1 Issues and Challenges in XYY Syndrome ERIN TORRES MSN, CRNP-PMH DEVELOPMENTAL NEUROGENOMICS UNIT, NIMH NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH BETHESDA, MD, USA

2 Objectives Discuss the profile of mental health issues present in a large clinical research sample of individuals with XYY syndrome Discuss the wide range of presentations seen in youth with XYY syndrome Discuss the priorities for future research on the profile of developmental and mental issues in individuals with XYY syndrome

3 Sex Chromosome Aneuploidy Typically there are 22 pairs of chromosomes plus one pair of sex chromosomes (X,Y) 47, XYY-males have an extra Y chromosome Mosaic vs non-mosaic

4 Sex Chromosome Aneuploidy Typically there are 22 pairs of chromosomes plus one pair of sex chromosomes (X,Y) 47, XYY-males have an extra Y chromosome Mosaic vs non-mosaic

5 Sex Chromosome Aneuploidy Typically there are 22 pairs of chromosomes plus one pair of sex chromosomes (X,Y) 47, XYY-males have an extra Y chromosome Mosaic vs non-mosaic

6 XYY Occurs in about 1 out of 1,000 newborn males Believed that many men with XYY are undiagnosed Increased amount of fetuses are being diagnosed due to increased amount of prenatal testing

7 First Reports , XYY first identified Early studies falsely associated XYY with violent crime 1965 Patricia Jacobs conducted a research study examining XYY males in institutional settings State Hospital in Scotland-high number of men with XYY Careful studies of XYY began in 1976 with Witkin et al

Motor and language difficulties ADHD and externalizing disorders (e.g. oppositional defiant disorder) Difficulties in social interaction and Autism Spectrum Disorder diagnoses GOOD REVIEWS: 1.

21 Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Persistent deficits in social communication and social interaction across multiple contexts Restricted repetitive patterns of behavior, interests or activities Symptoms must have been present during early developmental period Symptoms cause clinically significant impairment in social, occupational or other important areas of functioning

22 ASD in XYY Social Communication deficits Difficulty socializing with peers Repetitive behaviors Difficulty with change Preoccupation with a certain object or subject

23 Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) A persistent pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity that interferes with functioning or development 1 Inattention must have 6 or more symptoms present for at least 6 months 2 Hyperactivity and impulsivity must have 6 or more symptoms present for at least 6 months Several symptoms present before 12 Symptoms present in 2 or more settings Clearly interfere with functioning

24 ADHD in XYY Inattentive Hyperactive/Impulsive Difficult to engage Unable to sit through a meal Loses focus Doing before thinking Unable to follow multiple step instructions Fidgety or restless Combined Having symptoms from both categories that cause an impairment in functioning

25 Tic Disorders Motor Tic Uncontrollable muscle movements frequent eye blinking raising eyebrows scrunching up nose shrugging shoulders Vocal Tic Uncontrolled noises clearing throat sniffing grunting animal sounds Tourette s Both motor and vocal tics

26 Tics in XYY Motor tic Mouth movements Vocal tic Sniffing
