  2. Hyperuricemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperuricemia

    Hyperuricaemia or hyperuricemia is an abnormally high level of uric acid in the blood. In the pH conditions of body fluid , uric acid exists largely as urate, the ion form. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Serum uric acid concentrations greater than 6 mg/dL for females, 7 mg/dL for males, and 5.5 mg/dL for youth (under 18 years old) are defined as hyperuricemia. [ 3 ]

  3. Glycogen storage disease type I - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycogen_storage_disease...

    In GSD I increased availability of G6P for the pentose phosphate pathway, increased rates of catabolism, and diminished urinary excretion due to high levels of lactic acid all combine to produce uric acid levels several times normal. Although hyperuricemia is asymptomatic for years, kidney and joint damage gradually accrue.

  4. Lesch–Nyhan syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lesch–Nyhan_syndrome

    While carrier females are generally an asymptomatic condition, they do experience an increase in uric acid excretion, and some may develop symptoms of hyperuricemia, and experience gout in their later years. Testing in this context has no clinical consequence, but it may reveal the possibility of transmitting the trait to male children.

  5. Gout - Wikipedia

    Underexcretion of uric acid by the kidney is the primary cause of hyperuricemia in about 90% of cases, while overproduction is the cause in less than 10%. [5] About 10% of people with hyperuricemia develop gout at some point in their lifetimes. [19] The risk, however, varies depending on the degree of hyperuricemia.

  7. Inborn errors of carbohydrate metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inborn_errors_of...

    Inactivation of the hepatic fructokinase results in asymptomatic fructosuria. [citation needed] Hereditary fructose intolerance (HFI) results in poor feeding, failure to thrive, chronic liver disease and chronic kidney disease, and death. HFI is caused by a deficiency of fructose 1,6-biphosphate aldolase in the liver, kidney cortex and small ...

  8. Hyperuricosuria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperuricosuria

    Hyperuricosuria is a medical term referring to the presence of excessive amounts of uric acid in the urine.For men this is at a rate greater than 800 mg/day, and for women, 750 mg/day. [1]

  9. Metabolic myopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolic_myopathy

    Some fatty acid oxidation disorders show lactic acidosis, hypoketotic hypoglycaemia and hyperammonemia, while others are asymptomatic. [2] [41] [42] Differentiating between different types of metabolic myopathies can be difficult due to the similar symptoms of each type such as myoglobinuria and exercise intolerance. It has to be determined ...
