Parkinsonism and inborn errors of metabolism

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2014
AbstractParkinsonism is a frequent neurological syndrome in adulthood but is very rare in childhood. Early forms of Parkinsonism have many distinctive features as compared to Parkinsonism in adults. In fact, rather than Parkinsonism, the general concept “hypokinetic‐rigid syndrome” (HRS) is more accurate in children.

Identification, characterisation and outcomes of pre‐atrial fibrillation in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Atrial fibrillation (AF) in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) has prognostic implications. Using a machine learning algorithm (FIND‐AF), we aimed to explore clinical events and the cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) characteristics of the pre‐AF phenotype in HFrEF.

Severity of effect considerations regarding the use of mutation as a toxicological endpoint for risk assessment: A report from the 8th International Workshop on Genotoxicity Testing (IWGT)

open access: yesEnvironmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure levels without appreciable human health risk may be determined by dividing a point of departure on a dose–response curve (e.g., benchmark dose) by a composite adjustment factor (AF). An “effect severity” AF (ESAF) is employed in some regulatory contexts.

Hepatocytes in the development of liver support systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
This thesis focuses on the development of alternative strategies in the treatment of patients with acute fulminant hepatic failure and inborn errors of metabolism, using hepatocytes as the basis of liver support.

Restoring Ureagenesis in Hepatocytes by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated Genomic Addition to Arginase-deficient Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Urea cycle disorders are incurable enzymopathies that affect nitrogen metabolism and typically lead to hyperammonemia. Arginase deficiency results from a mutation in Arg1, the enzyme regulating the final step of ureagenesis and typically results in ...

Seminars in epileptology: How to diagnose status epilepticus in adults and children

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) can be regarded as the most severe expression of seizure activity characterized by a low probability of spontaneous cessation and mechanisms leading to metabolic and inflammatory derangements with increased risk of brain damage, alterations of neural networks, and potentially life‐threatening systemic complications ...

Seizures and electroencephalographic findings in inborn errors of metabolism: Clues to differential diagnosis in the neonatal period, infancy, childhood and adolescence, and review of the literature

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Although inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) are a rare cause of epilepsy, seizures are a common presentation in these disorders. Seizures in IEM are frequently refractory to conventional anti‐seizure medication and might warrant initiation of specific treatments based on vitamins or dietary modifications or provision of alternative substrates ...

The Challenge of Diagnosis and Indication for Treatment in Fabry Disease

open access: yesJournal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 2017
Fabry disease, caused by deficient alpha-galactosidase A lysosomal enzyme activity, remains challenging to health-care professionals. Laboratory diagnosis in males is carried out by determination of alpha-galactosidase A activity; for females, enzymatic ...
