Glucose-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...
متن کاملPossible Association between Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency and the Development of Preeclampsia
Glucose-6-Phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a common enzyme deficiency in the world. It's Prevalence inIranis about 12% in male & about 1% in female. The present study did examine the relation between the development of preeclampsia and G6PD deficiency. It was investigated whether or not the risk of preeclampsia in G6PD deficient women is higher than that in normal pregnant women.A t...

Out of 20 patients with viral hepatitis whose glucose-6phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) levels were normal, 14 had clinical evidence of a mild to moderate degree of haemolysis but in all the patients studied the half life of chromium-51-labelled red cells was shortened. Out of 18 viral hepatitis patients deficient in G-6-PD 17 had clinical evidence of haemolysis, and in eight this was more seve...
متن کاملGlucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency.
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is expressed in all tissues, where it catalyses the first step in the pentose phosphate pathway. G6PD deficiency is prevalent throughout tropical and subtropical regions of the world because of the protection it affords during malaria infection. Although most affected individuals are asymptomatic, there is a risk of neonatal jaundice and acute haemolytic...
