Study Summary
Urea cycle disorders (UCD) are genetic disorders caused by the liver's inability to break down ammonia from proteins; ammonia then accumulates and is toxic to the brain. UCD cause brain damage and intellectual and developmental disabilities and even death. Treatment for UCD is either conservative management which involves a low-in-protein diet, drugs, and amino acid supplements or liver transplantation; each carries their own risks. This study aims to help patients to make the decision about different management alternatives by providing them with scientific information that is currently lacking. Aim 1 of this study will compare survival, neurocognitive function, and patient-reported quality of life.
