Extractions: Methylmalonic acidemia has amino and organic acid profiles similar to propionic acidemia, but also has very high levels of methylmalonic acid and higher lactic acid levels than propionic acidemia due to inhibition of pyruvate carboxylase. Some patients with methylmalonic acidemia also show homocystinuria, hypomethioninemia, and cystothioninuria. Propionic and methylmalonic acidemias may produce pancytopenia. The diagnosis of propionic and methylmalonic acidemias are established by finding decreased activity of propionyl-CoA carboxylase in leukocytes or cultured skin fibroblasts and decreased activity of methylmalonyl-CoA mutase in liver and cultured fibroblasts. A neutral pH does not exclude propionic and methylmalonic acidemias since the lactic acid elevation that occurs with these organic acidemias is usually in the 3 to 6 mmol/L range and a neutral pH is maintained until levels of lactic acids are at least 5 mmol/L. Treatment of propionic and methylmalonic acidemias consists of metabolic support, elimination of protein intake, removal of ammonia, and carnitine supplementation. In addition, neonates with propionic acidemia should be given biotin and those with methylmalonic acidemia should be given vitamin B12. Propionyl-CoA carboxylase deficiency also occurs in multiple carboxylase deficiency.

Extractions: Oman Introduction: Subject and Methods: This study was carried out retrospectively on head injury patients due to trauma admitted through accident and emergency department of Khoula Hospital, Muscat, Sultanate of Oman for the period of two years starting from January 1999 to December 2000. Glasgow Coma Scale was used to assess the level of severity of head injury and was classified as mild, moderate and severe. Objectives: The main aim of the study was to determine the morbidity and mortality due to head injury among trauma victims admitted in Khoula Hospital. Results: Of the total head injury patients due to trauma received at accident and emergency department Khoula Hospital, 54.2% were due to falls, 42.1% due to road traffic accidents, 3.2% due to assaults and 0.5 % due to sports injuries. Mortality was 7.4% in admitted head injury patients. Among them 86.6% died due to road traffic accidents, 12.8% due to falls and 0.6% due to assaults.

Extractions: Revision accepted: November 2, 2000. Patients and Methods Results Inborn errors of metabolism were suspected in 231 patients. The diagnosis of organic acidemias was confirmed in 32 patients in whom results of GC-MS were available. In 24 patients, the mean age at presentation was 12.5 months (range 2-48 months). The remaining 8 were neonates and their clinical characteristics were studied as a separate group. There were 22 boys and 10 girls. Parental consanguinity was found in 11 (34.3%). Propionic acidemia and respiratory chain disorders seen in 19.3% each were the commonest organic acidemias diagnosed in this series followed by tricarboxylic acid cycle defects in 12.9% and methylmalonic acidemia in 9.6%. Rare disorders detected in this study were glutaric aciduria type I, holocarboxylase synthase deficiency, 3-methylglutaconic acid-uria type X, beta ketothiolase deficiency and carnitine-palmitoyltransferase deficiency with distal renal tubular acidosis (RTA).

Extractions: Volume 94 No. 2 February 1998 Prenatal detection of inborn errors of metabolism The latest developments in mass spectrometry provide a highly sensitive and flexible means of automatically screening for biological markers. This extends the range of detecting sometimes fatal genetic disorders, in an unborn baby for instance, from the presence and ratios of certain chemicals in a blood sample. The Department of Biochemistry and Microbiology at Potchefstroom University considers that more than 400 human disorders may be caused by mutations of a single gene. Most of the individual diseases are quite rare but collectively their incidence is considerable. Approximately 100 inborn errors of metabolism can now be detected prenatally, most by testing for the primary enzyme defect, some by measuring abnormal amounts of specific metabolites or high molecular weight storage material, and some by demonstrating the mutation at DNA level. Having recently acquired a Micromass Quatro II triple quadrupole LCMS/MS for tandem mass spectrometry, the department has progressed from its earlier gas phase system to a liquid one able rapidly to analyse acylcarnitine metabolites, amino acids and bile acids in whole blood and urine. The apparatus is so versatile that it can also be used for peptide and protein analysis.

Extractions: The effect of protein distribution on nitrogen balance and the plasma aminogram was studied in a 34-month-old male child with propionic acidemia. Protein provided 4.8% of energy of which high biological value protein was given either as a bolus or evenly distributed in three meals per day. Analysis of nitrogen balance including estimated sweat nitrogen losses revealed no major difference between the two diets. No marked differences in the fasting plasma concentrations of essential amino acids were noted with protein distribution. A generalized increase in concentration of all

Propionic acidemia usually presents in the newborn period with severe metabolic acidosis and lethargy. A 31-year-old man with adult onset chorea and dementia had propionic acidemia due to propionyl CoA carboxylase deficiency. Metabolic investigations may prove useful in patients with movement disorder of unknown etiology.

Branski, R. Gale, E. Gross-Kieselstein and A. Abrahamov Three siblings suffering from recurrent vomiting, hypotonia, hyperpnea, dehydration, and ketoacidosis were diagnosed as having ketotic hyperglycinemia secondary to propionic acidemia. They also had leukopenia and thrombocytopenia, and two of them had anorectal malformations, one an imperforate anus with rectoperineal fistula, and the other an ectopic anus. The occurrence of propionic acidemia and anorectal anomalies in three siblings out of eight children in a consanguineous marriage suggests an autosomal recessive genetic inheritance.
