Filter by:Glycogen storage disorders (GSD) are a class of inborn metabolic abnormalities characterized by enzymatic defects in glycogen production or breakdown and are one of commonest metabolic disorders of the childhood. Their pathogenesis mostly involves the liver and muscles and can range in severity from minor disorders with a typical lifespan to those that are fatal in infancy. Different GSDs, such as type 0a, I, III (most common type), IV, VI, IX, and XI (based on specific gene variants) are now referred to as hepatic GSDs involving liver (+ muscle). GSDs show clinically in a wide range of ways, and they have typically been identified by combining clinical symptoms, biochemical data, and pathological findings. But due to lack of multicentre evaluation, there is persistent scarcity of data with regard to the overall spectrum of genetic defects in Indian children presenting with GSD, their natural course and genotype-phenotype correlation. Also, there is limited data on common genetic variations in Indian population causing hepatic glycogen storage diseases. An Indian GSD registry is needed to describe the spectrum, natural course, genotype-phenotype correlation, outcome and response to medical therapy in Indian children with GSDs. The study would be the first to extensively describe the genotype of Indian children with GSD and their natural course. Being a multicentric study, the results generated would therefore be applicable to the whole of the country. Understanding the prevalent genotypes in Indian population and their related phenotype would help both the individual management decisions of these patients and further policy making for their diagnosis and treatment. Results from this study could thus guide appropriate decision making based on outcome and help choose the modality of treatment for the individual patient - medical, or liver transplantation.

The goal of this multicentre, randomized and controlled cross-over trial is to evaluate the efficacy of a programme of Inspiratory Muscle Training in subjects with Late On-set Pompe Disease (LOPD). The main question is to: - verify changes in Forced Vital Capacity, Postural Drop, Maximal Inspiratory Pressure, Maximal Expiratory Pressure, Peak expiratory cough pressure, Maximal Inspiratory Capacity, six- minute walk test and or 6-minute pegboard ring test.- - measure changes in some questionnaries investigating dispnoea and quality of life (Short-Form 36, Individualized-Neuromuscular-Quality-of-Life, Maugeri-Respiratory-Failure 28, Borg scale, Dispnoea 12, Mulditimensional Dispnea Profile, modified Medical Research Council, Fatigue Severity Scale, Epsworth Scale, Visual Analogue Scale). Measurement will take place at baseline and after one, three, four, six and twelve months. Participants will undergo a specific treatment consisting of aerobic exercise and Inspiratory Muscle Training with Powerbreathe device or Air-Stacking. Researchers will study if Powerbreathe device is more effective than Air-stacking maneuvres
Newborn screening (NBS) is a global initiative of systematic testing at birth to identify babies with pre-defined severe but treatable conditions. With a simple blood test, rare genetic conditions can be easily detected, and the early start of transformative treatment will help avoid severe disabilities and increase the quality of life. Baby Detect Project is an innovative NBS program using a panel of target sequencing that aims to identify 126 treatable severe early onset genetic diseases at birth caused by 361 genes. The list of diseases has been established in close collaboration with the Paediatricians of the University Hospital in Liege. The investigators use dedicated dried blood spots collected between the first day and 28 days of life of babies, after a consent sign by parents.
The aims of the current study are as follow: i) Evaluate the safety, usability, and acute efficiency of a powered knee-hip dermoskeleton (MyoSuit, MyoSwiss, Zurich, Switzerland) in patients with neuromuscular disorders, ii) Elaborate recommendations regarding usability criteria for safe and efficient use the device in patients with neuromuscular disorders (e.g. type and severity of patient's functional deficits), iii) generate necessary data to foresee a future study involving a home use of the device and assessment of long-term benefits.
The aims of the current study are as follow: i) Evaluate the safety, usability, and acute efficiency of a programmable ambulation exoskeleton (KeeogoTM Dermoskeleton System, B-Temia Inc., Quebec, Canada) in patients with neuromuscular disorders, ii) Elaborate recommendations regarding usability criteria for safe and efficient use the device in patients with neuromuscular disorders (e.g. type and severity of patient's functional deficits), iii) generate necessary data to foresee a future study involving a home use of the device and assessment of long-term benefits.
The main goal of this trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of mRNA-3745 via intravenous (IV) administration in adult and pediatric participants with GSD1a.
This is a prospective cohort study of children with GSD1b to evaluate their outcome after using empagliflozin for neutrophil defects.
The project will use carbon-13 magnetic resonance spectroscopy to assess whether high glycogen levels in skeletal muscle of patients with Glycogen Storage Diseases is a prelude for muscle damage. Patients with Glycogen Storage Diseases will be examined using carbon-13 MR-spectroscopy to quantify the glycogen levels in lumbar, thigh and calf-muscles. The pattern of glycogen concentration will be compared to the pattern of muscle atrophy found in the literature.
