Birth defects .... Cystic Diseases Kidney problem 3
Posted in 2013
Most of the time when cystic kidney disease is mentioned, polycystic kidney disease (PKD)
comes to mind.   There are two types of polycystic kidney disease are:   autosomal
dominant disease (ADPKD), formerly called adult PKD, and autosomal recessive PKD.   
Let me give you a mini-genetics lesson to help explain the two diseases.    Each of us has
a set of genes from each parent, so we have a double of every gene.  In diseases where the
trait is dominant, getting an abnormal gene from either parent gives you the disease.   So in the
typical case of a parent with a dominant disease, the parent got one normal gene from one
parent who was healthy and an abnormal gene from a parent with the disease.      So the child 
of that parent has a 50-50 chance of getting the disease, depending on whether he got the 
diseased gene or the healthy one.  Having one gene with the disease means you have the
disease.   In the case of parents of a child with a recessive disease, both parents have one normal
and one abnormal gene, and the normal, rather than the abnormal gene, predominates.    A child of
such parents has a one out of two chance of getting the abnormal gene from each parent, or a one
out of four chance of getting an abnormal gene from both parents.  Having both genes of the set
abnormal gives the disease. So parents of the child with ARPKD are healthy and do not know that
they carry the disease until they have a child with the disease.   A parent who has ADPKD knows
that there is a 50-50 chance, one out of two of each child born to that parent having the disease.
There have been three different gene defects found that cause ADPKD.    The gene for ARPKD is
being characterized and is on chromosome 6.

Your mind is the powerful tool to avoid many defective births...  Be positive and follow healthy habits to have Healthy child...  I wish it


My advise
1...   Practice positive thinking
2..... Follow healthy habits

Poor sleep in Pregnancy causes pre-term or low birth weight Brought to U.... http://successgain.us     and    http://successgain.info My memories Poor sleep in Pregnancy causes pre-term or low birth weight Posted in 2014 Pregnancy can pose serious challenges to sleeping well. Poor quality and too little sleep are common during pregnancy, when many women experience fragmented sleep and symptoms of insomnia. Even women who don’t generally experience sleep problems find that during pregnancy they have difficulty falling asleep and staying asleep, as well as trouble getting enough sleep. We talk a lot about sleep issues for new mothers. But new research   suggests we should be paying more attention to the sleep health of expectant mothers as well. Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center found   links between both the quality and quantity of pregnant women’s sleep and complications at birth, including low birth weight and pre-term births. The link betw

Fibre deficiency during Pregnancy...4

Fiber deficiency during Pregnancy...4 Brought to U.... http://successgain.us     and    http://successgain.info   7...  Why do we need to eat fibre? It used to be called “roughage”, and people tried to get rid of it.  Now we have heard plenty about it, but why do we need fibre in our diet? Dietary fibre is actually a form of  carbohydrate that does not get digested by enzymes in our small intestine, and so its sugar units are not absorbed into the bloodstream.  Dietary fibre is therefore known as ‘non-glyceami"‘. However, fibre has important effects on other nutrients within the small intestine and through effects on the large intestine, where few other nutrients arrive intact.  It has a range of valuable health effects: Smooths out digestion and absorption of glucose and fats in the small intestine.  It reduces the Glycaemic index of a meal. Provides fuel for the healthful or  good bacteria in our large intestine  which in turn benefit us by making Vitamin
