Description

The guest editors have compiled expert authors to provide current updates on the clinical management of inborn errors of metabolism. Authors have contributed clinical review articles on the following topics: Inborn errors of metabolism overview: pathophysiology, manifestations, evaluation, and management; Inborn errors of metabolism with acidosis: organic acidemias and defects of pyruvate and ketone body metabolism; Inborn errors of metabolism with hyperammonemia: urea cycle defects and related disorders; Inborn errors of metabolism with hypoglycemia: glycogen storage diseases and gluconeogenesis defects; Inborn errors of metabolism with myopathy: defects of fatty acid oxidation and carnitine transport; Inborn errors of metabolism with seizures: defects of glycine and serine metabolism and co-factor related disorders; Inborn errors of metabolism with hepatopathy: metabolism defects of galactose, fructose, and tyrosine; Inborn errors of metabolism with cognitive impairment: metabolism defects of phenylalanine, homocysteine and methionine, purine and pyrimidine, and creatine; Inborn errors of metabolism with movement disorders: defects in metal transport and neurotransmitter metabolism; Inborn errors of metabolism involving complex molecules: lysosomal and peroxisomal storage diseases; Inborn errors of metabolism with complex phenotypes: mitochondrial disorders and congenital disorders of glycosylation; and Newborn screening: history, current status, and future directions.
