It requires a medical diagnosis, Lab tests or imaging often required.
listed below are a few treatments:
Anticonvulsant drugs
Assisted-mobility devices
Behavioral therapy
Dental care
Education
Ketogenic diet
Occupational therapy
Stimulant drugs 
Sedative drug

The UBE3A gene provides instructions for making the enzyme ubiquitin protein ligase E3A. This enzyme is involved in targeting proteins to be degraded, or broken down, within cells.]]> 2018-03-28 21:51:53 UTC https://padlet.com/kayleepelletier44/7jqb9ivhgb2p/wish/247090507 kayleepelletier44 https://padlet.com/kayleepelletier44/7jqb9ivhgb2p/wish/247090663 Because most cases of Angelman Syndrome are caused by spontaneous genetic mutations, there is currently no known way to prevent the disease.]]> 2018-03-28 21:53:08 UTC https://padlet.com/kayleepelletier44/7jqb9ivhgb2p/wish/247090663 kayleepelletier44 https://padlet.com/kayleepelletier44/7jqb9ivhgb2p/wish/247091732 You can try to control the disease by using the common treatments like therapy, test, exams, and taking the right medicine. ]]> 2018-03-28 22:02:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kayleepelletier44/7jqb9ivhgb2p/wish/247091732 kayleepelletier44 https://padlet.com/kayleepelletier44/7jqb9ivhgb2p/wish/247093697 Most cases of Angelman syndrome are not inherited, particularly those caused by a deletion in the maternal chromosome 15 or by paternal uni-parental disomy. These genetic changes occur as random events during the formation of reproductive cells (eggs and sperm) or in early embryonic development. Affected people typically have no history of the disorder in their family.]]> 2018-03-28 22:18:26 UTC https://padlet.com/kayleepelletier44/7jqb9ivhgb2p/wish/247093697 kayleepelletier44 https://padlet.com/kayleepelletier44/7jqb9ivhgb2p/wish/247095645 Angelman is a genetic disease so it is not found in certain places.
