Disease information
DYSLEXIA
Dislexia, is the term that is used to mainly identify
a
disease
that it
has
to do with
problems
of learning or upheavals in the cognitivas and comunicativas abilities, in the areas of the
language
, the reading, the writing and the mathematics.
The difficulties of the learning, generally, whatever these are, interfere with the capacity of the boy to process information and among them they are: the mental delay, the
cerebral
hyperactivity
,
autismo
,
tumors
,
depression
,
syndrome
of fetal
alcoholism
, auditory injuries in the head, losses, exhibition to the lead,

Dislexia, is nevertheless
a
problem
that presents / displays
children
and
children
whose intellectual coefficient is
normal
and apparently do not present / display another kind of physical or mental
problems
that can explain their difficulty to learn to read and to communicate verbally with the others.
This
problem
as much affects between
a
10% or 15% of the population student as adult and with
a
greater incidence in men than in women. One calculates that more or less they can have
a
boy with dislexia in
a
group of 25 students. Some cases usually are fleeting and very complicated others.
A
severe additional
problem
is that since the education of the first scholastic years is focused to
develop
to abilities of reading, writing,
language
and mathematics, these
children
generally are catalogued of loose or delayed mental, by lack of
a
suitable and opportune diagnosis, because its level is below awaited based on its age and intelligence.
Dislexia also affects short term the memory and the perception of order and sequence.
Between the less serious forms of manifestation, they are: cecear or stuttering, to
arm
puzzle, to tie cords of the shoes and other fine coordinations. Between most serious it is the incapacity to interpret certain sounds or
muscular
or physical words or
problems
.
Upheavals that affect the motor coordination and other abilities in absence of neurological
problems
,
muscular
or physical.
These include / understand the difficulty to learn to write, to tie cords of the shoes, to
arm
puzzle and to carry out other tasks that require
a
fine coordination.
The
children
and
children
who suffer dislexia, generally, have
a
deficient coordination from small and the
language
problems
are obvious from early age. They take generally in learning to walk and to speak.
But
the upheavals that affect the scholastic abilities show generally when the young one already attends the school.
Dislexia goes sometimes united to another kind of
problems
of learning like the disgrafía, that is the difficulty in the correct layout of the letters, in the parallelism of the lines, the size of the letters, the pressure of the writing and the disortografía, that is the difficulty for the correct use of the orthographic rules from most basic to most precise.
Also it is associated to pronunciación difficulties, mainly of new, long words or that contain combinations of letters of the type of which they produce difficulties to him in the reading.
Another related aspect is discalculia, related to the learning of the mathematics.
Between the factors considered like predisponentes, they are:
the inheritance, when some relative with dislexia
has
existed in the
family
.
the low
weight
when being born, caused by bad feeding of the
mother
, tabaquismo,
alcoholism
, drogradicción or abuse of drugs during the
pregnancy
.
the lack of early stimulation on the part of the parents and other people who take care of the baby, their negligence and abandonment.
Some investigators affirm that also it is possible to have to the excessive or insufficient
development
of some of the sides or
cerebral
hemispheres.
