متن کاملGlycogen storage disease type III: modified Atkins diet improves myopathy
BACKGROUND Frequent feeds with carbohydrate-rich meals or continuous enteral feeding has been the therapy of choice in glycogen storage disease (Glycogenosis) type III. Recent guidelines on diagnosis and management recommend frequent feedings with high complex carbohydrates or cornstarch avoiding fasting in children, while in adults a low-carb-high-protein-diet is recommended.

متن کاملGlycogen storage disease type I: laboratory data and diagnosis.
A study of 20 cases of glycogen storage disease type I has shown differences from the classical picture. Hyperuricemia was observed in fewer than half of the cases. All patients had increased triglycerides in serum, but fewer than two thirds had increased concentrations of total cholesterol. There was a consistent increase of aminotransferases in serum. Many textbooks discuss hyperuricemia, lac...
