Carnitine deficiency has been extensively studied, although most commonly as a secondary finding to other metabolic conditions. [5] The first case of SPCD was reported in the 1980s, in a child with fasting hypoketotic hypoglycemia that resolved after treatment with carnitine supplementation.
Carnitine deficiency is found in about 50% of cases. [18] Over 90% of those diagnosed with 3-Methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase deficiency by newborn screening remain asymptomatic. The medical abnormalities that present in the few who do show symptoms are not always clearly related to 3-Methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase deficiency. [5]

In December 2022, European Child & Adolescent Psychiatry published a systematic literature review of 28 longitudinal studies published from 2011 through 2021 of associations between digital media use by children and adolescents and later ADHD symptoms and found reciprocal associations between digital media use and ADHD symptoms (i.e. that ...
DAMP is diagnosed on the basis of concomitant attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder and developmental coordination disorder in children who do not have a severe learning disability or cerebral palsy. In clinically severe form, it affects about 1.5% of the general population of 7-year-old-children; 3-6% are affected by more moderate variants.
Children with ADHD often feel misunderstood, judged or shamed but with support, they can thrive. "Kids with ADHD would like to do well and they can with the right resources," Saline tells TODAY ...
Carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase deficiency has an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance. Carnitine-acylcarnitine translocase deficiency is a rare, autosomal recessive metabolic disorder that prevents the body from converting long-chain fatty acids into energy, particularly during periods without food.

Signs and symptoms of this disorder include low levels of ketones (hypoketosis) and low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Together these signs are called hypoketotic hypoglycemia. People with this disorder typically also have an enlarged liver (hepatomegaly), muscle weakness, and elevated levels of carnitine in the blood. [2]
