1 INBORN ERRORS OF METABOLISM (IEM)
IAP UG Teaching slides

2 IAP UG Teaching slides 2015-16
OBJECTIVES What are IEMs? Categories When to suspect? History and clinical pointers Metabolic presentation Differential diagnosis Emergency and long term management Expanded newborn screening IAP UG Teaching slides

3 IAP UG Teaching slides 2015-16
WHAT ARE IEMS? Monogenic disorders primarily Autosomal Recessive resulting from deficiency of: - A critical enzyme in the intermediary pathways of carbohydrate, protein and lipid metabolism or - A co-factor which is responsible for activation of an apoenzyme in the same pathways IAP UG Teaching slides

4 IAP UG Teaching slides 2015-16
WHAT ARE IEMS? Clinical effects result from: Lack of the product Accumulation of immediate and remote precursors/ toxic byproducts Secondary metabolic consequences IAP UG Teaching slides

5 IEMS: A FORMIDABLE CHALLENGE
Number and Complexity Diverse clinical manifestations Mimic many common pediatric illnesses including sepsis, encephalopathy Limited availability of lab services Emergency and long term care Counseling IAP UG Teaching slides

6 IAP UG Teaching slides 2015-16
CATEGORIES OF IEM Carbohydrate - Oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) disorders - Glycogen storage disorders, Galactosemia Protein - Urea cycle disorders - Organic acidemias - Aminoacidopathies Lipids - Fatty acid oxidation disorders (FAOD) - Disorders of carnitine transport IAP UG Teaching slides

7 IAP UG Teaching slides 2015-16
CATEGORIES OF IEM Lysosomal storage disorders (LSD): - Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS), sphingolipidosis Peroxisomal disorders Mitochondrial disorders IAP UG Teaching slides

8 IAP UG Teaching slides 2015-16
CASE ILLUSTRATION A 6 month old male, 2nd order, born of non consanguinity, admitted for diarrhoea and dehydration H/O Sibling death with suspected Reye syndrome (encephalopathy) No developmental delay/ failure to thrive O/E: Moderate dehydration, rapid breathing, drowsy Hepatomegaly, firm, span 8cm IAP UG Teaching slides

9 WHEN TO SUSPECT IEM? CLINICAL POINTERS - HISTORY
Developmental delay (DD), regression, mental retardation (MR) Refractory seizures Encephalopathy Rapid breathing (Acidotic) Failure to thrive, episodic vomiting Unusual body odours Life threatening illnesses following seemingly minor infections Consanguinity, family history of sibling deaths, DD/MR, seizures IAP UG Teaching slides

10 ABNORMAL URINARY ODOURS
Disorder Odor Phenylketonuria Musty Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD) Maple syrup or burnt sugar Isovaleric acidemia, Glutaric acidemia type 2 Sweaty feet Multiple carboxylase deficiency Cat urine IAP UG Teaching slides

11 WHEN TO SUSPECT IEM? CLINICAL POINTERS - EXAMINATION
Cataract, corneal clouding, cherry red spot Micro/ Macrocephaly, coarse facies Alopecia, intertrigo Hepatomegaly, liver dysfunction Splenomegaly Abnormal CNS examination Skeletal deformities IAP UG Teaching slides

12 CLINICAL POINTERS TO DIAGNOSE IEM
Feature disorder Eye Cataract Corneal clouding Cherry red spot Galactosemia MPS: Hurler, Scheie, Morquio , Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome Tay-Sachs, Niemann Pick Skin - Alopecia, intertrigo Hair – Coarse, kinky Biotinidase deficiency Menkes kinky hair disease Hepato ± splenomegaly LSD: MPS, sphingolipidosis, GSD Hepatomegaly & liver dysfunction Galactosemia, tyrosinemia, GSD Cardiomyopathy LSD, GSD, FAOD, mitochondrial disorders IAP UG Teaching slides

13 CASE ILLUSTRATION: INVESTIGATIONS
GRBS: 45 mg/dl; Urine ketones: Positive ABG: pH 7.09, pCO2 14.8,BE – 23.6, HCO3 4.5 Metabolic acidosis Anion gap 33 - Wide NH3 328 µg/dl (N: 25-94) - Hyperammonemia Lactate 28.8 mg/dl (N:2.5-20) – Lactic acidosis FINAL DIAGNOSIS – ORGANIC ACIDEMIA IAP UG Teaching slides

14 WHEN TO SUSPECT IEM? LAB POINTERS
Metabolic acidosis Wide anion gap Hyperammonemia Hypoglycemia: Urine Ketones (Ketotic/ non ketotic) Urine Reducing substances (Positive/ Negative) Lactic acidosis Altered liver function IAP UG Teaching slides

15 IAP UG Teaching slides 2015-16
Hyperammonemia Lactic Acidosis Hypoglycemia No Ketonuria Amino acid disorders present Metabolic Acidosis Absent Ketosis Urea Cycle Fatty Acid Oxidation disorders Organic Acidemias GSD OXPHOS disorders IAP UG Teaching slides

16 IAP UG Teaching slides 2015-16
DEFINITIVE DIAGNOSIS Blood: Tandem mass spectrometry for acyl carnitine, organic acids Plasma and urine amino acids (quantitative) Urine organic acids by chromatography Specific metabolite assays DNA mutation analysis Enzyme assays on skin fibroblasts or blood cells IAP UG Teaching slides

17 DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS
Sepsis: - Can mimic, precipitate and complicate IEM - Galactosemia – predilection for E coli sepsis - Negative CRP and blood culture in a rapidly deteriorating infant should alert to possible IEM Reye encephalopathy - An important differential for FAOD with hepatomegaly, hypoglycemia, hyperammonemia and hepatic dysfunction IAP UG Teaching slides

18 IAP UG Teaching slides 2015-16
MANAGEMENT GOALS Prevention of formation of toxic metabolites Removal of toxic metabolites Increase activity of deficient enzyme by co-factor therapy (Mega vitamins) Addition of deficient substrate Supply essential nutrients/ disease specific diet IAP UG Teaching slides

19 MANAGEMENT: EMERGENCY
ABC Correction of hypoglycemia and maintenance of blood sugars to suppress gluconeogenesis Correction of acidosis: IV Sodium bicarbonate with serial ABGs Carnitine supplementation Broad spectrum antibiotics including anaerobic cover IAP UG Teaching slides

20 HYPERAMMONEMIA – MANAGEMENT
Hemodialysis for rapid reduction Decrease production: I.V. Arginine HCl Promote excretion: I.V. sodium benzoate and sodium phenyl acetate Calories: carbohydrate/ lipid; reintroduction of protein after 48 hours restricted to 1 g/kg with 50% essential amino acids Avoid valproate, steroids IAP UG Teaching slides

21 IAP UG Teaching slides 2015-16
Vitamin Dosage/ day Indications Biotin mg Holo carboxylase deficiency Biotinidase Riboflavin 100 mg Glutaric aciduria Electron Transport Chain defects Thiamine 300 mg MSUD Pyruvate met defects Mitochondrial Vit B12 1 - 2 mg Methyl malonic acidemia Homocystinuria Pyridoxine 50 – 100 mg Dependent seizures IAP UG Teaching slides

22 IAP UG Teaching slides 2015-16
DIET MANAGEMENT Restriction of proteins: 6% of total energy Restriction of substrates which accumulate - Homocystinuria: Methionine - PKU: phenylalanine Special diets: - PKU, MSUD, galactosemia Replacement of deficient nutrients - Homocystinuria: cystein IAP UG Teaching slides

23 EXPANDED NEWBORN SCREENING
Pre-symptomatic detection of newborns that includes several IEM Originated with the development of the ‘‘Guthrie test’’ for detecting phenylketonuria Dried Blood Spots: Heel prick blood at hours of age on absorbent paper (Guthrie card) and analyzed by tandem mass spectrometry IAP UG Teaching slides

24 IAP UG Teaching slides 2015-16
IEMS ARE: Individually rare but collectively have an incidence of 1 in 5000 Presentation can occur at any age, even in adulthood Increasingly a primary/ differential diagnosis especially in infancy “Index of suspicion” - The most difficult step in diagnosis is considering the possibility!
