Glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase deficiency and its correlation with other risk factors in jaundiced newborns in Southern Brazil.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the correlation between glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency and neonatal jaundice. METHODS Prospective, observational case-control study was conducted on 490 newborns admitted to Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre for phototherapy, who all experienced 35 or more weeks of gestation, from March to December 2007. Enzymatic screening of G6PD activity was pe...
متن کاملP-144: Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Activity in Ovine Oocytes in Association with Developmental Characteristics and Expression of Bax Gene
Background: Recent studies have revealed that oocyte competence can be assessed through the presence of the glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) enzyme, as indicated by brilliant cresyl blue (BCB), a dye that can be degraded by G6PDH. In the present study, we aimed to examine the validity of BCB test to select developmentally competent oocyte in ovine and its association with stage-specifi...
متن کاملHemolysis Induced by Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency and Its Association with Sex in Children
Background: Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is the most common enzyme disorder in human. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of G6PD deficiency among children and evaluate its association with ABO/Rh blood groups. Method: Blood samples of 3401 asymptomatic children were analyzed and compared with 317 children who were admitted to hospital because of hemolys...
متن کاملGlucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency Associated with Thalassemia and Sickle Cell Anemia in an Iranian Family
Sickle cell-thalassemia associated with glucose- 6-phosphate dehydrogenese deficiency is reported in an Iranian family. The father had sickle trait and G.6.P.D. deficiency, the mother minor thalassemia, one of the sons siclc:le ceH-thailasemiia., the oth-er sickle cell trait; the daughter had sickle cell-thalassemia and was carrier of G.6.P.D. deficiellcy.
متن کاملGlucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency and Neonatal Hyperbilirubinemia
Background: Jaundice is affecting over 60-80 percent of neonates in the first week of life. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, which is an important cause of pathologic hyperbilirubinemia, can lead to hemolytic anemia, jaundice and kernicterus. The present study was performed to determine the prevalence of G6PD deficiency among icteric neonates in Shirvan, Iran. Methods: This...
