The primary objective of this study is to collect whole blood from patients diagnosed with Glycogen storage disease type 1B, which will be used to support the investigation of potential therapies that address the genetic basis of this disease.
This is a prospective cohort study of children with GSD1b to evaluate their outcome after using empagliflozin for neutrophil defects.
Early Check provides voluntary screening of newborns for a selected panel of conditions. The study has three main objectives: 1) develop and implement an approach to identify affected infants, 2) address the impact on infants and families who screen positive, and 3) evaluate the Early Check program. The Early Check screening will lead to earlier identification of newborns with rare health conditions in addition to providing important data on the implementation of this model program. Early diagnosis may result in health and development benefits for the newborns. Infants who have newborn screening in North Carolina will be eligible to participate, equating to over 120,000 eligible infants a year. Over 95% of participants are expected to screen negative. Newborns who screen positive and their parents are invited to additional research activities and services. Parents can enroll eligible newborns on the Early Check electronic Research Portal. Screening tests are conducted on residual blood from existing newborn screening dried blood spots. Confirmatory testing is provided free-of-charge for infants who screen positive, and carrier testing is provided to mothers of infants with fragile X. Affected newborns have a physical and developmental evaluation. Their parents have genetic counseling and are invited to participate in surveys and interviews. Ongoing evaluation of the program includes additional parent interviews.
The aim of the present study is to determine if there is a change in quality and quantity of sleep perceived by adults and children with GSD and their parents while starting a modified UCCS (Glycosade) to prevent nocturnal hypoglycemia. The investigators also aim to evaluate if there is a change in quality of life perceived by adults and children and their parents with Glycosade.
