A Case of Dominantly Inherited β Thalassemia Due to Hb Dieppe
You Kyoung Choi, Hong Jin Lee, Won Il Park, Kyung Ja Lee, Sung Ha Kang, Ji Yeon Kim, Sung Sup Park
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(5):659-663.   Published online May 15, 2002
β thalassemias are usually transmitted as autosomal recessive traits. However, some dominant forms of β thalassemia have been identified in individuals who have inherited a single copy of an abnormal β globin gene. Thalassemia intermedia with mild anemia, jaundice, and splenomegaly has been observed in these patients. Electrophoresis has shown elevated Hemoglobin(Hb) A2 and Hb F levels. In particular, there...

Maple syrup urine disease is an autosomal recessive disease caused by a deficiency of the branched-chain α-ketoacid dehydrogenase complex. The disease is often suspected because of the peculiar odor of maple syrup in urine. Maple syrup urine disease is usually confirmed by amino acid analysis and urine organic acid analysis showing marked elevations of leucine, isoleucine, valine, and respective ketoacids in...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1996;39(10):1405-1413.   Published online October 15, 1996
Purpose : There are many methods for the evaluation of the renal function. The proximal tubule of the nephrons have a role of reabsorption of the materials such as water, electrolytes, glucose, amino acids, and small molecular weight protein through the glomerular filtration. Therefore if abnormality is in the proximal tubule, these materials can be changed both in serum & urine. It is very...
