A case study of hypophosphatasia: An underdiagnosed bone disorder characterized by low alkaline phosphatase.
Abstract: Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare genetic metabolic bone disorder that is underdiagnosed. Although there are many forms of this disease, based on age of onset, symptoms, and severity, HPP is characterized by low serum alkaline phosphatase levels, bone fractures, and dental complications. Diagnosis of HPP is made from clinical, laboratory, and radiologic findings. Genetic testing for an ALPL gene variant responsible for causing HPP confirms a molecular diagnosis. Distinguishing HPP from other more common bone disorders, such as osteoporosis, is important as the treatment for these diseases differs greatly. Although there is no known cure for HPP, treatment should be holistic and multidisciplinary.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners (JAANP) is a monthly peer-reviewed professional journal that serves as the official publication of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners.
Published since 1989, the JAANP provides a strong clinical focus with articles related to primary, secondary, and tertiary care, nurse practitioner education, health policy, ethics and ethical issues, and health care delivery. The journal publishes original research, integrative/comprehensive reviews, case studies, a variety of topics in clinical practice, and theory-based articles related to patient and professional education. Although the majority of nurse practitioners function in primary care, there is an increasing focus on the provision of care across all types of systems from acute to long-term care settings.
