`died before one year ofage and are not included in this
`paper. Four additional patients who have since died
`are included: one deficient
`in carbamyl phosphate
`synlhctase, one in ornithine transcarbamylasc, one in
`argininosuccinate synthetase, and one in argininosuc—
`cinase. Two of the deaths resulted Irom intercurrcnt
`
`hyperammonemic coma, one occurred after an acci-
`dental IO-lbld overdose ofintravenous sodium benzo—
`
`ate and sodium phenylacetale during an episode of
`hyperammoncmia, and one resulted from aspiration
`pneumonia. Postmortem examinations were not per-
`mitted in any of these children.
`
`Neurologlc Function
`
`Table 3 shows that of the ‘24 children, 19 (79 per
`cent) had one or more developmental disabilities: 46
`per cent had cerebral palsy, 79 per cent were mentally
`retarded, 17 per cent had seizure disorders, 54 per cent
`had microccphaly, and one child was blind; 46 per
`cent had more than one handicapping condition. The
`most recent IQ was 43:6 (mean tS.E.M.). Twenty-
`one per cent (live) ofthe children had an IQ above 70;
`broken down by type ol‘dcliciency, the percentages of
`children with an IQ above 70 were as follows: carba-
`myl phosphate synthetase, 0 per cent; ornithine trans-
`carbamylasc, 60 per cent; argininosuccinate synthe-
`tasc, I? per cent; and argininosuccinase, 12 per cent.
`Four of these five children had an attention-deficit
`
`disorder. A paired t-test was performed on the change
`between IQ at 12 months and the most recent IQ
`(mean, 35:4 months; range, 19 to 74) in 19 children.
`The. IQ decreased by 8.6125 points (I’<0.0l) during
`this period.
`Figure 3 shows the relation between duration of
`Stage III or IV neonatal hyperammoncmic coma and
`
`nium level versus (IT-scan rating. The peak ammonium level was
`defined as the highest recorded plasma ammonium level during
`neonatal coma; peak values in the patients have been reported pre-
`viously.2 Excluded from these analyses (other than CT versus eon-
`current IQ) were two patients who were in a coma for
`l2 and
`30 days.
`In addition, a paired t-test was used to determine the significance
`ol‘changes in IQ from l2 months to follow-up at 19 to 74 months.
`Excluded from this analysis were the firm children younger than ll;
`ntonths. Also excluded was a child who had an episode ofhyperant-
`monemic coma at 12 months, associated with Stage IV coma and
`increased intracranial pressure. This child's IQ l'cll Ironi 78 to It)
`and was deemed outside the range we were considering clinically.
`This study was performed between l978 and |982 and involved a
`collaborative effort among 26 medical
`institutions in the United
`States and Europe. Parental consent was obtained, and the study
`was approved by the Joint (Ionnniltee on Clinical Investigation at
`Johns Hopkins Hospital and by the institutional review boards of
`participating hospitals.

`shows mild ventricutomegaly and patchy areas at parenchymal low density (CT rating, 2.5) in a six-month—old intent with argininosuccin-
`ase deficiency. Scan C shows ventriculomegaly. prominent sulci. and subcortical low-density areas (CT ratlng. 5.0) in a 14-month-old
`child with argininosuccinase deficiency.
