  • Branched chain ketonuria i

    Branched-chain ketonuria, also known as maple syrup urine disorder, is a metabolic disorder caused by the abnormal activity of the Branched-Chain alpha-Keto Acid Dehydrogenase (BCKAD) complex. The enzyme is responsible for the metabolism of branched-chain amino acids. The deficiency of the enzymes leads to the accumulation of the substrate in plasma and urine. The high levels of keto acids lead to serious neurological manifest  Read More

  • Cockayne syndrome

    Cockayne Syndrome (CS) is a rare form of dwarfism. It is an inherited disorder whose diagnosis depends on the presence of three signs (1) growth retardation, i.e. short stature, (2) abnormal sensitivity to light (photosensitivity), and (3) prematurely aged appearance (progeria). In the classical form of Cockayne Syndrome (CS type I) the symptoms are progressive and typically become apparent after the age of one year. An early onset or congenit  Read More

  • Endocrine tumors, carcinoid type

    Carcinoid syndrome is a disease consisting of a combination of symptoms, physical manifestations, and abnormal laboratory findings. Carcinoid syndrome is seen in individuals who have an underlying carcinoid tumour with spread to the liver. Carcinoid tumors are well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumours with secretory properties, releasing serotonin, along with a number of other active peptides. These tumors can arise anywhere along the primiti  Read More

  • Holmes-adie syndrome

Most patients have dilated pupils, which are bigger than normal and slow to respond to bright light. Tendon reflexes can be absent or weak, which is another symptom of this condition. The origin of Adie syndrome is typically unclear (idiopathic), however, it can also be brought on by other disorders such trauma, surgery  Read More

  • Uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase deficienc...

    A rare condition known as uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase deficiency is characterized by painful, blistering skin lesions that appear on skin exposed to the sun (photosensitivity). After minimal trauma, the fragile skin of the affected area may peel or blister. The liver may also exhibit abnormalities. Low levels of the enzyme uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase are the cause of PCT (UROD). Signs and Symptoms of uroporp  Read More
