The Incidence of Urea Cycle Disorders [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2013
A key question for urea cycle disorders is their incidence. In the United States two UCDs, argininosuccinic synthetase and lyase deficiency, are currently detected by newborn screening. We used newborn screening data on over 6million births and data from

The Urea Cycle Disorders

Seminars in Neurology, 2014
The urea cycle is the primary nitrogen-disposal pathway in humans. It requires the coordinated function of six enzymes and two mitochondrial transporters to catalyze the conversion of a molecule of ammonia, the α-nitrogen of aspartate, and bicarbonate into urea.

A Longitudinal Study of Urea Cycle Disorders

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2014
The Urea Cycle Disorders Consortium (UCDC) is a member of the NIH funded Rare Diseases Clinical Research Network and is performing a longitudinal study of 8 urea cycle disorders (UCDs) with initial enrollment beginning in 2006. The consortium consists of

Urea cycle disorders

Seminars in Neonatology, 2002
Most patients with urea cycle disorders who present as neonates, do so with deteriorating feeding, drowsiness and tachypnoea, following a short initial period when they appear well. The plasma ammonia should be measured at the same time as the septic screen in such patients.

Urea cycle disorders—update

Journal of Human Genetics, 2019
The urea cycle is a metabolic pathway for the disposal of excess nitrogen, which arises primarily as ammonia. Nitrogen is essential for growth and life-maintenance, but excessive ammonia leads to life-threatening conditions. The urea cycle disorders (UCDs) comprise diseases presenting with hyperammonemia that arise in either the neonatal period (about ...

Treatment of Urea Cycle Disorders

Enzyme, 2017
Recent advances in the treatment of inborn errors of urea synthesis have significantly decreased mortality. Treatment has included combining a high-quality low-protein diet with supplements of deficient metabolites and stimulation of alternate pathways of waste nitrogen excretion.

Urea Cycle Disorders

2019
A female infant, weighing 2786 g, was born at 39 weeks gestational age with Apgar scores of 8 points at 1 min and 9 points at 5 min after birth. She had no family history of hereditary disorders. Although she had no medical problems at birth and consumed her mother’s breast milk, she developed fever with increased white blood cell counts (WBC: 22,070 ...

Urea Cycle Disorders

2016
The urea cycle is the final pathway for removal of surplus nitrogen from the body, the major route in humans for irreversible detoxification of ammonia and a source of arginine.2,3 Patients with adult-onset urea cycle disorders present with clinical symptoms that have a broad differential diagnosis (e.g., protein aversion, inappetence, cyclic vomiting,
