Economics of tandem mass spectrometry screening of neonatal inherited disorders [PDF]
Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of neonatal screening for phenylketonuria (PKU) and medium-chain acyl-coA dehydrogenase (MCAD) deficiency using tandem mass spectrometry (tandem MS). Methods: A systematic review

Dietary Treatment from Birth to Pregnancy in a Woman with Methylmalonic Aciduria
Methylmalonic aciduria is treated with a natural protein-restricted diet with adequate energy intake to sustain metabolic balance. Natural protein is a source of methylmalonic acid precursors, and intake is individually modified according to the severity

Inborn errors of metabolite repair [PDF]
AbstractIt is traditionally assumed that enzymes of intermediary metabolism are extremely specific and that this is sufficient to prevent the production of useless and/or toxic side‐products. Recent work indicates that this statement is not entirely correct.

Background Most white matter diseases present on magnetic resonance imaging as focal or diffuse T2-hyperintensities. However, in a few of them, radially oriented stripes of low (relatively normal) signal intensity are observed within diffusely affected ...

Hyperphenylalaninemias genotyping: Results of over 60 years of history in Lombardy, Italy
Background Hyperphenylalaninemias (HPA) are due to several gene mutations, of which the PAH gene is the most frequently involved. Prevalence and incidence of disease vary between populations, with genotype/phenotype correlations not always capable to ...

The Continuous Challenge of Diagnosing patients with Fabry disease in Argentina : Genotype, Experiences, Anecdotes, and New Learnings [PDF]
The lysosomal storage disorder Fabry disease (FD) is caused by pathogenic mutations in the α-galactosidase A gene, localized in X chromosome. Deficient enzymatic activity of the product of this gene, the lysosomal hydrolase α-galactosidase A, leads to ...
