Popis: | OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical and genetic characteristics of patients with neonatal intrahepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency (NICCD) and idiopathic neonatal cholestasis (INC). METHODS: The clinical data of 30 patients with NICCD and 30 patients with INC admitted in Children’s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University during September 2012 and December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical manifestations, biochemical indicators and genetic characteristics were compared between two groups. RESULTS: Patients in both groups presented similar clinical manifestations, however the chubby face and clay-colored stool were more common in NICCD patients (both PA and c.919G>T were two novel mutations. CONCLUSIONS: The manifestations of chubby face and clay-colored stool may provide clue for early diagnosis of NICCD along with the elevated biochemical parameters, such as ammonium, alpha-fetal protein, citrulline in blood and 4-hydroxyphenyllactic acid, 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid, phenyllactic acid in urine. Target gene trapping and high-throughput sequencing have the key values in diagnosis and differential diagnosis of NICCD. |
