Maple Syrup Urine Disease: About a Case [PDF]
Qualitative study of a clinical case, maple syrup urine disease (MAOJA), inborn error of metabolism of branched-chain amino acids with accumulation of these, resulting in severe neonatal encephalopathy, which, not being diagnosed, it leads to the ...

Wernicke-like encephalopathy during classic maple syrup urine disease decompensation.
We describe a new neuroradiologic picture observed during metabolic decompensation in two maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) patients that resembles Wernicke encephalopathy (WE).

Nutrient management in the intrapartum period in maternal maple syrup urine disease
Women with congenital amino acid disorders, including maple syrup urine disease (MSUD), are at risk of metabolic crisis at delivery. There are still only a few case reports of maternal MSUD globally, and we are the first to report the successful ...

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disorder. This disorder is usually caused by mutations in any one of the genes; BCKDHA, BCKDHB and DBT, which represent E1α, E1β and E2 subunits of the branched-chain α-keto acid ...

A Quantitative Systems Pharmacology Model of Human Leucine Metabolism
ABSTRACT Branched‐chain amino acids (BCAAs) are essential dietary components that humans cannot synthesize. Altered BCAA levels have been associated with biomarkers or potential risk factors in several metabolic disorders, including insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease.

MRI brain in maple syrup urine disease
A neonate presented with vomiting, poor feeding, and progressive lethargy during the early neonatal period, with metabolic acidosis but otherwise unremarkable routine biochemistry. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain showed symmetrical areas of

Medium Chain Acyl‐CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency; an Unexpected Cause of Neonatal Ketoacidosis
ABSTRACT Medium‐chain acyl‐CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MCADD) classically presents with hypoketotic hypoglycaemia; however, this presentation is now rare following the introduction of newborn screening. While children with MCADD may produce some ketones, severe ketoacidosis has not been previously described.

Amino Acid Metabolism in Health and Disease
This graphical abstract delineates the multifaceted role of amino acid metabolism in health and disease. It illustrates how amino acids sustain physiological homeostasis across the liver, kidney, brain, heart, intestine, muscle, skeleton, and immune system.
