The prevalence of the disorder in Down syndrome is difficult to determine as there are no standardized criteria for dementia in individuals with mental disability. 5 State-wide information systems were used to investigate 2,534 affected individuals and over 16,000 controls with other forms of mental disability. Dementia was defined in terms of declining adaptive behavior. No excess in dementia was seen until age 50. 3 at 61–70. In the oldest group the prevalence of dementia was 50% using the most lenient criteria and 15% for the most severe.
Genetics & Reproductive Risks The unusual and puzzling characteristics of inheritance of the fragile X syndrome arise from a “dynamic” mutation: the amplification of a repetitive sequence of 3 nucleotides (cytosine-guanine-guanine). 3 contains between 2–60 copies of CGG. An increase in the number of CGG repeats to 60–200 copies is known as a premutation characteristic of normal transmitting males and some normal carrier females. A premutation is significant because, when passed to offspring, it may develop into a full mutation (many hundreds to thousands of CGG repeats).
