Mexico initiated newborn screening in 1973, but the national incidence of this group of diseases is unknown or uncertain due to the lack of large sample sizes of expanded newborn screening (ENS) programs and lack of related publications. The incidence of a specific group of IEM, endocrinopathies, hemoglobinopathies, and other disorders in newborns was obtained from a Mexican hospital. These newborns were part of a comprehensive ENS program at Ginequito (a private hospital in Mexico), from January 2012 to August 2014. The retrospective study included the examination of 10 000 newborns’ results obtained from the ENS program (comprising the possible detection of more than 50 screened disorders). The findings were the following: 34 newborns were confirmed with an IEM, endocrinopathies, hemoglobinopathies, or other disorders and 68 were identified as carriers. Consequently, the estimated global incidence for those disorders was 3.4 in 1000 newborns; and the carrier prevalence was 6.8 in 1000. Moreover, a 0.04% false-positive rate was unveiled as soon as diagnostic testing revealed negative results. The most frequent diagnosis was glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency; and in the case of carriers, it was hemoglobinopathies. The benefit of the ENS is clear as it offers prompt treatment on the basis of an early diagnosis including proper genetic counseling. Furthermore, these results provide a good estimation of the frequencies of different forms of newborn IEM, endocrinopathies, hemoglobinopathies, and other disorders at Ginequito.

  • CBS, MET Act Sheet
    Newborn Screening ACT Sheet Increased Methionine Homocystinuria (CBS Deficiency) / Hypermethioninemia (MET) Differential Diagnosis: Classical homocystinuria (cystathionine β-synthase (CBS) deficiency); hypermethioninemia (MET) due to methionine adenosyltransferase I/III MAT I/III deficiency; glycine n-methyltransferase GNMT deficiency; adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase deficiency; liver disease; hyperalimentation. Condition Description: Methionine from ingested protein is normally converted to homocysteine. In classical homocystinuria due to CBS deficiency, homocysteine cannot be converted to cystathionine. As a result, the concentration of homocysteine and its precursor, methionine, will become elevated. In MAT I/III deficiency and the other hypermethioninemias, methionine is increased in the absence of, or only with, a slightly increased level of homocysteine. You Should Take the Following IMMEDIATE Actions • Contact family to inform them of the newborn screening result and ascertain clinical status. • Consult with pediatric metabolic specialist. (See attached list.) • Evaluate the newborn with attention to liver disease and refer as appropriate. • Initiate confirmatory/diagnostic tests in consultation with metabolic specialist. • Initial testing: Plasma quantitative amino acids and plasma total homocysteine. • Repeat newborn screen if second screen has not been done. • Educate family about homocystinuria and its management as appropriate. • Report findings to newborn screening program.

  • EXTENDED CARRIER SCREENING Peace of Mind for Planned Pregnancies
    Focusing on Personalised Medicine EXTENDED CARRIER SCREENING Peace of Mind for Planned Pregnancies Extended carrier screening is an important tool for prospective parents to help them determine their risk of having a child affected with a heritable disease. In many cases, parents aren’t aware they are carriers and have no family history due to the rarity of some diseases in the general population. What is covered by the screening? Genomics For Life offers a comprehensive Extended Carrier Screening test, providing prospective parents with the information they require when planning their pregnancy. Extended Carrier Screening has been shown to detect carriers who would not have been considered candidates for traditional risk- based screening. With a simple mouth swab collection, we are able to test for over 419 genes associated with inherited diseases, including Fragile X Syndrome, Cystic Fibrosis and Spinal Muscular Atrophy. The assay has been developed in conjunction with clinical molecular geneticists, and includes genes listed in the NIH Genetic Test Registry. For a list of genes and disorders covered, please see the reverse of this brochure. If your gene of interest is not covered on our Extended Carrier Screening panel, please contact our friendly team to assist you in finding a gene test panel that suits your needs. Why have Extended Carrier Screening? Extended Carrier Screening prior to pregnancy enables couples to learn about their reproductive risk and consider a complete range of reproductive options, including whether or not to become pregnant, whether to use advanced reproductive technologies, such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, or to use donor gametes.

The case is exceptional in that there was no evidence of gypsy blood in the family concerned. The investigation of neonatal hyperbilirubinaemia led to the discovery of galactosuria. As noted by others, the paucity of presenting features makes early diagnosis difficult, and detection by biochemical screening seems desirable. Cataract formation, of early onset, appears to be the only severe persisting complication and may be due to the biosynthesis and accumulation of galactitol in the lens.
