Abstract
Over a 12-year period (1983 to 1994), 11 cases of classical galactosaemia were identified in the Saudi Aramco Medical Services Organization (SAMSO). This yields an incidence of 12 cases per 100,000 live births in the Easter Province of Saudi Arabia. A higher proportion of infants presented with infections compared to reports in the literature. Screening for galactosaemia is highly recommended in this high-risk population.
摘要
在12年期间（1983年至1994年），沙特阿美石油公司医疗服务组织（SAMSO）确诊了11例典型半乳糖血症病例。这使得沙特阿拉伯东部省份每10万例活产儿中的发病率为12例。与文献报道相比，出现感染症状的婴儿比例更高。强烈建议对这一高危人群进行半乳糖血症筛查。
