Difficulties learning to read (dyslexia), to spell (dysorthography), to concentrate or to coordinate complex gestures (dyspraxia)… “Dys” disorders are language and learning disorders. These “dys” can have consequences on schooling, daily life and lead to integration difficulties for these children. 40% of them have several associated learning disorders.

What are the different types of “dys” disorders? What do we know about their causes? What support and support exist?

Dr Catherine Billard, neuropediatrician, former head of the Referral Center for Language Disorders of the Neuropediatric Rehabilitation Unit at Bicêtre University Hospital in Val-de-Marne Andréa Ndouna Depenaudspeech therapist at CHU Amissa in Franceville in Gabon.

► At the end of the program, we talk about the results of a study carried out by thePasteur Institute and the CNRS in collaboration with the GHU Paris Psychiatry and Neurosciences, Inserm and the CEA. This study demonstrates a dysfunction of certain neurons in the amygdala during a depressive episode which would be at the origin of the negative perception of the environment.

**Interview with⁤ Dr. Catherine Billard and Andréa Ndouna ⁣Depenaud on “Dys” Disorders**

*Host*: Welcome to our ⁣program! Today, we’re⁢ diving into an important topic that affects many children: ‍“dys” disorders. ​Joining us⁢ are Dr. ‌Catherine Billard, a ⁣neuropediatrician ⁤and former ‍head of the​ Referral Center for Language Disorders at Bicêtre University ‍Hospital, and ⁢Andréa‌ Ndouna Depenaud, a​ speech therapist at CHU Amissa in ⁤Gabon. Thank you both for being here.

*Dr. ⁢Billard*: ‌Thank you for having ⁣us.

*Andréa Ndouna Depenaud*: It’s ​a pleasure to ⁣be here.

*Host*: ​Let’s start by defining what “dys” disorders are. Dr. Billard, could you give us an overview?

*Dr. Billard*: ‍Certainly. “Dys” disorders​ include a range of language and learning disabilities, such as dyslexia, which affects reading, dysorthography ‍for spelling, ⁢and dyspraxia, which impacts ⁣coordination⁤ and complex gestures.‍ These disorders can significantly ⁣affect ⁣a child’s educational ‌experiences and​ daily functioning.

*Host*: That sounds challenging. Andréa, what percentage of children with these disorders face additional learning difficulties?

*Andréa Ndouna⁣ Depenaud*: Research shows that‌ approximately 40%⁢ of children with a “dys” disorder⁣ may⁢ also have multiple​ associated learning disabilities. This can ​complicate their education and‍ social integration even further.

*Host*: What do we know about the causes of these disorders, Dr. Billard?

*Dr. Billard*: While the exact causes remain subject‌ to research, we ‌know that ‍a combination of genetic,⁢ neurological, and environmental factors contribute to them. Early ​identification⁢ and understanding are ⁤crucial for effective intervention.

*Host*: ⁤Andréa, what ​types of support are available ⁢for children with “dys” disorders?

*Andréa Ndouna Depenaud*: Support​ can come in many forms: specialized educational programs, speech ​therapy, occupational therapy, and ‌psychological ​support. Tailoring interventions to the individual needs of each‍ child is essential for⁢ helping them thrive.

*Host*: That’s⁣ very insightful. As we⁣ conclude, ‍let’s touch on a study you mentioned regarding these conditions. What ⁣can you share ‌about‌ it?

*Dr. Billard*: At the end of⁣ our program, we will discuss ⁣the ⁣results of a recent⁣ study that provides new insights into the effectiveness of early intervention strategies for children with “dys”​ disorders.

*Host*: Thank ⁤you both for this enlightening discussion. It’s⁢ vital ⁣we ⁤continue to raise awareness about ⁤“dys” disorders and the importance of ⁤support for affected children. ‍We look forward ⁣to hearing more about the ⁢study findings later.

*Dr. Billard and ⁢Andréa ⁢Ndouna ⁤Depenaud*: Thank ⁣you!
