BACKGROUND Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is the most widespread enzyme defect that can result in red cell breakdown under oxidative stress when exposed to certain medicines including antimalarials. We evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of CareStart G6PD deficiency Rapid Diagnostic Test (RDT) as a point-of-care tool for screening G6PD deficiency. METHODS A cross-sectional ...

The case of a 44 year old Ashkenazi Jewish woman of Russian origin who presented with a typical clinical and haematological picture of favism is reported. There was initial difficulty in confirming glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency because the enzyme concentrations were normal at presentation, but later fell to a concentration compatible with heterozygosity for the Mediterrane...

Erythrocyte glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is an X-linked hereditary disorder (Browne, 1957). According to Gross, Hurwitz, and Marks (1958) males who are hemizygous for this disorder have low enzyme levels which vary from 0 to 20% of normal, and haemolysis occurs in association with exposure to certain drugs or illness. On the other hand, heterozygous females have intermedi...

Background: Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is one of the most known enzyme defects in Iran with various genetic mutations. We aimed to study the predisposing factors of hemolysis in children with G6PD deficiency. Methods: This study was done during 2007-2012 in two referral centers of Mofid Children’s Hospital and Baqiyatallah Hospital, Tehran, Iran. The hospital rec...

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is a cytoplasmic enzyme with an important function in cell oxidative damage prevention. Erythrocytes have a predisposition towards oxidized environments due to their lack of mitochondria, giving G6PD a major role in its stability. G6PD deficiency (G6PDd) is the most common enzyme deficiency in humans; it affects approximately 400 million individuals worl...

The enzyme, Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), deficiency leads to impaired production of reduced glutathione and predisposes the red cells to damage by oxidative metabolites, causing hemolysis. Deficient neonates may manifest clinically as hyperbilirubinemia or even kernicterus. Screening for G6PD deficiency and recognition of prevalence of the enzyme deficiency in individual communitie...

G lucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is a common Xlinked human enzyme defect (1). There are a few reports that link G6PD deficiency to diabetes (2–4). We undertook a cross-sectional study at Maccabi Healthcare Services, an Israeli HMO serving two million members. All interactions and information are captured on an electronic medical record. Our study population included all male...

Glucose-6-phosphate (G6PD) deficiency is the most common human enzyme defect, often presenting with neonatal jaundice and/or acute hemolytic anemia, triggered by oxidizing agents. G6PD deficiency is an X-linked, hereditary disease, mainly affecting men, but should also be considered in females with an oxidative hemolysis.

Objectives: The single most inherited enzyme deficiency is that of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) with a presence in almost 400 million theworld’spopulation. Thenumber reported G6PD mutations 186. Furthermore, geographical location determining factor for the prevalence G6PD. Therefore, much existing epidemiological literature concerning this issue Turkey has data specific to cities an...

Background Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) enzyme deficiency is one of the prevalent disorders in Guilan province, northern Iran, causing many patients to suffer from acute hemolysis. This disease has imposed tremendous costs both on patients and Health systems. The aim of this study was to compare the direct costs of favism treatment on patients and health system with G6PD en...
