Toxins can cause damage to the prenatal fetus that can result in mental retardation by interferring with brain development. It can occur at any time during the pregancy, that is what pregnant women have to be very careful about what they come in contact with and what they consume.
the acute bacterial infection whose toxins can damage the heart muscle and peripheral nerves is what
Mental retardation, often known as intellectual impairment, is a condition in which a person's IQ is lower than normal. Normal people have an IQ of 80 or higher, while impaired people have an IQ of less than 80. The child's development, thinking, adaptability, decision-making capacity, and interactive abilities are all impaired to varying degrees. Genetic variables include Down's syndrome and Mongolism. Birth traumas might result in cerebral palsy or a low APGAR score. Infections of the brain and its coverings are known as encephalitis and meningitis. Infections in the mother during pregnancy, such as CMV and rubella. The mother uses alcohol, drugs, and cigarettes while pregnant. Late pregnancy is one in which the mother is older than 35 years old. Birth defects cause a child's development to be disrupted. Cretinism and hyperthyroidism are metabolic diseases. Exposure to toxins, radiation, and poisons such as lead and mercury. A nutritional insufficiency such as iodine deficiency is an example. Head injuries are a common occurrence. Down syndrome is a genetic disease characterized by the presence of one extra chromosome in addition to the normal 46. It is a severe neurological illness that impairs one's capacity to control posture, balance, and movement by affecting the brain's motor functions. Many people have used homeopathy to help them live healthy and normal life. In Hyderabad, Dr. Care Homeopathy provides Homeopathy Treatment for Mental Retardation and Autism.
The liver cannot detoxify the toxins , drugs in the body.
Possibly, depending on the toxins inhaled.
Viral toxins are proteins produced by some viruses that can cause harm to host cells or organisms. These toxins can disrupt normal cellular functions, leading to cell death or damage. Examples of viral toxins include the rotavirus NSP4 protein and the diphtheria toxin produced by the bacteriophage Diphtheria.
Poisons produced by pathogenic bacteria are called "bacterial toxins."
Yes, cats can suffer from brain damage due to various causes such as trauma, toxins, infections, and certain medical conditions. Symptoms of brain damage in cats can vary and may include changes in behavior, coordination issues, seizures, and altered mental status. If you suspect your cat has brain damage, consult a veterinarian for proper evaluation and treatment.
There are many reasons this happens. Some of the more common causes of mental retardation, which can range from mild to severe, are: * If the mother drinks, smokes, takes illegal drugs (and some prescription drugs) while pregnant, it can cause mental retardation. * If the baby suffers oxygen deprivation during birth, that can also lead to brain damage. For example, if the umbilical cord becomes wrapped around the baby's neck during birth, it cuts off the baby's air supply, and can result in brain damage, or even death. * Another cause of oxygen deprivation is meconium aspiration. Meconium is the first bowel movement of a baby, and if it occurs in the womb, the baby can aspirate (breathe it into his lungs) it, resulting in decreased oxygen intake. This rarely occurs unless the baby is overdue by at least two weeks, but is life threatening when it does happen. * Hydrocephalus (or water on the brain) can also cause mental retardation. This, however, is relatively rare, and sometimes occurs in association with spina bifida (a disorder of the spine). In many cases, it can be surgically treated by drilling a small hole in the skull, and inserting a small tube to allow the excess fluid to drain. In most cases, if this condition is diagnosed and treated early enough, the chances of normal and mental physical development are good. * Down's Syndrome, which affects almost 2% of all babies born, is also a cause of mental retardation. In the normal human body, all cells, except egg and sperm cells, have 46 chromosomes each. When a child is born with 47 chromosomes in each cell, the result is Down's Syndrome. * If the pregnancy is a result of first degree incest (father and daughter, sister and brother), the risk of retardation is much greater than it would be had the mother not been related to the baby's father. Second degree incest (uncle and niece, first cousin and first cousin) can also sometimes result in mental retardation, but usually not as severe as first degree incest. * If the mother is age 40 or older, the risk of mental retardation is greater than that of a child born to a mother of a younger age.
Infectious bacteria can make people sick. They are able to reproduce quickly in the body, giving off chemicals called toxins. These toxins are able to damage tissue also.
Placenta gets damaged by toxins like alcohol or chemicals from cigarettes. This leads to prevention of blood from mixing and/or an affected child by transportation of toxins from mother to child.
I AM NOT A DOCTOR OF ANY KIND mental retardation doent have a specific cure but it is usually treated with therapy where the person suffering has a group or one on one session where they learn things - slower than normal. this is probably the only way to, not really cure, but more of helping the person learn normal things.
Environmental factors like infections, drugs and exposures to radiation
