SICKLE CELL ANEMIA

Alternate names

SICKLE CELL ANEMIA Is also known as sickle cell disease

Description

Sickle cell anemias are chronic hemolytic diseases that may induce three types of acute accidents: severe anemia, severe bacterial infections, and ischemic vasoocclusive accidents (VOA) caused by sickle-shaped red blood cells obstructing small blood vessels and capillaries. Many diverse complications can occur.

Most common symptoms of SICKLE CELL ANEMIA

  • Intellectual disability
  • Pain
  • Anemia
  • Hypertension
  • Hepatomegaly

CAD-CDG

Alternate names

CAD-CDG Is also known as cdg syndrome type iz, cdg-iz, congenital disorder of glycosylation, type iz, formerly, congenital disorder of glycosylation type 1z, carbohydrate deficient glycoprotein syndrome type iz, cdg1z, cdg1z, formerly

Description

CAD-CDG is a rare congenital disorder of glycosylation caused by mutations in the CAD gene and characterized by epileptic encephalopathy, global developmental delay, normocytic anemia and anisopoikilocytosis. Loss of acquired skills in early childhood is present and natural disease course can be lethal in early childhood.

Most common symptoms of CAD-CDG

  • Seizures
  • Global developmental delay
  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Anemia
  • Encephalopathy
