Phenylketonuria

Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a rare but critical metabolic disorder that is caused by a deficiency of an enzyme responsible for breaking down the amino acid phenylalanine, leading to its toxic buildup in the body.

Pyloric Stenosis

Pyloric stenosis is a relatively common gastrointestinal disorder among infants that occurs when the muscle at the lower end of the stomach (pylorus) thickens, leading to the narrowing of the passage between the stomach and the small intestine.

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) causes infections of the lungs and respiratory tract. Infection with respiratory syncytial virus which manifests primarily as bronchiolitis or viral pneumonia, is the leading cause of lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) in infants and young children.

Reye’s Syndrome

Reye's syndrome typically occurs after a viral illness, particularly an upper respiratory tract infection, influenza, varicella, or gastroenteritis, and is associated with the use of aspirin during the illness.

Ascariasis (Roundworms) is the name of an infection caused by the roundworm Ascaris lumbricoides; when a worm lives inside the human body, the condition is called a parasitic infection.
