Clinical InformationClinical

  • Hyperuricemia

    excessive uric acid or urate in blood as defined by its solubility in plasma at 37 degrees c; greater than 0.42mmol per liter (7.0mg/dl) in men or 0.36mmol per liter (6.0mg/dl) in women. this condition is caused by overproduction of uric acid or impaired renal clearance. hyperuricemia can be acquired, drug-induced or genetically determined (lesch-nyhan syndrome). it is associated with hypertension and gout.

  • Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome

    an inherited disorder transmitted as a sex-linked trait and caused by a deficiency of an enzyme of purine metabolism; hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase. affected individuals are normal in the first year of life and then develop psychomotor retardation, extrapyramidal movement disorders, progressive spasticity, and seizures. self-destructive behaviors such as biting of fingers and lips are seen frequently. intellectual impairment may also occur but is typically not severe. elevation of uric acid in the serum leads to the development of renal calculi and gouty arthritis. (menkes, textbook of child neurology, 5th ed, pp127)

  • Hypoxanthine Phosphoribosyltransferase

    an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate and hypoxanthine, guanine, or mercaptopurine to the corresponding 5'-mononucleotides and pyrophosphate. the enzyme is important in purine biosynthesis as well as central nervous system functions. complete lack of enzyme activity is associated with the lesch-nyhan syndrome, while partial deficiency results in overproduction of uric acid. ec 2.4.2.8.

  • Normocytic Anemia

    anemia in which the red blood cell volume is normal.

Patient EducationClinical

Anemia

If you have anemia, your blood does not carry enough oxygen to the rest of your body. The most common cause of anemia is not having enough iron. Your body needs iron to make hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is an iron-rich protein that gives the red color to blood. It carries oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body.

Footnotes

[1] Not chronic - A diagnosis code that does not fit the criteria for chronic condition (duration, ongoing medical treatment, and limitations) is considered not chronic. Some codes designated as not chronic are acute conditions. Other diagnosis codes that indicate a possible chronic condition, but for which the duration of the illness is not specified in the code description (i.e., we do not know the condition has lasted 12 months or longer) also are considered not chronic.
