Arousal modulation in females with fragile X or Turner syndrome.
The present study was carried out to examine physiological arousal modulation (heart activity and skin conductance, across baseline and cognitive tasks, in females with fragile X or Turner syndrome and a comparison group of females with neither syndrome. Relative to the comparison group, for whom a greater increase in skin conductance was associated with poor arithmetic performance and less ris...

INTRODUCTION Turner syndrome is characterized by the absence, total or partial, of one X chromosome in females, being one of the most frequent chromosomal abnormalities. Diagnosis is made by karyotype. Turner syndrome manifestations include primary hypogonadism, before or after puberty (gonadal dysgenesis). The degree and extent of gonadal disfunction are variable.

متن کاملVisuospatial executive function in Turner syndrome: functional MRI and neurocognitive findings
Turner syndrome is a genetic disorder that results from an abnormal or missing X chromosome in females and is typically associated with impairments in visuospatial, but not verbal, information processing. These visuospatial processing impairments may be exacerbated with increased task demands, such as those engaged during working memory (WM). While previous studies have examined spatial WM func...
متن کاملDextrocardia and Hiatal Hernia in a Patient with Turner Syndrome
Turner syndrome is a sex-chromosome disorder occurring in one out of 2500 female births and characterized by growth retardation, gonadal dysgenesis and cardiovascular anomalies. The 45, XO karyotype is the most frequent type of this disease. Herein, we report on a 6-year-old girl with Turner syndrome and 45, XO karyotype presenting with short stature. She had dextrocardia and hiatal hernia. To ...
