G 6 PD deficiency induced hemolysis in diabetic twins.
نویسنده
چکیده
We report hemolysis due to glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) deficiency in two Egyptian monozygotic brothers, at the onset of diabetes type 1. Hemolysis occurred following the treatment of hyperglycemia and ketoacidosis (one twin). It was related to unknown G-6-PD deficiency. The fall in glucose availability after the treatment of hyper glycemia is proposed as a possible etiology for hemolysis.

THOUGH THE ORIGINS of erythrocyte glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) deficiency are rooted in human antiquity, the presence of drug-induced hemolysis in individuals subsequently felt to have G-6-PD deficiency was first reported in 1926 and the biochemical lesion responsible for this phenomenon elucidated in 1956 (1). In the United States, hemolysis induced by infection or drugs is the m...
متن کاملHyperbilirubinemia Following Exchange Transfusion with G-6-PD Deficient Donor Blood
Background: The incidence of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) deficiency in Iran is estimated at 10-14.9%. The donor blood in blood banks is not screened routinely for this enzyme deficiency and such blood may be used for neonatal exchange transfusion.Objective: To study the effect of G-6-PD deficient blood in neonatal exchange blood transfusion.Methods: In a prospective study, serum...

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 کاملDoes the history before blood transfusion identify donors who are glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) deficient?
The incidence of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) deficiency in Iran is around 10-14.9%. G-6-PD deficiency is an X-linked recessive disorder that is more prevalent in males. In our area, 80% of blood donors are males. At present, pre-donation data are relied on for detecting diseases in Shiraz blood banks and the donors' blood is not routinely screened for G-6-PD deficiency. Transfusi...

E RYTHROCYTE GLUCOSE-6-PHOSPHATE DEHYDROGENASE ( G-6PD ) DEFICIENCY is a frequent clinically-significant genetically-determined abnormality of man. On the basis of gene frequency of the enzyme deficiency, about 3,000,000 Negroes in the United States carry genes for this disorder.1 When exposed to certain drugs and chemical agents, clinically normal persons with G-6-PD deficiency experience hemo...
