PDF Document · PDF
| Section | Content |
|---|---|
| Cover | Title page with styled layout |
| 1. Overview & Definition | Normal NH₃ range, danger thresholds, acquired vs. congenital types, incidence |
| 2. Normal Urea Cycle | All 6 enzymatic steps (NAGS → CPS I → OTC → ASS → ASL → Arginase), compartments, net reaction + diagram |

| 4. Enzyme Deficiencies | Detailed table of all 6 enzyme defects (CPS I, OTC, ASS, ASL, Arginase I, NAGS) with inheritance, lab markers, key features + urea cycle diagram |
| 5. Clinical Presentation | Neonatal severe vs. late-onset forms; graded symptom table by NH₃ level |
| 6. Diagnosis | Lab workup table, newborn screening, confirmatory testing, differential diagnosis |
| 7. Treatment Plan | Acute crisis (IV Ammonul, haemodialysis), maintenance (Na-phenylbutyrate, dietary restriction), liver transplantation + nitrogen scavenger mechanism diagram |
| 8. Treatment Algorithm | Step-by-step management table + prognosis summary box |
