Article Synopsis
  • Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 (CPS-1) deficiency is a rare urea cycle disorder affecting approximately 1 in 150,000-200,000 newborns, often causing severe hyperammonemia shortly after protein intake, leading to high mortality rates in early-onset cases.
  • A case study of a newborn male with elevated ammonia levels due to CPS-1 deficiency shows he received urgent treatments, including dextrose infusion, ammonia-scavenging therapy, peritoneal dialysis, and ultimately, a liver transplant from his father at six months of age.
  • The study highlights the potential benefits of liver transplantation in CPS-1 deficiency cases and suggests that carglumic acid could improve long-term

Freezing of Gait (FOG) is a noticeable symptom of Parkinson's disease, like being stuck in place and increasing the risk of falls. The wearable multi-channel sensor system is an efficient method to predict and monitor the FOG, thus warning the wearer to avoid falls and improving the quality of life. However, the existing approaches for the prediction of FOG mainly focus on a single sensor system and cannot handle the interference between multi-channel wearable sensors.
