“…Most people with DS have motor disorders due to alterations in the central nervous system (reduced brain size and volume, lower neural density, low synaptic density and delayed myelination), musculoskeletal characteristics (muscle hypotonia, joint laxity, body proportion) and health problems (cardiovascular abnormalities, respiratory diseases, sensory deficits, hormonal imbalance, and epilepsy). 23 Studies have revealed reduced size of the frontal, occipital and temporal lobes, with lower volume of the hippocampus and cerebellum, which directly influence the performance of voluntary movements, gait, body balance, motor coordination and laterality. 19 However, the central nervous system is not a rigid structure, but rather a structure with considerable adaptability and the possibility of modifying some of its functional and morphological properties in response to changes in the environment.…”

“…This is the most common cause of mental impairment and determines the trend to pathological expression of brain structure and function in people with this syndrome (Agulló & González, 2006;Sommer & Henrique-Silva, 2008;Torquato, Lança, Pereira, Carvalho, & Silva, 2013). This information is also regulated by other genes of the individual, so that the variability observed between people with DS is notable.…”

“…This information is also regulated by other genes of the individual, so that the variability observed between people with DS is notable. At the same time, the brain is not a fixed and unchanging structure, but highly plastic, so the environment and therapeutic intervention can exert decisive influence in the development of the individual (Agulló & González, 2006).…”
