It is caused by a mutation in one of at least three different genes resulting in a faulty, inefficient, absent or overproduced protein. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Rare Disease Database is a unique educational resource for patients and caregivers that NORD has maintained for more than 30 years. It is the first stop for more than 80% of the approximately one million visits to the NORD website each month. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NORD\u2019s reports are overviews of specific rare diseases covering causes, signs &amp; symptoms, affected population, related disorders, standard and investigational therapies, and resources, including patient organizations. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Currently, there are more than 1,200 reports in the database. New topics are frequently added and existing reports are constantly being reviewed and updated. Before a new report can be published or an existing one updated, it must be reviewed by a medical professional with expertise on the topic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.feinberg.northwestern.edu\/sites\/diabetes\/members\/profile.html?xid=10250\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Daniel Batlle MD<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, of the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, served as medical reviewer for the dRTA report.

Some individuals may only have slightly elevated acid levels and no accompanying symptoms. Some have only small kidney stones. However, the disorder can cause severe complications, often during infancy, if unrecognized and untreated.<\/span><\/p>\n<div>For information on a current clinical trial related to this condition, visit the following page on ClinicalTrials.gov:\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/clinicaltrials.gov\/ct2\/show\/NCT03644706?term=advicenne&amp;rank=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/clinicaltrials.gov\/ct2\/show\/NCT03644706?term%3Dadvicenne%26rank%3D2&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1555598145442000&amp;usg=AFQjCNErNcUn5RdCHB8r1H0yCxtrqiuZYg\">https:\/\/<wbr \/>clinicaltrials.gov\/ct2\/show\/<wbr \/>NCT03644706?term=advicenne&amp;<wbr \/>rank=2<\/a><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The dRTA report was made possible by a donation from Advicenne.
