Teaching NeuroImages: Glutaric aciduria type 1 (glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency).
A 14-month-old boy presented with loss of developmental milestones and tonic spasms following a diarrheal illness. He was born to nonconsanguineous parents and had mild motor delays. Examination was remarkable for macrocephaly, axial hypotonia, and asymmetric dystonic posturing of neck, trunk, and extremities. Brain MRI (figure) and elevated glutaryl carnitine on tandem mass spectroscopy were d...
متن کاملCerebral haemodynamics in patients with glutaryl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency.
In glutaric aciduria type 1, glutaryl-coenzyme A and its derivatives are produced from intracerebral lysine and entrapped at high concentrations within the brain, where they interfere with energy metabolism. Biochemical toxicity is thought to trigger stroke-like striatal degeneration in susceptible children under 2 years of age. Here, we explore vascular derangements that might also contribute ...

متن کاملa comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection
supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...
15 صفحه اولMultimodal imaging of striatal degeneration in Amish patients with glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency.
Despite early diagnosis, one-third of Amish infants with glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (GA1) develop striatal lesions that leave them permanently disabled. To better understand mechanisms of striatal degeneration, we retrospectively studied imaging results from 25 Amish GA1 patients homozygous for 1296C>T mutations in GCDH. Asymptomatic infants had reduced glucose tracer uptake and incr...
