Dietary Monosaccharide Supplementation in Patients With Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation

Dietary Monosaccharide Supplementation in Patients With Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation

Researchers are trying to assess whether the use of simple sugars given as a daily dietary supplement can improve the health of children with congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG).

The goal of this study is to collect data from patients diagnosed with congenital disorders of glycosylation and taking a simple sugar supplement. The study team wants to expand the evidence on the beneficial effects of this treatment in clinical practice.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patient has a biochemically and genetically proven congenital disorder of glycosylation
• Patient is receiving (or planning to receive) oral simple sugar supplementation

Exclusion Criteria:

• Aldolase B deficiency
• Galactosemia
• Hemolytic uremic syndrome
• Severe anemia
• Galactose intolerance
