How long can the person of disease of Phenylpyruvate uric acid live?
We can't do anything about phenylketonuria, as a genetic disease and chromosomal abnormality. Because of this, once a child suffers from this disease, we should take a positive attitude. The age of the child with phenylketonuria is uncertain. For such uncertainty, I can only do my best to extend this period, especially in terms of diet, Reduce children's intake of phenylalanine.
Phenylketonuria is a congenital metabolic disease, which is caused by the disorder of phenylalanine metabolism caused by the deficiency of liver phenylalanine hydroxylase caused by chromosome mutation. This disorder can lead to the damage of central nervous system. The child with this disease may be a small abnormal brain. Most of the time, the muscles will be tense, leading to abnormal gait and hand tremor. Because of its hyperreflexia of tendon, the body may repeat actions and so on. Children often show yellow hair, pale skin and iris loss, which is due to the lack of melanin due to phenylalanine metabolism disorder. At the same time, children also accompanied with eczema, vomiting, diarrhea and other symptoms.
Phenylketonuria is often accompanied by many adverse symptoms, such as growth retardation and dysplasia. Growth retardation is mainly manifested in the development of physiology and psychology. The operation IQ is lower than that of normal newborns, especially the language development disorder. Reducing the intake of phenylalanine in brain development syndrome can prevent the limitation of severe mental retardation in newborns, Mental retardation is associated with phenylalanine toxicity, but the more detailed pathophysiological mechanism remains unclear. Skin and hair will show that the skin is often dry, easy to have eczema and skin scratch disease, due to the inhibition of tyrosinase, the synthesis of melanin is reduced, making the hair color lighter. In addition, sweat and urine may smell of mildew or rat urine.
