Children with down syndrome have a life expectancy of only 12 years. 1959 Trisomy Has A Genetic Explanation The rising field of cytogenetic helps to genetically describe Down, Klinefelter, and Turner syndromes. 1980 A Dedicated Organization Is Established SOFT, a non-profit dedicated to Trisomy 18...
Isabel Barroeta (Spain) provided a thorough overview of the link between AD and DS, including recent work highlighting the association of this disease with mortality and life expectancy and a systematic review and meta-analysis revealing the conserved age at diagnosis in this population (Iulita et ...
Median life expectancy was 12 days; 11 days for males and 14 days for females ( = 0.87). The short-term survival rates of 1 week, 4 weeks, and 6 months were 58%, 32%, and 10%, respectively. The long-term survival rates of 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years were 6%, 6%, and 3%...
Life expectancy can be normal in trisomy 8 mosaic individuals. • Trisomy 9 mosaicism results from a meiotic error. • Common US findings in trisomy 9 mosaicism include IUGR and amniotic fluid abnormalities, craniofacial, cardiac, skeletal, and urinary findings. • Individuals with mosaic trisom...
The viable trisomies share a few defects, including cardiovascular and craniofacial defects, intellectual disability and shortened life expectancy. Although significant progresses have been made for trisomy 21 using induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) technologies,4–6 the pathogenic mechanisms of trisomy...

One of the most common cytogenetic alterations found in MDSs is trisomy 8 (+8), which is present in 10% of patients with chromosomal abnormalities [12,13]. Patients with isolated +8 have an intermediate cytogenetic risk and are also characterized by clinical heterogeneity: life expectancy is di...
