High risk of severe anaemia after chlorproguanil-dapsone+artesunate antimalarial treatment in patients with G6PD (A-) deficiency Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, chlorproguanil-dapsone with artesunate and post-treatment haemolysis in African children treated for uncomplicated malaria Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde
BACKGROUND: Malaria is a leading cause of mortality, particularly in sub-Saharan African children. Prompt and efficacious treatment is important as patients may progress within a few hours to severe and possibly fatal disease. Chlorproguanil-dapsone-artesunate (CDA) was a promising artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT), but its development was prematurely stopped because of safety concerns secondary to its associated risk of haemolytic ...

Vitamin D Deficiency is Highly Prevalent in COPD and Correlates with Variants in the Vitamin D Binding Gene KU Leuven
INTRODUCTION: Vitamin D deficiency has been associated with many chronic illnesses, but little is known about its relation with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). OBJECTIVES: We measured serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels (25-OHD) in 414 (ex)-smokers older than 50 years and assessed the link between vitamin D status and presence of COPD. The rs7041 and rs4588 variants in the vitamin D binding gene (GC) were genotyped and their effects ...
Potential risks of hemolysis after short-term administration of analgesics in children with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency Vrije Universiteit Brussel
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the risk of hemolysis in children with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency after short-term administration of analgesics, such as paracetamol, ibuprofen, tramadol, sufentanil, and parecoxib.
STUDY DESIGN: This was a prospective study of children with G6PD deficiency who were treated with analgesics for 3 days after undergoing surgery. Hemoglobin (Hb) concentration, reticulocyte count, ...

False-Positive Newborn Screen Using the Beutler Spot Assay for Galactosemia in Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency KU Leuven
Classical galactosemia is detected through newborn screening by measuring galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT) in the USA primarily via the Beutler spot assay. We report on an 18-month-old patient with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency that was originally diagnosed with classical galactosemia. The patient presented with elevated liver function enzymes and bilirubinemia and was immediately treated with soy-based ...
