Presentation
Myopia is sometimes present. The ERG reveals generalized rod and cone dysfunction in some eyes, but may be normal in others. In many eyes the ERG is nonrecordable. Cataracts are frequently present. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
Children with the NALD presentation may reach their teens, and those with the IRD presentation may reach adulthood. [mendelian.co]
Symptoms present at birth, and continuous. [102] Symptoms may be present at birth or early infancy. [102] Purpuric rash presenting at birth or in infancy. Vasculitis noted on skin biopsy. [autoinflammatory-search.org]
The sensitivity of general organic acid analysis is inadequate for recognizing the very low concentrations of mevalonic acid present in control urine. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
Some researchers break down the infantile multisystem stage into two distinct clinical presentations. [rarediseases.org]
Entire Body System
- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
These include criteria for the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, dementia of Lewy-body type, frontal lobe dementias, chronic fatigue syndrome, and inflammatory neuropathies. [books.google.de]
Treatment
Put the very latest scientific and genetic discoveries, diagnostic imaging methods, drug therapies, treatment recommendations, and surgical techniques to work in your practice. [books.google.de]

Affected individuals should talk to their physician and medical team about their specific case, associated symptoms and overall prognosis. [rarediseases.org]
Prognosis In early-onset multisystemic MVA, the prognosis is poor, with about half of patients succumbing in infancy or early childhood [ 4 ]. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
Pulmonary hypoplasia is common which, together with kidney and liver disease, is responsible for the poor prognosis of most infants. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]
Increased understanding of the normal developmental pathways within neuronal development hopefully will lead to better treatment and prognosis for patients suffering from a wide variety of nonprogressive neurological conditions and neurodegenerative diseases [docplayer.net]
Etiology
Some of the syndromes with an unknown etiology have overlapping features (Norio and Raitta 1986), and it is only when the molecular etiology is known that a comprehensive classification system will be realized. [docplayer.net]
They are characterized predominantly by changes in the posterior pole of genetic etiology, and are often bilateral and symmetrical. [atlasrleye.com]

Heredity (in about 30 O/o of cases) and constitutional disposition, manifested as higher irritability of the 44 vegetative nervous system, play an important role in the etiology of stuttering and cluttering. [docslide.com.br]
Etiology For MVA, seven mutations have been identified in 10 out of 20 known patients [ 7 ]. Most of these mutations cluster in the C-terminal region of the protein. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]

Epidemiology MVA is a rare disease. So far, approximately 30 patients have been reported. HIDS seems to be more common. In 2001, the number of reported HIDS patients was about 180 [ 6 ] and more patients have been identified since. [ojrd.biomedcentral.com]
