Event-related potential (ERP) evidence for visual processing differences in children and adults with cystinosis (CTNS gene mutations). [PDF]
Background Cystinosis, a rare lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in the CTNS gene, is characterized by cystine crystallization and accumulation within multiple tissues, including kidney and brain.

Health‐related quality of life and patient‐reported outcome measurements in patients with cystinosis
Nephropathic cystinosis is a rare autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder. With the availability of treatment and renal replacement therapy, nephropathic cystinosis has evolved from an early fatal disease to a chronic, progressive disorder with ...

Hypothesis: Taurine therapy of nephropathic cystinosis may correct the deficiencies of cysteamine therapy. [PDF]
Untreated nephropathic cystinosis is a lethal autosomal recessive disease. The current specific therapy, cysteamine, ameliorates the renal function loss, but does not alter the renal Fanconi syndrome, short stature, muscle weakness, male infertility, and

Urine-Derived Kidney Progenitor Cells in Cystinosis
Nephropathic cystinosis is an inherited lysosomal storage disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the cystinosin (CTNS) gene and is characterized by the excessive shedding of proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTECs) and podocytes into urine ...

Transition from pediatric to adult nephropathic cystinosis care: the structure, challenges and lessons learned. [PDF]
Cystinosis is a rare, autosomal recessive disorder that results in a build up of the amino acid cystine in the body ( 1). With early diagnosis and advances in patient prognosis over the years, this has led to an increasing number of adolescents and ...

Infantile nephropathic cystinosis [PDF]
CASE PRESENTATION A Caucasian girl, the product of a non-consanguineous union, was delivered after a full-term uneventful pregnancy with a birth weight of 4.1 kg. At 15 months, she presented to the emergency room with signs of a respiratory illness and was found to weigh 6.14 kg, below the 3rd percentile for age.

Anaesthetic implications of cystinosis [PDF]
The author presents and discusses the anaesthetic care of a 12-yr-old boy with cystinosis. Cystinosis is a recessively inherited disorder of amino acid metabolism resulting in the abnormal intracellular accumulation of cystine. Anaesthetic care may be affected by variable end-organ involvement, most notably progressive renal deterioration beginning ...
