  2. Transient hyperammonemia of the newborn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transient_hyperammonemia...

    This ammonia primarily exists as ammonium ion that has a concentration less than or around 35 μmol/L in normal referenced serum levels. [3] Excess ammonia is processed in the liver through the urea cycle to produce urea. [3] Excess ammonia can be produced by bacterial hydrolysis of intestinal compounds, purine nucleotide cycles, the ...

    In any case, hyperammonemia is generally defined as ammonia levels greater than 50 μmol/L in adults and greater than 100 μmol/L in newborns. [2] [4] These values should be considered as decision limits and the normal reference ranges of individual laboratories should be used for clinical interpretation. [4]

    Quickly diagnosing UCDs is critical. Toxic ammonia levels can rise rapidly in affected individuals, which if left untreated, can cause coma and death. Newborns with severe UCDs typically become catastrophically ill within 36-48 hours after birth.

  6. Citrullinemia type I - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citrullinemia_type_I

    Other diseases that may appear similar to CTLN1 include the organic acidemias and citrullinemia type II. To diagnose CTLN1, a blood test for citrulline and ammonia levels can indicate the correct diagnosis; high levels of both are indicative of this disorder. Newborns are routinely screened for CTLN1 at birth.

    For most substances presented, the optimal levels are the ones normally found in the population as well. More specifically, optimal levels are generally close to a central tendency of the values found in the population. However, usual and optimal levels may differ substantially, most notably among vitamins and blood lipids, so these tables give ...

  8. Orotic aciduria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orotic_aciduria

    This can be distinguished from hereditary orotic aciduria by assessing blood ammonia levels and blood urea nitrogen (BUN). In OTC deficiency, hyperammonemia and decreased BUN are seen because the urea cycle is not functioning properly, but megaloblastic anemia will not occur because pyrimidine synthesis is not affected.
