  • Recurrent Infection

    Individuals with Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome are at increased risk for recurrent infection, such as aspiration pneumonia. These individuals require careful management with consideration for this increased risk of recurrent infection. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    CONCLUSIONS: Individuals with Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome are at increased risk for recurrent infection, such as aspiration pneumonia. These individuals require careful management with consideration for this increased risk of recurrent infection. [mct8.info]

    Side effects range from heart rhytym irregularities and aspiration due to avid suckling. In the case of overtreatment, craniosyntosis or a change in skull growth pattern can occur before the baby’s brain is completely formed. [thyroidbasics.com]

  • Esotropia

    All affected siblings presented with classic findings of Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome, and each of the siblings also developed intermittent esotropia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Cup-Shaped Ears

    Cup-shaped ears, thickening of the nose and ears, upturned earlobes, and a decrease in facial creases are also reported. Neuromuscular. Truncal hypotonia persists into adulthood. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Suggestibility

    This group of affected siblings represents the first consistent documentation of strabismus in Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome, suggesting a possible association between this clinical finding and the neurologic syndrome. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Spastic Paraplegia

    Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome (AHDS), an X linked condition, is characterized by severe intellectual disability, dysarthria, athetoid movements, muscle hypoplasia and spastic paraplegia in combination with altered TH levels, in particular, high serum [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Dysarthria

    Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome, an X-linked condition characterized by severe intellectual disability, dysarthria, athetoid movements, muscle hypoplasia, and spastic paraplegia, is associated with defects in the monocarboxylate transporter 8 gene (MCT8 [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Hyporeflexia

    The neurologic syndrome is variable, but usually includes lower motor neuron dysfunction with hypotonia, muscle weakness and atrophy, and hyporeflexia. Some patients may show additional signs such as dystonic posturing and/or spasticity. [mendelian.co]

    As adults, affected individuals may have generalized muscular wasting (atrophy), permanent fixation of multiple small and large joints in various fixed postures (joint contractures) and/or decreased reflex reactions (hyporeflexia). [rarediseases.org]

  • Cholesterol Increased

    Cholesterol increased in two subjects. There was no weight loss and weight gain occurred in two. None of the treated children required a gastric feeding tube or developed seizures. No adverse effects were observed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Indeed, heart rate and SHBG declined significantly in all four children, whereas cholesterol increased in two and ferritin declined in one. [doi.org]

Iodothyronines in CSF are low irrespective of treatment, suggesting blood-CSF barrier transport of T3-T4 is restricted in AHDS. [hdl.handle.net]

The current trial will investigate if Triac treatment in ADHS patients reduces the toxic effects of the high T3 levels restores the local TH deficiency in brain. [clinicaltrials.gov]
