fructose/vomiting

Fructose-1, 6-bisphosphatase 1 (FBP1) deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder of gluconeogenesis resulting in severe and recurrent life-threatening episodes of hypoglycemia and lactic acidosis in infancy. We report a 16 month-old girl who presented with recurrent episodes of vomiting, rapid

Hereditary fructose intolerance is an autosomal recessive disorder that illustrates vividly the interplay between heredity and environment in the genesis of human nutritional disease. Genetically determined defects of an isozyme of fructose bisphosphate aldolase (aldolase B, which is specialized for

We present the case of a 17-year-old male who was diagnosed at birth with hereditary fructose intolerance (HFI). The patient complained of morning-time asthenia and post-prandial drowsiness despite a correct sleep pattern. The physical examination and biological check-up only showed severe vitamin C

Hereditary fructose intolerance (HFI) symptoms develop at first introduction of fruit during weaning. We report on an infant with suspected HFI who presented with repeated episodes of vomiting and hypotension after ingestion of fruit-containing meals. The first episode occurred at age 4 months.

Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive inborn error of gluconeogenesis. We reported the clinical findings and molecular genetic data in seven Malaysian patients with FBPase deficiency. All patients diagnosed with FBPase deficiency from 2010 to 2015 were

OBJECTIVE To report the first case of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) deficiency diagnosed by genetic sequencing in China, and to improve the cognition of this rare disease. METHODS The clinical and laboratory characteristics of FBPase deficiency were reviewed, and the findings of direct

Magnesium fructose-1,6-diphosphate is a novel agent of antimyocardial ischaemia. In the present study, the subchronic toxicity of magnesium fructose-1,6-diphosphate was investigated after 13-week repeated intravenous administration in beagle dogs. The animals received doses of 0, 75, 150 and 300

Hereditary fructose intolerance (HFI) is an under-recognized, preventable life-threatening condition. It is an autosomal recessive disorder with subnormal activity of aldolase B in the liver, kidney and small bowel. Symptoms are present only after the ingestion of fructose, which leads to brisk

Twenty infants and young children with hereditary fructose intolerance (HFI) were admitted to hospital. None was diagnosed at admission. Referals were for vomiting of unknown aetiology (16X), pyloric stenosis or hiatus hernia (5X), toxic condition (3X), and hepatomegaly of unknown origin (5X).

In the past 5 years we have discovered 8 boys and 3 girls who suffer from fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase deficiency. Although they all showed the typical symptoms of the deficiency such as frequent vomiting, hypoglycemia, lactic acidosis, and hepatomegaly, the age at diagnosis varied from 2 months to 4

We observed eight infants with hereditary fructose intolerance which had been diagnosed by the fructose tolerance test and an aldolase assay on biopsied liver. None of these had been diagnosed before their admission to our department. The most frequent symptoms were vomiting and failure to thrive.

In order to diagnose hereditary fructose intolerance up to now, there were only the dangerous fructose-load and the biochemical evidence of this metabolic defect from biopsies of liver, intestine or kidney. Since there are no screening tests nor tests for heterocygote carriers or prenatal diagnostic

Celiac disease is associated with several genetic disorders, but its association with hereditary fructose intolerance is rare. Hereditary fructose intolerance is a rare autosomal recessive disease of fructose metabolism presenting as vomiting after intake of fructose. An association between these
