The signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia are present (see section below on Signs and Symptoms) [2] [10] A low blood glucose measurement is present, typically less than 70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L) [2] The signs and symptoms of hypoglycemia resolve after blood glucose levels have returned to normal [2]
GLUT1 deficiency is characterized by an array of signs and symptoms including mental and motor developmental delays, infantile seizures refractory to anticonvulsants, ataxia, dystonia, dysarthria, opsoclonus, spasticity, other paroxysmal neurologic phenomena and sometimes deceleration of head growth also known as microcephaly. The presence and ...
Mannose supplementation relieves the symptoms in MPI-CDG for the most part, [39] even though the hepatic fibrosis may persist. [40] Fucose supplementation has had a partial effect on some SLC35C1-CDG patients. [41] In 2024, it was reported that a study suggested that Ibuprofen might be helpful as a treatment for one such genetic disease. [42]

The two organs most commonly affected are the liver and the skeletal muscle. Glycogen storage diseases that affect the liver typically cause hepatomegaly and hypoglycemia; those that affect skeletal muscle cause exercise intolerance, progressive weakness and cramping. [1] Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase deficiency affects step 2 of glycolysis.
Most individuals with G6PD deficiency are asymptomatic.When it induces hemolysis, the effect is usually short-lived. [5]Most people who develop symptoms are male, due to the X-linked pattern of inheritance, but female carriers can be affected due to unfavorable lyonization or skewed X-inactivation, where random inactivation of an X-chromosome in certain cells creates a population of G6PD ...
Citrin deficiency (CD) is an inherited autosomal recessive metabolic condition and a urea cycle disorder. Citrin deficiency is a complex disorder with several age-dependent phenotypes. A hallmark symptom of citrin deficiency is a strong dietary preference for foods rich in protein and fat, while being low in carbohydrates.
A non-exhaustive list of causes of pathologic ketotic hypoglycemia is listed below: [2] Growth hormone deficiency; Glycogen storage diseases. Glycogen storage disease type IX is a particularly common cause of ketotic hypoglycemia, with the subtype IXa mainly affecting male children [6] Maple syrup urine disease; Prader-Willi syndrome
