Screening Flashcards
NBS: High arginine
Check PAA, orotic acid, ammonia
- if abnormal -> Argininemia (Arginase Def)
- Can get RBC enzyme levels
NBS: Elevated Citrulline
Actions: Ammonia, PAA, UAA
- Citrullinemia type 1 - UCD
- Citrin deficiency - cholestasis, fatty liver, FTT, hyperketotic hypoglycemia
- Arginosuccinic aciduria (+ ASA) - UCD
- Pyruvate Carboxylase (+ Lys, Ala, Pro) - lactic acidosis, encephalopathy, hypoglycemia, developmental issues
NBS: high citrulline
PAA: high cit, Ala, Lys, Pro
UOA: 2 oxoglutaic acid
High lactate, decreased ketones
Pyruvate Carboxylase Deficiency
Biochem: High lactate, pyruvate, ketones, ammonia
- high Cit, Ala, Lys, Pro, 2 oxoglutaric acid
Clinical: Acidosis, neurological, FTT
NBS: high Leu
Action: Send urine ketones, PAA, UOA
MSUD (increased Val, Ile, Leu and brached chain oxo/OH acids)
Hydroyprolinemia (high hydroxyproline, BCAA normal)
NBS: Abnormal Methionine
Action: PAA, Plama homocysteine, Plasma MMA
Homocystinuria (Met high, Hcy high)
MAT, GNMT, SAHH (Met high, Hcy normal)
MTHFR/CblE/CblG (Met low, Hcy high, MMA normal)
CblC/CblD/CblF (Met low, Hcy high, MMA high)
NBS: high methionine
Action: PAA, Hcy, MAA
Homocystinruia (high Hcy)
MAT/GNMT/SAHH (n-mildly elevated Hcy)
NBS: Low Met
Action: PAA, Hcy, MMA
CblE, CblG, MTHFR (High Hcy, normal MMA)
CblC, CblD, CblF (High Hcy, high MMA)
NBS: high Phe
Action : PAA -> if Phe high start diet, get urine pterins and RBC DHPR
PKU (pterins normal)
DHPR (pterins, DHPR assay abnormal)
GTPCH, PTPS, SR, PCD (pterins abnormal)
NBS: high tyrosinie, normal SUAC
Action: PAA
Tyrosinemia type II (Tyr very high)
Tyrosinemia type III or TPN (Tyr high)
NBS: SUAC high, normal or mildly elevated Tyr
Action: Routine labs, PAA, UOA, AFP
Tyrosinemia type I (Tyr n-high, AFP high, SUAC high)
- Consider molecular testing regardless
NBS: low C0, Acyl-carnitines low-nl
Action: Routine labs, Total and Free carnitine (plasma and urine)
Carnitine uptake defect (C0 low, total carnitine low-nl) - get OCTN2 gene analysis or tranporster assay
If C0 and total carnitine normal - consider maternal CUD and rule out GA1
NBS: High C0/C16+C18
Action: routine labs, ACP, F/T Carnitine
CPT1 (C0 high, long chain AC low)
- can get enzyme/CPT1A analysis
NBS: high C4, +/- C5
Action: Routine labs, ACP, UOA
GA2
Ethylmalonic encephalopathy (C4 high, Ethylmalonic acid, methylsuccinic acid, isovalerylglycine)
If all normal can still be mild GA2
- Get moleculr testing for GA2 (ETF/ETF-QO) or EE (ETHE1) if suspected
NBS: High C4
Action: Routine labs, UOA, ACP
IBDH deficiency (C4 high, Isobutrylglycine high) - ACAD8 (ABDH) sequencing
SCAD (C4 high, EMA) - SCAD sequencing
Ethylmalonic encephalopathy (C4 high, EMA, Isovaleryl glycine, methylsuccinic acid) - ETHE sequencing
NBS: high C4OH, normal C5OH/C5:1
Action: Routine labs, ACP, UOA, Insulin level, confirm C5OH/C5:1 are normal (if high consider organic acidurias)
SCHAD (C4OH high, OH-dicarboxylic acids, 3hydroxy glutarate) - Can get molecular testing
NBS: High C8, C6, or C10

- Get confirmatory gene testing
NBS: high C14:1
Action : Labs, CPK, ACP
VLCAD (elevated C14, C16, C18s OR Gene sequencing)
