A Drosophila melanogaster model of classic galactosemia [PDF]
SUMMARY Classic galactosemia is a potentially lethal disorder that results from profound impairment of galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT). Despite decades of research, the underlying pathophysiology of classic galactosemia remains unclear, in part owing to the lack of an appropriate animal model.

ABSTRACT Multiple carboxylase deficiency (MCD) is a rare, treatable inborn error of biotin metabolism that may present in children in the first year of life with life‐threatening metabolic crises. We report a 4‐month‐old child presenting with persistent seizures, eczematous rash near the orifices, unjustified loss of hair with baldness, and severe ...

Sweet and sour: an update on classic galactosemia. [PDF]
AbstractClassic galactosemia is a rare inherited disorder of galactose metabolism caused by deficient activity of galactose‐1‐phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT), the second enzyme of the Leloir pathway. It presents in the newborn period as a life‐threatening disease, whose clinical picture can be resolved by a galactose‐restricted diet.

Low prevalence of classical galactosemia in Korean population [PDF]
This study described the clinical and molecular genetic features of classical galactosemia in Korean population to contribute to the insight in the spectrum of galactosemia in the world, as little is known about the spectrum and incidence of galactosemia in Asia.

Traveller mothers: Obstetric and neonatal outcomes in an Irish maternity unit
Abstract Objective Travellers' ethnicity was only formally acknowledged by the Irish State in 2017. They experience persistent racism and discrimination, resulting in poorer outcomes in terms of health, education, employment, and accommodation. Previous studies have reported higher rates of infant mortality and stillbirths among Traveller mothers. This

Abstract Hereditary Fructose Intolerance (HFI), also known as aldolase B deficiency, is an inherited metabolic disorder caused by the deficiency of that enzyme, which participates in the fructose metabolism in the liver, kidneys and small intestine. Aldolase B deficiency brings about the accumulation of fructose‐1‐phosphate in these organs, which can ...

ABSTRACT The sub‐Tenon route for injecting triamcinolone acetonide is one of the widely practiced surgical techniques for postoperative inflammation control, but complicated conjunctival and scleral necrosis are rare occurrences. A 3‐year‐old boy underwent bilateral cataract surgery and an anterior sub‐tendon injection of triamcinolone (AST) (20 mg ...
