Presentation
However, the focus of the book remains clinical, describing symptoms and signs at presentation, how to come to a diagnosis and methods for treatment. As with the previous edition, the book can be used in two main ways. [books.google.com]

In conclusion, 1 mg of intramuscular CN-Cbl every week suffices for hematological improvement but not for normal neurological development in patients who all had relapse due to decrease or cessation of treatment. [ingentaconnect.com]
You may also want to contact a university or tertiary medical center in your area, because these centers tend to see more complex cases and have the latest technology and treatments. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]
Prognosis
A broad differential diagnosis is essential in pancytopenia with respect to treatment, prognosis and family planning. [thieme-connect.com]
Prognosis TC is a severe, life-threatening and rapidly progressing disease. Treatment, started early, is highly effective and reverses the clinical and hematological manifestations of the disease. [orpha.net]
People with pernicious anaemia are at increased risk of developing gastric cancer. [ 11 ] Prognosis Before the advent of treatment with B12, the disease was fatal. Hence the name 'pernicious'. [patient.info]
Etiology
Etiology TC is caused by mutations in the TCN2 gene (22q12.2) which encodes transcobalamin, a transporter of cobalamin (vitamin B12). [orpha.net]
Causes of Vitamin B 12 Deficiency States Once vitamin B 12 deficiency is confirmed, a search for the etiology should be initiated. [aafp.org]
Epidemiology

Summary Epidemiology To date, more than 40 cases of TC have been described in the literature. Clinical description TC typically manifests in the first few months of life. [orpha.net]
Epidemiology [ 1 ] The incidence of pernicious anaemia in the UK population is estimated to lie between 1-5/100,000 per annum. [ 3 ] The disease occurs in all races. [patient.info]

Similar to folic acid deficiency, vitamin B 12 deficiency produces hyperhomocys-teinemia, which is an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic disease. 7 Although the role of folic acid supplementation in reducing homocysteine levels as a method for preventing [aafp.org]
