TRANSCRIPT
Metabolic Disorders/ IEM
Metabolic disorders/IEMs are caused when the body is unable to break down nutrients, which then accumulate in the body and becomes toxic.
When the concentration of toxic build-up increase they cross
the blood-brain barrier and this leads to delayed development, brain damage and, in some cases, even death.
Most infants with these disorders show no obvious signs of
these disorders at birth, but the build-up can be rapid enough for the condition to become irreversible within a few weeks of birth.
Reason behind these Disorders
These disorders follow an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern
Could skip generations
Parents are carriers
Happens when the two parents carry the gene 1:4 probability of having an affected child
Early detection is very important
Affected babies are identified quickly before symptoms appear.
Cases of disease are not missed.
The number of false-positive results is minimized.
Early treatment can begin, that prevents the negative and irreversible health outcomes for affected newborns.
Most treatments are inexpensive and may involve the addition of a vitamin to the diet, hormone supplementation, avoidance of certain foods and chemicals or a dietary change.
INBORN ERROR OF MEATBOLISM DEFINATION :
Rare group of recessive genetic disorders in which the body can not metabolize food components normally . These disorders are usually caused by defects in enzymes involved in the biochemical pathways that break down food components .

Barriers to Newborn Screening
Cost of the screening and treatment Test cannot be done at birth (birth has to be in a hospital) Insufficient sampling due to the lack of proper training and education Difficult to reach in different geographic location Problems with recall and follow up cases
If screening is delayed
It could lead to lifelong complications:
Mental Retardation
Motor Impairment
Physical Disability

GA 1 Not Screened

The newborn screen has to be done only once in a lifetime Speeds diagnosis and saves costs Healthy child instead of sick or mentally retarded child.

Benefits of Newborn Screening for Metabolic Disorders
Anytime 24 hours AFTER birth (ideally within 48-72 hrs).
Baby needs to be fed at least 2 - 3 times before the specimen is taken.
BEFORE developmental delay or other symptoms of mental retardation occur (best time is to screen a healthy baby).
Time to do screening
Every Newborn (Routine screening) High Risk
Unexplained deaths of siblings Miscarriages & Aborted Fetuses Exhibit symptoms of IEMs Babies conceived by IVF Babies in NICU
Sick Children

Every Newborn needs to be Screened
Sample from baby’s Heel
1. Puncture heel 2. Lightly touch filter paper to LARGE blood drop
3. Dry the sample & send to the laboratory
Tandem Mass Spectrometry (MS/MS)
Mass Spectrometry means multiple analyte testing Using Tandem Mass Spectrometry, multiple analytes are measured
simultaneously Quantitatively measures amino acids and acylcarnitines from dried blood
spot specimens Efficient and Economical MS/MS is very precise

• Most common AA disorder—PKU—is part of the current test panel
• Expansion added additional 6 AA disorders
• All are recessive genetic disorders so risk of recurrence is 1:4 with each pregnancy
• Symptoms and treatments vary by disorder
Phenylketonuria (PKU) • Caused by a lack of the enzyme Phenylalanine
Hydroxylase . If not treated, this disease causes irreversible mental retardation from an early stage as a result of a buidup of phenylalanine in the blood. Prevalence within the Arab world 1:2,500.

Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD) • Caused by a lack of the Branched –chain Alpha-Keto
Acid Dehydrogenase complex (BCKDH), which in turn leads to a buildup of Leucine,Isoleucine and Valine in the blood. If untreated ,the disorder causes vomiting,dehydration,seizures and brain damage . The Classic Severe MSUD form of the disease is fatal . Prevalence is roughly 1:80,000 .

Citrullinemia (Argininosuccinic Synthetase Deficiency )
• There are two types of this disorder, Citrullinemia Type I is caused by a lack of the enzyme Argininosuccic synthetase, which converts citrulline and aspartate into argininosuccinate, and is the third step in the urea cycle. Citrullinemia Type II is caused by a defect in Citrin, which is responsible for the transport of molecules across the mitochondrial membrane. In its absence, the urea cycle fails to function properly. Symptoms include vomiting, loss of consciousness, seizures, failure to thrive as a result of the buildup of ammonia within the blood, abnormal behavior and confusion. Prevalence of Type I is 1:57,000. Prevalence of Type II is 1:250,000. •
