Hearing characteristics of infantile-onset Pompe disease after early enzyme-replacement therapy

Abstract: Background Studies suggest that enzyme-replacement therapy (ERT) is crucial to the survival of patients with infantile-onset Pompe disease (IOPD). Hearing impairment (HI) is one of the clinical sequelae observed in long-term survivors. However, the benefits of early ERT for hearing outcomes have not yet been reported. This study aimed to investigate the impact of early ERT on IOPD patients. Methods This retrospective longitudinal study recruited IO… Show more

“…Recently, the MUNIX (motor unit number index) has been shown to be an useful electrophysiological biomarker for disease progression in pediatric spinal muscular atrophy and for treatment response [30]. Korlimarla et al [31] recently [9,13,16,32]. A recent study suggests that earlier initiation of ERT within 2 weeks after birth appears to contribute to an improvement in hearing function [32].…”

“…The ABR waveforms were analyzed, and the latency of peak V was defined and adjusted by an experienced pediatric neurologist or otolaryngologist. The degree of hearing loss was classified as normal (<25 and ≤35 dB nHL) and abnormal, including mild (>35 and ≤45 dB nHL), moderate (>45 and ≤65 dB nHL), severe (>65 and ≤90 dB nHL), or profound (>90 dB nHL) [ 48 , 49 ].…”

“…A closer follow-up is required for patients with cardiac diseases. The physician should be attentive in testing for the hearing status associated with the disease intervening promptly if any hearing impairment is noticed ( 82 ). CK and liver function tests should be measured every 6–12 months.…”
