alanine and Acroosteolysis, Giaccai Type

alanine has been researched along with Acroosteolysis, Giaccai Type in 8 studies

Alanine: A non-essential amino acid that occurs in high levels in its free state in plasma. It is produced from pyruvate by transamination. It is involved in sugar and acid metabolism, increases IMMUNITY, and provides energy for muscle tissue, BRAIN, and the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM.
alanine : An alpha-amino acid that consists of propionic acid bearing an amino substituent at position 2.

"In conclusion, we showed that HSAN1 mutations in SPT have distinct biochemical properties, which allowed for the prediction of the clinical symptoms on the basis of the plasma sphingoid base profile."1.43HSAN1 mutations in serine palmitoyltransferase reveal a close structure-function-phenotype relationship. ( Alecu, I; Bode, H; Bourquin, F; Hornemann, T; Othman, A; Suriyanarayanan, S; Von Eckardstein, A; Wei, Y, 2016)

Autonomic Function Testing (AFT) Composite Autonomic Severity Score (CASS)

Autonomic Function Testing (AFT) tests the effectiveness of your autonomic nervous system which regulates important functions such as blood pressure, heart rate, and respiration. AFT results are quantified using the composite autonomic severity score scale (CASS) which is a scale from 0 to 10 that is the sum of three sub scores (cardiovagal, adrenergic, and sudomotor). Cardiovagal is scored from 0 to 3, sudomotor is scored from 0 to 3, and adrenergic is scored from 0 to 4. The tests include deep breathing, Valsalva maneuver, head-up tilt, and a sweat test. The three subscores are then summed. This total represents the CASS which classifies autonomic function as normal functioning (total score 0), mild (total score 1-3), moderate (total score 4-6), or severe (total score 7-10). (NCT01733407)

Charcot Marie Tooth Neuropathy Score

The Charcot Marie Tooth Neuropathy Score (CMTNS) is a 0 to 36 point composite scoring assessment that is used to measure disease severity in Charcot Marie Tooth Neuropathy and other sensory and motor neuropathies. The CMTNS is composed of 9 items that evaluate functions related to disease progression. These 9 parameters include reviewing sensory symptoms, motor symptoms (arms and legs), pinprick sensibility, vibration, leg strength, arm strength, and nerve conduction tests. Each item is scored from 0 to 4, with the lower scores representing less severe symptoms and higher scores representing more severe symptoms.The 9 individual item scores are then totaled to provide a global measure of disease severity. For example the lowest possible total score is 0 which represents an asymptomatic individual and the highest score possible is a 36 which represents an individual with severe disease progression. There are sub scores that can be assessed but sub scores were not utilized in this study (NCT01733407)
