Long‐Term Follow‐Up of Patients With Transaldolase Deficiency
ABSTRACT Transaldolase (TALDO) deficiency has a well‐characterized phenotype. However, there are few large cohort studies, and little is known about the long term, including the need for organ transplantation. Our aim was to share a long multicenter experience in managing these patients.

Characterization of G6PD genotypes and phenotypes on the northwestern
Mutations in the glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) gene result in red blood cells with increased susceptibility to oxidative damage. Significant haemolysis can be caused by primaquine and other 8-aminoquinoline antimalarials used for the radical treatment of Plasmodium vivax malaria.

Safety and efficacy of methylene blue combined with artesunate or amodiaquine for uncomplicated falciparum malaria [PDF]
Besides existing artemisinin-based combination therapies, alternative safe, effective and affordable drug combinations against falciparum malaria are needed. Methylene blue (MB) was the first synthetic antimalarial drug ever used, and recent studies have
