Three twin births occurring within 18 months in Oxfordshire, in which a girl with Down's syndrome was twin to an unaffected boy, provided an opportunity for a closely matched comparison of ratings on the Schedule for Oral Motor Assessment, which examines oral-motor function in a systematic and reliable way. A detailed description of the video-recording of one twin pair is included. This illustrates abnormalities of oral-motor function which may occur generally in Down's syndrome, as suggested further by a numerical tabulation of the differences found between the twins.
在牛津郡，18个月内发生了三例双胞胎出生的情况，其中患有唐氏综合征的女孩与未受影响的男孩为双胞胎，这为在口腔运动评估量表上进行高度匹配的评分比较提供了机会，该量表以系统且可靠的方式检查口腔运动功能。文中包含了一对双胞胎的录像详细描述。这展示了唐氏综合征中可能普遍出现的口腔运动功能异常，双胞胎之间差异的数字列表进一步证明了这一点。
