Neurocognitive phenotype of isolated methylmalonic acidemia.
OBJECTIVE Methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) is a metabolic disorder with a poorly defined long-term neurocognitive phenotype. We studied the neuropsychological outcomes of patients and examined clinical covariates that influenced cognition. METHODS A diverse cohort with mut, cblA, or cblB subtypes of isolated MMA (N = 43), ages 2 to 32 years, were evaluated at a single center over a 6-year period....
متن کاملMethylmalonic acidemia
The authors provide an overview of the hereditary methylmalonic acidemias, a group of metabolic disorders with varied clinical presentations. This includes the most severe form of L-methylmalonyl-CoA mutase deficiency, termed mut(o) methylmalonic acidemia, which, together with the less severe deficiencies of L-methylmalonyl-CoA mutase, are the most common causes of methylmalonic acidemia. They ...
متن کاملMethylmalonic Acidemia.
Methylmalonic Acidemia (MMA) is an inborn error of metabolism that results in accumulation of methylmalonic acid in blood and increased excretion in urine. The effects of MMA vary from mild to life threatening and it usually presents in early infancy. Affected infants can have vomiting, dehydration, hypotonia, developmental delay and failure to thrive. The emergency treatment of the newborn wit...
متن کاملMRI characteristics of globus pallidus infarcts in isolated methylmalonic acidemia.
BACKGROUND Bilateral infarcts confined to the globus pallidus are unusual and occur in conjunction with only a few disorders, including isolated methylmalonic acidemia, a heterogeneous inborn error of metabolism. On the basis of neuroradiographic features of metabolic strokes observed in a large cohort of patients with methylmalonic acidemia, we have devised a staging system for methylmalonic a...
متن کاملGrowth hormone therapy in neonatal patients with methylmalonic acidemia.
BACKGROUND Information regarding growth hormone (GH) therapy in neonatal patients with methylmalonic academia (MMA) is lacking. We present our experience with GH therapy in neonatal patients with MMA. METHODS Four neonatal patients with mut 0 type MMA were identified through newborn screening for elevated propionylcarnitine (C3) levels. GH therapy (0.6 IU/kg/week, subcutaneously) was prescrib...
