[Diagnosis of inborn errors of metabolism using tandem mass spectrometry and gas chromatography mass spectrometry].
[homocystinuria without methylmalonic aciduria]
To
investigate
the
effects
of
tandem
mass
spectrometry
(
MS
/
MS
)
combined
with
gas
chromatography
mass
spectrometry
(
GC
-
MS
)
in
the
diagnosis
of
inborn
errors
of
metabolism
in
children
.
Amino
acids
and
acylcarnitines
in
the
dry
blood
filter
papers
were
tested
by
MS
/
MS
,
and
the
organic
acid
profiles
in
urea
were
tested
by
GC
-
MS
among
4981
children
suspected
to
be
with
inborn
errors
of
metabolism
from
more
than
100
hospitals
in
China
.
A
few
pediatric
patients
underwent
analysis
of
activity
of
enzyme
and
gene
mutation
analysis
too
.
319
of
the
4981
children
(
6

4

were
diagnosed
as
with
24
kinds
of
diseases
:
155
of
the
319
cases
(

8
kinds

150
of
the

were
diagnosed
as
with
10
kinds
of

deficiency
)
;
14
cases
(
4

4
%
)
were
diagnosed
as
with
6
kinds
of
fatty
acid
disorders
(
5
with
medium
chain
acyl-
CoA
dehydrogenase
deficiency
,
3
with

MS
/
MS
is
specific
for
amino
acid
diseases
and

disorders
.
GC

MS
is
specific
for
detect

.
And
the
diagnoses
of
part
of
amino

diseases
need
the
combination
of
both
methods
