  • Incidence of Inborn Errors of Metabolism by Expanded Newborn
    Original Article Journal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism & Screening 2016, Volume 4: 1–8 Incidence of Inborn Errors of Metabolism ª The Author(s) 2016 DOI: 10.1177/2326409816669027 by Expanded Newborn Screening iem.sagepub.com in a Mexican Hospital Consuelo Cantu´-Reyna, MD1,2, Luis Manuel Zepeda, MD1,2, Rene´ Montemayor, MD3, Santiago Benavides, MD3, Hector´ Javier Gonza´lez, MD3, Mercedes Va´zquez-Cantu´,BS1,4, and Hector´ Cruz-Camino, BS1,5 Abstract Newborn screening for the detection of inborn errors of metabolism (IEM), endocrinopathies, hemoglobinopathies, and other disorders is a public health initiative aimed at identifying specific diseases in a timely manner. 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.

Hereditary galactokinase deficiency. A baby with galactokinase deficiency, a recessive inborn error of galactose metabolism, is des- cribed. 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. Ophthalmic surgeons need to be aware of this enzyme defect, because with early diagnosis and dietary treatment these lens changes should be reversible.

  • Mild Galactosemia General Overview
    Mild Galactosemia General Overview Q. What is mild galactosemia? A. Mild galactosemia affects the way the body processes the sugar galactose, a component of milk and dairy products. Children with mild galactosemia may have some difficulty processing galactose. As a result, galactose and other by-products can build up in the bloodstream. Q. Is there only one form of galactosemia? A. No, there are several forms. Mild galactosemia is a term used to describe the non-severe forms that usually do not require treatment. Q. How does the body normally process galactose? A. The body normally converts galactose into glucose, which is used for energy. This conversion is made possible by several enzymes. One of these, named galactose-1-phosphate uridyltransferase (GALT), is most often associated with mild galactosemia. Q. What happens to galactose in a child with mild galactosemia? A. In a child with mild galactosemia, the body has some difficulty converting galactose to glucose. This can result in some build-up of galactose and other by-products. Q. What are the effects of having mild galactosemia if it is not treated? A. Most infants who have mild galactosemia have no effects, even without treatment. Depending on the level of enzyme activity and milk intake, some infants may show signs of poor feeding and digestion. Q. What is the treatment for mild galactosemia? A. Mild galactosemia usually does not require treatment. However, some infants may benefit from reduced milk intake. If a child with mild galactosemia has difficulty tolerating breast milk or regular formula, soy based formula can be substituted.

  • Metabolic Liver Diseases Presenting As Acute Liver Failure in Children
    R E V I E W A R T I C L E Metabolic Liver Diseases Presenting as Acute Liver Failure in Children SEEMA A LAM AND BIKRANT BIHARI LAL From Department of Pediatric Hepatology, Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences, New Delhi, India. Correspondence to: Prof Seema Alam, Professor and Head, Department of Pediatric Hepatology, Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences, New Delhi 110 070, India. [email protected] Context: Suspecting metabolic liver disease in an infant or young child with acute liver failure, and a protocol-based workup for diagnosis is the need of the hour. Evidence acquisition: Data over the last 15 years was searched through Pubmed using the keywords “Metabolic liver disease” and “Acute liver failure” with emphasis on Indian perspective. Those published in English language where full text was retrievable were included for this review. Results: Metabolic liver diseases account for 13-43% cases of acute liver failure in infants and young children. Etiology remains indeterminate in very few cases of liver failure in studies where metabolic liver diseases were recognized in large proportion. Galactosemia, tyrosinemia and mitochondrial disorders in young children and Wilson’s disease in older children are commonly implicated. A high index of suspicion for metabolic liver diseases should be kept when there is strong family history of consanguinity, recurrent abortions or sibling deaths; and history of recurrent diarrhea, vomiting, failure to thrive or developmental delay. Simple dietary modifications and/or specific management can be life-saving if instituted promptly. Conclusion: A high index of suspicion in presence of red flag symptoms and signs, and a protocol-based approach helps in timely diagnosis and prompt administration of life- saving therapy.

Received: 24 June 2015 / Accepted: 26 August 2015 / Published: 31 August 2015 Abstract: Humans learned to exploit ruminants as a source of milk about 10,000 years ago. Since then, the use of domesticated ruminants as a source of milk and dairy products has expanded until today when the dairy industry has become one of the largest sectors in the modern food industry, including the spread at the present time to countries such as China and Japan. This review analyzes the reasons for this expansion and flourishing. As reviewed in detail, milk has numerous nutritional advantages, most important being almost an irreplaceable source of dietary calcium, hence justifying the effort required to increase its consumption. On the other hand, widespread lactose intolerance among the adult population is a considerable drawback to dairy-based foods consumption.

  • Fermentation, Fermented Foods and Lactose Intolerance
    European Journal of Clinical Nutrition (2002) 56, Suppl 4, S50–S55 ß 2002 Nature Publishing Group All rights reserved 0954–3007/02 $25.00 www.nature.com/ejcn Fermentation, fermented foods and lactose intolerance NW Solomons1* 1Center for Studies of Sensory Impairment, Aging and Metabolism (CeSSIAM), Guatemala City, Guatemala Lactose (milk sugar) is a fermentable substrate. It can be fermented outside of the body to produce cheeses, yoghurts and acidified milks. It can be fermented within the large intestine in those people who have insufficient expression of lactase enzyme on the intestinal mucosa to ferment this disaccharide to its absorbable, simple hexose sugars: glucose and galactose. In this way, the issues of lactose intolerance and of fermented foods are joined. It is only at the extremes of life, in infancy and old age, in which severe and life-threatening consequences from lactose maldigestion may occur. Fermentation as part of food processing can be used for preservation, for liberation of pre-digested nutrients, or to create ethanolic beverages. Almost all cultures and ethnic groups have developed some typical forms of fermented foods. Lessons from fermentation of non-dairy items may be applicable to fermentation of milk, and vice versa.

  • Classical Galactosemia Information for Parents
    Classical Galactosemia Information for Parents Overview Classical galactosemia is an inherited defect of galactose metabolism. It is caused by an enzyme deficiency that prevents the body from metabolizing galactose, or milk sugar, into glucose. The main dietary source of galactose is lactose, and is found in all forms of milk, except soy. What is Classical Galactosemia? Classical galactosemia is a treatable disorder. It affects the way the body processes the sugar galactose, a component of milk and dairy products. Children with classical galactosemia cannot process galactose. As a result, galactose and other by-products build up in the bloodstream and cause physical and developmental damage. Poor mental and physical growth, cataracts, and serious liver and kidney problems are just a few of the possible effects of this disorder. In a child with classical galactosemia, galactose cannot be converted to glucose because the GALT enzyme does not work properly. Classical galactosemia can be life threatening in the first few weeks of life. Milder variants of galactosemia are not associated with serious complications. Galactosemia and lactose intolerance are totally separate medical conditions. Why is newborn screening done for Classical Galactosemia? Newborn screening is done for classical galactosemia and other milder forms of galactosemia so babies with this condition can be diagnosed quickly. If babies are diagnosed quickly, treatment can begin immediately, reducing the chances of permanent damage from the accumulation of galactose and its by-products in the body. Does a positive result from the Kansas Newborn Screening Lab mean that my baby has Classical Galactosemia? No, not necessarily. Newborn screening tests the baby's level of GALT or Galactose-1- phosphate uridyl transferase enzyme.
