A Proposed Diagnostic Algorithm for Inborn Errors of Metabolism Presenting With Movements Disorders
Frontiers in Neurology, 2020 Inherited metabolic diseases or inborn errors of metabolism frequently manifest with both hyperkinetic (dystonia, chorea, myoclonus, ataxia, tremor, etc.) and hypokinetic (rigid-akinetic syndrome) movement disorders. The diagnosis of these diseases is in

A journey through the history of Neurogenetics
Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2021 Since the late 19th century, when several inherited neurological disorders were described, the close relationship between Neurology and heredity were well documented by several authors in a pre-genetic era.

Expanded Newborn Screening for Inborn Errors of Metabolism by Tandem Mass Spectrometry in Suzhou, China: Disease Spectrum, Prevalence, Genetic Characteristics in a Chinese Population [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2019 Expanded newborn screening for inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs) by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) could simultaneously analyze more than 40 metabolites and identify about 50 kinds of IEMs. Next generation sequencing (NGS) targeting hundreds of IMEs-associated genes as a follow-up test in expanded newborn screening has been used for genetic analysis

Metabolism as a complex genetic trait, a systems biology approach: Implications for inborn errors of metabolism and clinical diseases [PDF]
Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2008 SummaryMultifactorial and polygenic inheritance is commonly recognized for many genetic conditions including physical anomalies, complex congenital malformation syndromes, and even common disorders such as adult‐onset diabetes mellitus. It has only recently been suggested as a mechanism for inheritance in inborn errors of metabolism.
