Background: Glycogen storage disease type Ib (GSD Ib) is an autosomal recessively inherited deficiency of the glucose-6-phosphate translocase (G6PT). Clinical features include a combination of a metabolic phenotype (fasting hypoglycemia, lactic acidosis, hepatomegaly) and a hematologic phenotype with neutropenia and neutrophil dysfunction. Dietary treatment involves provision of starches such as uncooked cornstarch (UCCS) and Glycosade® to provide prolonged enteral supply of glucose. Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is the treatment of choice for neutropenia. Because long-term stimulation of hematopoiesis with G-CSF causes serious complications such as splenomegaly, hypersplenism, and osteopenia; hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has been considered in some patients with GSD Ib to correct neutropenia and avoid G-CSF related adverse effects. Whether HSCT also has an effect on the metabolic phenotype and utilization of carbohydrate sources has not been determined. Objective: Our objective was to measure the utilization of starch in a patient with GSD Ib before and after HSCT using the minimally invasive 13C-glucose breath test (13C-GBT). Design: A case of GSD Ib (18y; female) underwent 13C-GBT four times: UCCS (pre-HSCT), UCCS (3, 5 months post-HSCT) and Glycosade® (6 months post-HSCT) with a dose of 80 g administered via nasogastric tube after a 4 h fast according to our patient's fasting tolerance. Breath samples were collected at baseline and every 30 min for 240 min. Rate of CO2 production was measured at 120 min using indirect calorimetry. Finger-prick blood glucose was measured using a glucometer hourly to test hypoglycemia (glucose |
