We report the case of a 67‐year‐old man, a chronic ethanol consumer, admitted with a one‐week history of confusional syndrome. Initial laboratory tests revealed severe hypercalcemia, acute kidney injury, mild anemia, and hyperproteinemia ...

Immune Dysregulation in Branched Chain Organic Acidemias
ABSTRACT Organic acidemias (OAs) are a group of inherited disorders, most commonly caused by defects in mitochondrial enzymes involved in amino acid and fatty acid metabolism. While they characteristically present with metabolic and neurological crises, growing evidence reveals a significant burden of chronic immune dysregulation in some disorders and ...

Vitamin‐Responsive Disorders: From Molecular Basis to Clinical Presentation and Therapy
ABSTRACT Vitamin‐dependent cofactors are essential for numerous metabolic reactions, and defects affecting their uptake, conversion, utilisation, or regeneration constitute a heterogeneous group of inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs). Although dietary vitamin intake is sufficient to sustain coenzyme synthesis in healthy individuals, it is insufficient

Hyperornithinemia, Hyperammonemia, and Homocitrullinuria Syndrome Causing Severe Neonatal Hyperammonemia [PDF]
Hyperornithinemia-hyperammonemia-homocitrullinuria (HHH) syndrome (OMIM 238970) is an autosomal recessive disorder that is caused by a deficiency of mitochondrial ornithine transporter 1, resulting in dysfunction of the urea cycle. HHH is the rarest of the urea cycle disorders, reported in fewer than 100 patients.

ABSTRACT Mitochondrial carbonic anhydrase VA (CA‐VA) deficiency is a rare inherited metabolic disorder caused by biallelic variants of the CA5A gene. It presents with hyperammonemia, lactic acidosis, and ketonuria, with or without hypoglycemia. We report the long‐term follow‐up of the first two reported cases of CA‐VA deficiency: a 16‐year‐old female ...
