Differential diagnosis of (inherited) amino acid metabolism or transport disorders [PDF]
__Abstract__ Disorders of amino acid metabolism or transport are most clearly expressed in urine. Nevertheless the interpretation of abnormalities in urinary amino acid excretion remains difficult. An increase or decrease of almost every amino acid in

Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

The Phenotypic and Genotypic Features of ADAMTSL4‐Related Ocular Disease
ADAMTSL4‐related ocular disease tends to present at a younger age and be associated with higher myopia than other forms of ectopia lentis (such as FBN1). A previously reported 20‐bp deletion (c.767_786del) was highly prevalent in this cohort (23/32), and all ectopia lentis et pupillae cases carried this variant. ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in ADAMTSL4

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Limited evidence suggests autoimmune thyroiditis (AT) could represent a risk factor for cervical artery dissection (CeAD). We tested the hypothesis of a positive association between AT and CeAD within 3 years following diagnosis compared to matched euthyroid controls.

ABSTRACT The importance of early diagnosis of inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) is well known, as it allows early intervention to prevent or reduce complications and improve prognosis, since many of these disorders are treatable. However, diagnosis can still be delayed, and many patients remain undiagnosed. Reducing diagnosis delays is a primary goal

Metabolic Stroke: Atypical Presentation of Succinic Semialdehyde Dehydrogenase Deficiency
ABSTRACT Succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase (SSADH) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive neurometabolic disorder caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in ALDH5A1, encoding the mitochondrial enzyme SSADH. This enzyme catalyses the conversion of succinic semialdehyde to succinic acid in the γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) degradation pathway.

On the Origin of Western Diet Pathologies [PDF]
The ratio of the two sulfur-containing amino acids, methionine (Met) and cysteine (Cys), may be a determining factor for which foods contribute to longevity and health. It is shown here that substantially more Met than Cys is consistently found in foods,
