The present study suggests that genotoxic damage results from exposure to chronic low doses of ionizing radiation in nuclear medicine departments. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Significant decreases in MI and PI were concentration dependent at both treatment times. The decrease in NDI was also concentration-dependent at 48-h treatment period. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis : Only 5–10% of patients survive past 12 months of age. References: [3] [6] [8] Down syndrome (trisomy 21) [amboss.com]

Prognosis The prognosis is variable and depends on the severity of the disease. The infant mortality rate is relatively low ( 4%); in adults mortality is higher than that of the rest of the adult population. [orpha.net]

The authors point out that some of the chromosomal abnormalities have revealed targets for cancer treatment, and others have clinical application in the diagnosis of certain types of neoplasms and in the formulation of a prognosis. [nejm.org]

The assay may be used to dichotomize CLL (the 13q-, 12, or normal genotype group versus the 11q- or 17p- group) and may be used as an aid in determining disease prognosis in combination with additional biomarkers, morphology, and other clinical information [molecular.abbott]

Currently, no teratogenic agent, environmental factor, or defective genes have been recognized as etiologic factors for this type of urogenital malformation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

DiGeorge syndrome, velocardiofacial syndrome, cardiofacial syndrome) but are now known to be etiologically identical and are referred to as 22q11.2 DS. [orpha.net]

In a craniofacial clinic it may be important to identify subtle dysmorphism and DD to establish a chromosomal etiology. Conflicts of Interest The authors declare that they have no conflicts of interest. [hindawi.com]

Thus, cytogenetic analysis of spontaneous miscarriages is essential to establish the etiology of fetal losses and to assess patients with risks of recurrence in future pregnancies. [karger.com]

Karyotype assessment is important to consider in all epilepsies where the etiology is uncertain as dysmorphic features may be subtle or not apparent. Karyotype examination should be extended to 50-100 mitoses to exclude mosaicism. [epilepsydiagnosis.org]

For the purpose of biological dosimetry after partial body exposure, an extension of the lymphocyte culture time is suggested at least for doses or 3.0 Gy of 200 kV X-rays and or 0.5 Gy of or 2.1 MeV neutrons in order to prevent a systematic underestimation [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Now 5, he was born with a genetic chromosomal abnormality that prevents his standing. Its high definition imaging may also detect other less common chromosomal abnormalities. [diki.pl]
