Disorders of Galactose Metabolismscovered either through newborn screening for hypergalactosemia, or by the chance finding of reducing substance in urine, or by selective urine screening for galactose in infants or older persons examined for nuclear cataracts. In the undiagnosed newborn drinking milk, cataracts develop insidiously

In the third, fructose-1,6-diphosphatase deficiency, gluconeogenesis is severely impaired; this defect will be described elsewhere..In this chapter the two inherited abnormalities of fructose metabolism are described: deficiency of fructokinase and deficiency of fructose-1-phosphate aldo

The clinical syndromes may present predominantly as encephalopathies, myopathies, or encephalomyopathies.

The incidence of PKU is on average one in 10 000 births. A low-phenylalanine diet introduced within the first weeks of life prevents the symptoms of this disease provided the treatment is w

Survivors develop cataracts and mental impairment. Diagnosis is suggested by the presence of reducing substance in the urine of the fed newborn, and it is made by enzyme assay on
