naphthalene and Glucosephosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency

naphthalene has been researched along with Glucosephosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency in 13 studies

Glucosephosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency: A disease-producing enzyme deficiency subject to many variants, some of which cause a deficiency of GLUCOSE-6-PHOSPHATE DEHYDROGENASE activity in erythrocytes, leading to hemolytic anemia.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Naphthalene toxicity usually occurs abruptly and leads to acute hemolysis, methemoglobinemia, renal failure, respiratory depression, and acute brain dysfunction that are difficult to manage."5.05Naphthalene Toxicity in Clinical Practice. ( Pannu, AK; Singla, V, 2020)
"To describe the prevalence and severity of naphthalene-associated hemolysis (NA1) and infection-associated hemolysis (IAH) in children with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6-PD) deficiency."3.70Association of naphthalene with acute hemolytic anemia. ( Santucci, K; Shah, B, 2000)
" In areas similar to Toronto, Canada, where these high-risk ethnic groups prevail, the following measures are recommended: (1) detection of G-6-PD deficient newborns by screening cord bloods of all infants of these ethnic groups; (2) protection of affected infants from potentially hemolytic agents such as naphthalene, certain vitamin K preparations, and sulfonamides; and (3) observation of serum bilirubin levels to assess the need for exchange transfusion for hyperbilirubinemia."3.64RED CELL GLUCOSE-6-PHOSPHATE DEHYDROGENASE DEFICIENCY--A NEWLY RECOGNIZED CAUSE OF NEONATAL JAUNDICE AND KERNICTERUS IN CANADA. ( KOSOY, MH; NAIMAN, JL, 1964)
"Naphthalene was most likely the primary ingredient in all the mothballs purchased for the study."1.38Health risks of using mothballs in Greater Accra, Ghana. ( Clarke, EE; Ed Nignpense, B; Hoffman, RS; Nyadedzor, C; Soghoian, S, 2012)
" Hemolytic anemia was also found in G6PD-deficient mice at this dosage of naphthalene."1.37Development of a novel mouse model of severe glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD)-deficiency for in vitro and in vivo assessment of hemolytic toxicity to red blood cells.
