  • Title: Erythrocyte enzyme disorders in children.
    Author: Sullivan DW, Glader BE.
    Journal: Pediatr Clin North Am; 1980 May; 27(2):449-62. PubMed ID: 6247687.
    Abstract:
    Erythrocyte metabolic abnormalities should be considered as a possible cause of hemolysis when there is no evidence of an immune-mediated hemolytic anemia, no consumptive red blood cell disorder, no morophologic or laboratory data to suggest a problem of the red cell membrane, and no evidence of a quantitative or qualitative defect in hemoglobin synthesis. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency is clearly the most common enzyme deficiency causing clinical problems.
