Absence or low individual and public risk
Anaemia due to disorders of nucleotide metabolism - what does this mean
Anaemia due to disorders of nucleotide metabolism is a rare hereditary disorder caused by a deficiency in the enzymes required to break down certain nucleotides, resulting in an accumulation of these molecules in the blood and causing anaemia.
What happens during the disease - anaemia due to disorders of nucleotide metabolism
Anaemia due to disorders of nucleotide metabolism is caused by an impaired ability of the body to produce and/or utilize nucleotides, which are the building blocks of dna and rna. this can lead to a decrease in the production of red blood cells, resulting in a decrease in the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood. this can lead to fatigue, shortness of breath, and other symptoms associated with anaemia.

How does a doctor diagnose
- Complete Blood Count (CBC) Test
- Red Blood Cell Indices Test
- Peripheral Blood Smear Test
- Ferritin Test
- Thyroid Function Tests
- Vitamin B12 and Folate Tests
- Liver Function Tests

- Genetic Tests
Treatment and Medical Assistance
Main goal of the treatment: Reduce the symptoms of anaemia due to disorders of nucleotide metabolism.
- Prescribe an appropriate diet that includes foods high in iron, folate, and vitamin B12.
- Prescribe iron supplements to increase iron levels.
- Prescribe folic acid supplements to increase folate levels.
- Prescribe vitamin B12 supplements to increase vitamin B12 levels.
- Prescribe medications to reduce inflammation.
- Prescribe medications to reduce the production of red blood cells.
- Prescribe medications to reduce the breakdown of red blood cells.
- Refer the patient to a specialist for further testing and evaluation.
- Refer the patient to a hematologist for further treatment.
- Recommend lifestyle changes, such as increasing physical activity and reducing stress.
8 Days of Hospitalization Required
Average Time for Outpatient Care Not Established
Anaemia due to disorders of nucleotide metabolism - Prevention
The best way to prevent anaemia due to disorders of nucleotide metabolism is to maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle. eating foods rich in iron, folate, and vitamin b12, as well as avoiding alcohol and tobacco, can help reduce the risk of developing this disorder. additionally, regular physical activity and adequate sleep are important for maintaining overall health and can help reduce the risk of anaemia due to disorders of nucleotide metabolism.
