Cardiac involvement (CI) in phosphomannomutase 2-congenital disorders of glycosylation (PMM2-CDG) is part of the multisystemic presentation contributing to high mortality rates. The most common cardiac manifestations are pericardial effusion, cardiomyopathy, and structural heart defects. A genotype-phenotype correlation with organ involvement has not yet been described. We analyzed clinical, biochemical, and molecular genetic data of 222 patients from eight European centers and characterized the natural course of patients with CI. Fifty-seven patients (45 children) presented with CI, of whom 24 died (median age 21 months, standard deviation 49.8). Pericardial effusion was the most frequent manifestation (55.4%), occurring mostly within the first 6 months of life. The most common pathogenic variants in patients with CI were p.(Arg141His) in 74%, followed by p.(Val231Met) in 36%, which is 3.5 times higher than in PMM2-CDG patients without CI (p < 0.0001). Twenty-one out of 36 patients with p.(Val231Met) had CI; among them, 15 died, compared to 33 out of 166 patients without p.(Val231Met) who had CI (p < 0.0001). Nine out of 33 patients died (p = 0.0015), indicating greater clinical severity. Furthermore, the p.(Val231Met) variant is predominant in Eastern Europe, suggesting a founder effect. Cardiac complications in PMM2-CDG patients are common and serious. The variant p.(Val231Met) profoundly influences the extent of CI and mortality rates. Therefore, we recommend cardiac surveillance be included in the follow-up protocols for PMM2-CDG.

BACKGROUND: Advances in paediatric type 1 diabetes management and increased use of diabetes technology have led to improvements in glycaemia, reduced risk of severe hypoglycaemia, and improved quality of life. Since 1993, progressively lower HbA1c targets have been set. The aim of this study was to perform a longitudinal analysis of HbA1c, treatment regimens, and acute complications between 2013 and 2022 using data from eight national and one international paediatric diabetes registries. METHODS: In this longitudinal analysis, we obtained data from the Australasian Diabetes Data Network, Czech National Childhood Diabetes Register, Danish Registry of Childhood and Adolescent Diabetes, Diabetes Prospective Follow-up Registry, Norwegian Childhood Diabetes Registry, England and Wales' National Paediatric Diabetes Audit, Swedish Childhood Diabetes Registry, T1D Exchange Quality Improvement Collaborative, and the SWEET initiative. All children (aged ≤18 years) with type 1 diabetes with a duration of longer than 3 months were included. Investigators compared data from 2013 to 2022; analyses performed on data were pre-defined and conducted separately by each respective registry. Data on demographics, HbA1c, treatment regimen, and event rates of diabetic ketoacidosis and severe hypoglycaemia were collected. ANOVA was performed to compare means between registries and years. Joinpoint regression analysis was used to study significant breakpoints in temporal trends. FINDINGS: In 2022, data were available for 109 494 children from the national registries and 35 590 from SWEET. Between 2013 and 2022, the aggregated mean HbA1c decreased from 8·2% (95% CI 8·1-8·3%; 66·5 mmol/mol [65·2-67·7]) to 7·6% (7·5-7·7; 59·4mmol/mol [58·2-60·5]), and the proportion of participants who had achieved HbA1c targets of less than 7% (<53 mmol/mol) increased from 19·0% to 38·8% (p<0·0001). In 2013, the aggregate event rate of severe hypoglycaemia rate was 3·0 events per 100 person-years (95% CI 2·0-4·9) compared with 1·7 events per 100 person-years (1·0-2·7) in 2022. In 2013, the aggregate event rate of diabetic ketoacidosis was 3·1 events per 100 person-years (95% CI 2·0-4·8) compared with 2·2 events per 100 person-years (1·4-3·4) in 2022. The proportion of participants with insulin pump use increased from 42·9% (95% CI 40·4-45·5) in 2013 to 60·2% (95% CI 57·9-62·6) in 2022 (mean difference 17·3% [13·8-20·7]; p<0·0001), and the proportion of participants using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) increased from 18·7% (95% CI 9·5-28·0) in 2016 to 81·7% (73·0-90·4) in 2022 (mean difference 63·0% [50·3-75·7]; p<0·0001). INTERPRETATION: Between 2013 and 2022, glycaemic outcomes have improved, parallel to increased use of diabetes technology. Many children had HbA1c higher than the International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes (ISPAD) 2022 target. Reassuringly, despite targeting lower HbA1c, severe hypoglycaemia event rates are decreasing. Even for children with type 1 diabetes who have access to specialised diabetes care and diabetes technology, further advances in diabetes management are required to assist with achieving ISPAD glycaemic targets.

BACKGROUND: Auer rods (AuRs) are prominent intracellular structures found almost exclusively in myeloid cell malignancies, such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic and juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome. Extremely rare AuRs have been reported in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or among ambiguous lineage leukemia patients with a dominantly lymphoblastic immunophenotype. PROCEDURE: We report diagnostic and follow-up data of an international cohort of 11 children suffering from leukemias with AuRs and with significant presence of T and myeloid markers, majority of whom categorized as early T-cell precursor (ETP, n = 7); or T-ALL (ETP status unknown, n = 2), ALAL (acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage, n = 1), and AML reclassified from ALAL (n = 1). We described other diagnostic details and treatment types and responses. Moreover, we summarize previously published data. RESULTS: Among the four patients who started and remained on ALL-type therapy, all were in the first complete remission, whereas both patients who started and remained on AML-type therapy relapsed and died. Of the patients who followed either a combined ALL/AML protocol (Interfant 06) or who switched from one of the two types of therapy to the other, one patient died, and the remaining four were in first complete remission at the most recent follow-up. We also searched for similar cases in the literature and found only three additional children with nonmyeloid leukemia and AuRs and 10 adults with this type of leukemia. CONCLUSIONS: Briefly, ALL- or combined ALL/AML-type therapy may be effective for treating AuR-positive leukemia patients with a lymphoid immunophenotype.

ALDH7A1 deficiency is an epileptic encephalopathy whose seizures respond to treatment with supraphysiological doses of pyridoxine. It arises as a result of damaging variants in ALDH7A1, a gene in the lysine catabolism pathway. α-Aminoadipic semialdehyde (α-AASA) and Δ1-piperideine-6-carboxylate (P6C), which accumulate because of the block in the lysine pathway, are diagnostic biomarkers for this disorder. Recently, it has been reported that 6-oxo-pipecolic acid (6-oxo-PIP) also accumulates in the urine, CSF and plasma of ALDH7A1-deficient individuals and that, given its improved stability, it may be a more suitable biomarker for this disorder. This study measured 6-oxo-PIP in urine from a cohort of 30 patients where α-AASA was elevated and showed that it was above the normal range in all those above 6 months of age. However, 6-oxo-PIP levels were within the normal range in 33% of the patients below 6 months of age. Levels increased with age and correlated with a decrease in α-AASA levels. Longitudinal analysis of urine samples from ALDH7A1-deficient patients who were on a lysine restricted diet whilst receiving supraphysiological doses of pyridoxine showed that levels of 6-oxo-PIP remained elevated whilst α-AASA decreased. Similar to α-AASA, we found that elevated urinary excretion of 6-oxo-PIP can also occur in individuals with molybdenum cofactor deficiency. This study demonstrates that urinary 6-oxo-PIP may not be a suitable biomarker for ALDH7A1 deficiency in neonates. However, further studies are needed to understand the biochemistry leading to its accumulation and its potential long-term side effects.

Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors are effective anti-inflammatory agents for treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC).1 According to drug regulatory agencies and international guidelines, JAK inhibitors should be avoided during pregnancy and lactation.2-4 The existing evidence on safety of JAK inhibitors during pregnancy is scarce and almost exclusively limited to tofacitinib.4-7.

Hepatorenal tyrosinaemia (HT1) is an autosomal recessive disorder of tyrosine degradation resulting in hepatic and renal dysfunction, neurological sequelae may occur in some patients. The use of nitisinone (NTBC) has revolutionised treatment and outcome of this disorder. NTBC has to be combined with a low protein diet. While NTBC modulates the disease course in HT1 patients, several issues are open. Optimal dosage, doses per day, therapeutic range of NTBC concentration, mode of protein restriction and biomarkers are not well defined. HCC and neurocognitive deficits are long-term sequelae. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to minimise the risk for these complications. Clinical guidance for management of HT1-patients is required. Randomised clinical studies are difficult in the presence of therapeutic options. We discussed these issues in a consensus group of 10 paediatricians, 1 adult hepatologist, 1 geneticist, 2 dieticians, 2 newborn screening specialists with experience in HT1, 1 psychologist and 2 representatives of a patient group from the German-speaking countries (DACH). Recommendations were based on scientific literature and expert opinion, also taking into account recent experience with newborn screening. There was strong consensus that newborn screening using succinylacetone (SA) and early treatment are essential for a good outcome. The dose of NTBC should be as low as possible without losing metabolic control. This has to be accompanied by a low protein diet, in some patients a simplified diet without calculation of protein intake. Specific education and psychosocial support are recommended. Indications for liver transplantation were defined. Monitoring shall include clinical findings, levels of SA, tyrosine, phenylalanine and NTBC in (dried) blood.
