Glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase as a cause of neonatal jaundice

The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 1963
A case of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia is reported. Tests indicated a glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency as the cause of the hemolytic disease. The authors have undertaken an intensive study of the incidence of G-6-PD deficiency in Turkey.

Acute hemolytic crisis complicated with ischemic cardiac injury and methemoglobinaemia following ingestion of naphthalene: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports
Background Naphthalene is an aromatic hydrocarbon that potentially produces methemoglobinaemia but rarely causes hemolysis, especially in children with underlying glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency.

Prevalence of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency in Cameroonian blood donors

BMC Research Notes, 2019
Objective Deficiency in G6PD is the most common enzymopathy worldwide. It is frequently found in individuals of African descent in whom it can lead to hemolytic crises triggered by the use of certain antimalarial medications and infection. The prevalence

Methemoglobinemia and Glucose-6-phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency in a Neonate

Indian Pediatrics Case Reports
Background: Methemoglobinemia is a condition where heme iron is oxidized from ferrous to ferric state, leading to hypoxia. Commonly due to drugs and toxins, it may rarely occur due to glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency.

Correcting glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency with a small-molecule activator

Nature Communications, 2018
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency provides insufficient protection from oxidative stress, contributing to diverse human pathologies. Here, the authors identify a small molecule that increases the activity and/or stability of mutant G6PD
