Francis Brown, D.O. When one takes an office he is always full of ideas that he" thinks are major problems. I think this coming year should be divided into six main objectives. FIRST :-Legislative problems. This first and most important object we shall and must maintain the Texas Medical Practice Act. We have practiced under this act for over forty years now. We are not asking for any change but just want justice. We are at the present time being examined under the basic science subjects and see no reason why a new board should be set up creating additional expense for the tax-payer. Equal representation should be placed on any board that is administering the examinations. We oppose no system of healing but must protect the Medical Practice Act. SECOND :-Public health. We must at all times be interested in the public health of the great state of Texas. Equal representation on all boards should be secured. vVe should, have at least, representation on the Board of Health. We must co­ operate ·with all the boards and public health offices to see that the public health of Texas is held on a high level. 4 Texas OSTEOPATHIC PHYSICIANS' Journal THIRD-Our schools. We must devote more time and help to our schools. Without our schools we will not be able to meet certain qualifications that are specified by the various states. Our schools have met the standards that we have set for them. We have asked for these improvements and they have met them. We are the ones that are responsible for our schools. Let each of us support our schools by sending in our help monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually. Pledges are fine but after all our schools cannot operate upon pledges. Be sure and take care of them. FOURTH:-Vocational guidance. We must keep the right kind of students in our schools. Interest students that you know can qualify for the standards that we have set up for them. Interest students that you will be proud to have carry on the osteopathic pro­ fession for you. A program is being set up here in our state. We are proud of the students that we have in our schools but we should have more. FIFTH :-Our central office with an executive secretary. You all expressed by your vote at the general assembly that we are ready for an Executive Secretary. It is remarkable that here in Texas we have come as far as we have. This is all due to one individual. He has ak, done a remarkable job. We have arrived at a time when one individual should devote his full time to this job. Many things can be taken care of such as the better organization of our districts, correlation of our files with the AOA, public health activities, state affairs, etc., increasing of our membership and notificatiorl' to each member as to the activities of our Osteopathic profession here in Texas. Let's locate this office where it will do the most good for all concerned, let no selfishness enter into it. We have started so let's have your comments as to the duties that you wish your organization and Executive Secretary to perform. SIXTH:-Auxiliary to our profession. Each district and city where there are a number of practicing osteopathic physicians should see that a Lady's Auxiliary is formed. Affiliating with the National Auxiliary is essential. Each osteopathic physician encourages the ones in the formation of an auxiliary for your district and city. Your support and cooperation is asked at all times. The Texas Associa­ tion of Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons is your organization. Devote all of the time you can with your profession. It should come first with each of you. There are o many ways that each osteopath can devote his time to his profession, do it now.

  • The History of the Relationship Between the Concept and Treatment of People with Down's Syndrome in Britain and America from 1866 to 1967
    THE HISTORY OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE CONCEPT AND TREATMENT OF PEOPLE WITH DOWN'S SYNDROME IN BRITAIN AND AMERICA FROM 1866 TO 1967. BY Lilian Serife ZihniB.Sc. P.G.C.E. FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN THE HISTORY OF MEDICINE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON 1 Abstract This thesis fills a gap in the history of mental handicap by focusing on a specific mentally handicapping condition, Down's syndrome, in Britain and America. This approach has facilitated an examination of how various scientific and social developments have actually affected a particular group of people with handicaps. The first chapter considers certain historiographical problems this research has raised. The second analyses the question of why Down's syndrome, which has certain easily identifiable characteristics associated with it, was not recognised as a distinct condition until 1866 in Britain. Subsequent chapters focus on the concept and treatment of Down's syndrome by the main nineteenth and twentieth century authorities on the disorder. The third chapter concentrates on John Langdon Down's treatment of 'Mongolian idiots' at the Royal Earlswood Asylum. The fourth chapter examines Sir Arthur Mitchell's study of 'Kalmuc idiots' in private care. The fifth considers how Down's and Mitchell's theories were developed by later investigators, with particular reference to George Shuttleworth's work. Archive materials from the Royal Albert, Royal Earlswood and Royal Scottish National Institutions are used. The sixth focuses on the late nineteenth century American concept and treatment of people with Down's syndrome through an analysis of the work of Albert Wilmarth.

  • Chapter Three a Pathological Embodiment This Equivocal Being
    Chapter Three A Pathological Embodiment This equivocal being, who seems to have been placed by nature on the very confines of humanity . Philippe Pinel The denial of intellectually disabled people's capacity for mutuality and sociality, for meaningful and intentional interaction, was underlined in my siblings' records. These records included a combination of medical, psychiatric, psychological, educational and behavioural reports. They also included the daily observations made by staff at the institution where two of my siblings went to live. My family has had to negotiate these professional interpretations and practices; interpretations and practices that have the power to shape the social world within which intellectually disabled people reside. This is not to suggest, however, that there is unity and uniformity amongst these professional reports. They are diverse but are also linked together by an implicit "symbolic scheme" (Sahlins 1976). In Culture and Practical Reason, Marshall Sahlins (1976) argues against materialist and utilitarian interpretations of culture, claiming instead that culture operates according to a "symbolic scheme". As Sahlins explains, his argument: . takes as the distinctive quality of man not that he must live in a material world . but that he does so according to a meaningful scheme of his own devising . It therefore takes as the decisive Chapter Three: A Pathological Embodiment page 102 quality of culture—as giving each mode of life the properties that characterize it—not that this culture must conform to

It is caused by the involvement of one or half of the third copy of chromosome 21. An extra copy of chromosome 21 that can be either complete or partial based on the type, causes deformity and related morphological and physiological abnormalities in the body systems.

  • Genetics of Down Syndrome: a Review
    International Journal of Scientific Research and Review ISSN NO: 2279-543X Genetics of Down Syndrome: A Review Kamal Mehta Asst. Professor, P.G Department of Zoology, Jagdish Chandra D.A.V College, Dasuya (Punjab)-144205, India. Email: [email protected] Abstract--Down syndrome is one of the most common chromosome abnormalities in humans genetically recognized as autosomal aneuploidy associated with physical growth delays, characteristic facial features, poor immune system and mild to moderate intellectual disability with average IQ value 40. It is associated with the development of multiple phenotypic as well as physiological effects such as congenital heart defect, epilepsy, leukemia, thyroid diseases, and mental disorders. It can be caused by different genetical mechanisms such as trisomy 21, translocation and mosaicism. Down syndrome can be identified during pregnancy by prenatal screening followed by diagnostic testing or after birth by direct observation and genetic testing. Key Words: Autosomal aneuploidy, 21 Trisomy, Maternal Age, Nondisjunction, Mental disability, Prenatal Screening. I. INTRODUCTION Down syndrome is one of the most common chromosome abnormalities in humans genetically recognized as autosomal aneuploidy associated with physical growth delays, characteristic facial features, poor immune system and mild to moderate intellectual disability with average IQ value 40, equivalent to the mental ability of an 8 or 9-year old child [1,2]. A number of health problems such as congenital heart defect, epilepsy, leukemia, thyroid diseases, and mental disorders are more frequently found in such individuals. Down syndrome accounts for occurrence of 8% congenital malformations. It is named after John Langdon Down, a British doctor who fully described the syndrome in 1866[3].

  • On the Antiquity of Trisomy 21: Moving Towards a Quantitative Diagnosis of Down Syndrome in Historic Material Culture
    ISSN 2150-3311 JOURNAL OF CONTEMPORARY ANTHROPOLOGY RESEARCH ARTICLE VOLUME II 2011 ISSUE 1 On the Antiquity of Trisomy 21: Moving Towards a Quantitative Diagnosis of Down Syndrome in Historic Material Culture John M. Starbuck Ph.D. Candidate Department of Anthropology The Pennsylvania State University University Park, Pennsylvania Copyright © John M. Starbuck On the Antiquity of Trisomy 21: Moving Towards a Quantitative Diagnosis of Down Syndrome in Historic Material Culture John M. Starbuck Ph.D. Candidate Department of Anthropology The Pennsylvania State University University Park, Pennsylvania ABSTRACT Down syndrome was first medically described as a separate condition from other forms of cognitive impairment in 1866. Because it took so long for Down syndrome to be recognized as a clinical entity deserving its own status, several investigators have questioned whether or not Down syndrome was ever recognized before 1866. Few cases of ancient skeletal remains have been documented to have Down syndrome-like characteristics. However, several forms of material culture may depict this condition. Within this paper the history of our understanding of Down syndrome is discussed. Both skeletal remains and different forms of material culture that may depict Down syndrome are described, and where relevant, debates within the literature about how likely such qualitative diagnoses are to be correct are also discussed. Suggestions are then made for ways in which a quantitative diagnosis can be made to either strengthen or weaken qualitative arguments for or against the diagnosis of Down syndrome in different forms of historic material culture. Starbuck: On the Antiquity of Trisomy 21 19 INTRODUCTION Down syndrome was first described in the medical literature by John Langdon Down in 1866.
