Privileges - PWDRHIP*. To Teddy & Chiliswoman and Kaninchen: Please do NOT assume that I have a son because I have NEVER posted the sex/gender of my child on Yahoo Answers. You both are only GUESSING at the sex/gender of my child. To Teddy & Chiliswoman: The point of this question is should "Tricho-Rhino-Phalangeal Syndrome (TRPS) Be Eligible And Qualify To Get SSI And Medicaid From SSA"? I was only using myself as an example to explain what TRPS is and how TRPS can affect a person. Some Non-PWDs (Outsiders) might not consider TRPS to be a Disability and to be not worthy of SSI and/or SSDI. I am curious to know what PWDs and Non-PWDs (Outsiders) think about TRPS and whether they think that TRPS is or is not worthy of SSI and/or SSDI. To Kaninchen: Yes, TRPS is a complex syndrome for one of the reasons that TRPS is a complex Ectodermal Dysplasia Syndrome (EDS) and is also a multi-system genetic syndrome disorder. You did not me insult at all,by asking on how do I type all of this. I am able to type at a much slower rate than an average person. I do have trouble typing in various ways (speed, stretching, general movement, keeping a steady pace, and etc.). The only thing that I have in my favor is that I know the keyboard fairly well and able to do some "Touch-Typing" (Blind-Typing). I am looking at "Word Expansion" (Text Expansion) computer programs which I can use as a "Disability Accommodation". To Kaninchen: I am glad that you enjoyed the article web-link that I posted. Yes, I do have to figure out how to do things differently. --- Example: I can not use a paring knife to peel vegetables and fruits but I am able to use a vegetable peeler to peel vegetables and fruits. --- Example: I am a musician that can play by note and by ear both and have given public SOLO musical performances. I play the "5-String Electric Bass Guitar", some "Acoustic Guitar", and some "Electric Guitar". I am currently unable to play guitar chords but I do play some "Finger-Style Playing". I also play some "Piano", some "Organ", and some "Keyboards" by doing "Chord Playing". I also play some "Electric Laptop Steel Guitar", some "Harmonica", some "Spoons", some "Paper-Bag", some "Tambourine", and some "Musical Rub-Board" ("Musical Wash-Board"). I also play the "Irish Tin Whistle" ("Penny Tin Whistle"), the "Recorder" and the "Flute". To play some of the musical instruments that I do, you need to be able t

Answer: I would think so, not just because both you and your son gets SSI, but also because it seems to be a pretty complex syndrome. The pictures show lots of deformity of the hands and feet, so I would think that it would be hard to do everyday things. My stupid doctors think my hands are deformed, and I know that I have to do some things a bit differently, but my hands don't look like the ones in the pictures. So if I have to figure out how to do things differently, then I would think that you have to, too, right? Also, and this is NOT meant to be an insult at all, but how do you type all of this? I mean, looking at the pictures of the hands affected with this syndrome, it looks like it would be hard to type. I don't know though...I know that it's taking me a while to type this answer, but I'm pretty sore and tired today... By the way, that's a cool article you posted (the third link). Sorry if this doesn't help much!

Question: a&p and nursing help!? im in a nursing program and need help with these questions! :) i already have 4 of these done and just have these 2 to go! if anyone could answer both that would be awesome! but if you can only do one that would be great too! thanks to anyone for their help! Frank Black, 56, was admitted 30 minutes ago to the short-procedure unit. He'd undergone a percutaneous liver biopsy to rule out chronic hepatitis B. He has been placed on his right side to splint the puncture site, with the bed flat. His vital signs have been stable: pulse, 66/minute; blood pressure 140/82; respirations, 18/minute. Fifteen minutes later, Mr. Black has become restless. His skin is cool and clammy. His blood pressure has dropped to 100/72. His pulse is now 102, and his respirations are 24/minute and deep. Mr. Black's words are slurred, and he appears confused. He also appears uncomfortable, and touches his abdomen. Only minutes later, Mr. Black's pulse is 110, weak and thready. His blood pressure is 94/62; his respirations are 26/minute and slightly labored. His dressing is stained with bright red blood, and his abdomen feels firmer than it did before the biopsy. Questions: 1. What is your assessment of the situation? 2. What physiologic mechanisms for compensation are functioning? Explain in detail. 3. Why is Mr. Black’s skin cool and clammy? Explain. 4. What must you do immediately to save this patient’s life? ______________________________________… Joey was born at term after an uneventful pregnancy. At birth he was cyanosed and required oxygen from the first few minutes of life. He was born with abnormal external features including micrognathia (small jaw), large slanted eyes, and low set prominent ears with notched pinnae. Within the first 36 hours of life he had episodes of tetany. Serum calcium low Serum phosphorus high PTH (parathyroid hormone) assay negative Hemoglobin normal WBC count low Serum IgG, IgM, IgA normal Chest radiograph right-sided aortic arch /absent thymic shadow Karyotype deletion on long arm of chromosome 22 Questions: 1. What is the most likely diagnosis? Why? 2. Why is he hypocalcemic and hyperphosphatemic? Explain in detail. 3. What division of the immune system will be deficient in this child? Why? 4. To what sort of infections will Joey be especially susceptible? 5. How is this immunodeficiency treated? 6. What is the chance that future siblings will be affected?

Answer: Whoa im doing the exact same thing. lol. Where do you go to school? Case 3 - Frank Black. 1. hemmorrhaging. 2. Body is going into shock. Hypovolemic shock is severe blood loss and fluid loss which make the heart unable to pump blood to the body and it can cause many organs to stop working. 3. Because he is going into shock and losing blood. 4. Assesment by MD - most likely will be getting patient to OR to find out where bleeding is coming from. Case 5 - Joey 1. 22q11. 2 deletion syndrom - because of the karyotype. Hope that helps some! I have most of the others done as well. If you wanted to compare answers we could maybe do that! (:
