TL;DR: Patients with cystic acne frequently report feeling self conscious, anxiety and social isolation, according to a national survey of patients with the condition.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vivo effects of high phenylalanine blood levels on Na+,K+-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase activities and biogenic amine concentrations in phenylketonuria.

TL;DR: High Phe and/or low NA, DA, 5HT plasma levels may indirectly inhibit the erythrocyte membrane Na+,K+-ATPase and Mg2+- ATPase in PKU patients, and the observed enzyme inhibitions could be a very informative peripheral marker as regards the neurotoxic Phe brain effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal – neonatal serum selenium and copper levels in Greeks and Albanians
Kleopatra H. Schulpis,Theodoros Karakonstantakis,S. Gavrili,G Chronopoulou,George A. Karikas,George Vlachos,Ioannis Papassotiriou +6 more
TL;DR: The low Se and Cu levels evaluated in the Albanian mothers and their newborns could be related to their poor animal protein intake which could be the consequence of their low socioeconomic status.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morning preprandial plasma ghrelin and catecholamine concentrations in patients with phenylketonuria and normal controls: evidence for catecholamine-mediated ghrelin regulation.
Kleopatra H. Schulpis,Ioannis Papassotiriou,Maria Vounatsou,George A. Karikas,Stylianos Tsakiris,George P. Chrousos +5 more
TL;DR: The absence of a correlation between ghrelin and catecholamines, energy intake, or BMI in PKU patients on an inadequate diet may be due to dysregulation of their neuroendocrine system and might be affected by high Phe levels in the stomach and/or central nervous system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum Carnitine Level in Phenylketonuric Children under Dietary Control in Greece
TL;DR: Although total, free and esterified carnitine blood levels were found to be low (p < 0.001) in phenylketonuric patients under dietary treatment compared to controls, no clinical signs of Carnival deficiency were noticed.
