SERIES  NOTE

Current Bibliographies in Medicine (CBM) is a continuation in
part of the National Library of Medicine's Literature Search
Series, which ceased in 1987 with No. 87-15.  In 1989 it also
subsumed the Specialized Bibliography Series.  Each bibliography
in the new series covers a distinct subject area of biomedicine
and is intended to fulfill a current awareness function. 
Citations are usually derived from searching a variety of online
databases.  NLM databases utilized include MEDLINE, AVLINE,
BIOETHICSLINE, CANCERLIT, CATLINE, HEALTH, POPLINE and TOXLINE. 
The only criterion for the inclusion of a particular published
work is its relevance to the topic being presented; the format,
ownership, or location of the material is not considered.

GAUCHER DISEASE

Gaucher disease is a rare enzyme deficiency disorder which
researchers estimate may be present in 10,000 to 20,000
Americans.  It is the most frequently inherited disorder in the
Ashkenazic Jewish population.  Gaucher disease is characterized
by a remarkable degree of variability in its clinical signs and
symptoms, ranging from severely affected infants to asymptomatic
adults.  Many patients suffer from anemia, bone damage, and
enlarged livers and spleens, while a few develop severe central
nervous system damage and die.  All Gaucher patients have a
genetic defect in the enzyme glucocerebrosidase which results in
the accumulation of the lipid glucocerebroside in the lysosome.

On the basis of clinical signs and symptoms, patients with
Gaucher disease have been classified into three major types: (1)
non-neuropathic; (2) acute neuropathic; and (3) subacute
neuropathic.  The most striking difference among the three types
is the presence of neurologic manifestations and the rate of
their progression, but even people with the same type of the
disorder may differ in clinical presentation.  For example, some
patients with type 1 Gaucher disease, which is by far the most
common type, may display anemia, low blood platelets, massively
enlarged livers and spleens, and extensive skeletal disease.  In
contrast, other type 1 patients may have no symptoms and are
identified only during screening or evaluation for other
diseases.

The gene for the enzyme glucocerebrosidase on chromosome 1q21 has
been characterized and sequenced, and multiple mutations in this
gene have been identified.  Genotypic data is being used to
determine to what extent a person's phenotype or prognosis can be
accurately predicted through current DNA mutation analysis. 
While the availability of molecular techniques has made possible
early prenatal diagnosis, detection of individuals carrying the
disease, and population screening for Gaucher disease, the
advisability and usefulness of these techniques remain
unresolved.

Gaucher disease has been traditionally managed by supportive
therapy including total or partial removal of the spleen,
transfusions, orthopedic procedures, and occasionally bone marrow
transplantation.  More recently, enzyme replacement therapy has
become available and has proven to be an effective treatment. 
However, the therapy is quite costly.  Researchers are still
investigating the optimal doses of this enzyme preparation which
may need to be individualized for specific patients, as well as
other novel strategies for enzyme therapy and gene therapy.

This bibliography was prepared in support of the National
Institutes of Health Technology Assessment Conference on Gaucher
Disease: Current Issues in Diagnosis and Treatment convened in
Bethesda, Maryland on February 27-March 1, 1995.  The purpose of
the conference was to evaluate current concepts concerning
diagnosis, genetic counseling, and management of Gaucher disease
in response to the following questions:

1.  What is the natural history of Gaucher disease and what is
the appropriate technology to assess the severity and to predict
the progression of this disorder?

2.  What are the roles of current molecular and enzymatic assays
for ascertaining affected individuals and carriers in various
populations?

3.  What are the indications for treatment of patients with
Gaucher disease and what are the appropriate modes of therapy?

4.  What are the goals for and consequences of treatment and how
can the therapeutic interventions be assessed?

5.  Under what circumstances could genotype/phenotype
correlations be used for patient care and counseling?

6.  What are appropriate directions for future research?

The bibliography emphasizes journal articles in the English
language published between 1984 and the present.  Selected
dissertations, books, and earlier literature to 1966, as well as
editorials and letters to the editor, have also been included. 
Arrangement of the bibliography is by 11 subject categories.

SEARCH  STRATEGY

A variety of online databases are usually searched in preparing
bibliographies in the CBM series.  To assist you in updating or
otherwise manipulating the material in this search, the strategy
used for the NLM's MEDLINE database is given below.  Please note
that the search strategies presented here differ from individual
demand searches in that they are generally broadly formulated and
irrelevant citations edited out prior to printing.

SS 1 = GAUCHER'S DISEASE

SS 2 = GLUCOSYLCERAMIDASE OR GLUCOSYLCERAMIDES OR
ALL GLUCOCEREBROSID:

SS 3 = (TW) ALGLUCERASE OR CEREDASE OR IMIGLUCERASE OR
CEREZYME

SS 4 = 1 OR 2 OR 3

SS 5 = JEWS OR JEWISH (TW) OR ASHKENAZI (TW)

SS 6 = LYSOSOMAL STORAGE DISEASES OR LYSOSOMES OR   
METABOLISM, INBORN ERRORS

SS 7 = 5 AND 6

SS 8 = GENETIC COUNSELING OR GENETIC SCREENING OR
MASS SCREENING

SS 9 = ETHICS, MEDICAL OR HEREDITARY DISEASES

SS 10 = 8 AND 9

SS 11 = 4 OR 7 OR 10

GRATEFUL MED

To make online searching easier and more efficient, the Library
offers GRATEFUL MED, microcomputer-based software that provides a
user-friendly interface to most NLM databases.  This software was
specifically developed for health professionals and features
multiple choice menus and "fill in the blank" screens for easy
search preparation.  GRATEFUL MED runs on an IBM PC (or IBM-
compatible) with DOS 2.0 or a Macintosh, and requires a Hayes (or
Hayes-compatible) modem.  It may be purchased from the National
Technical Information Service in Springfield, Virginia, for
$29.95 (plus $3.00 per order for shipping).  For your
convenience, an order blank has been enclosed at the back of this
bibliography.

SAMPLE  CITATIONS

Citations in this bibliographic series are formatted according to
the rules established for Index Medicus*.  Sample journal and
monograph citations appear below.  For journal articles written
in a foreign language, the English translation of the title is
placed in brackets; for monographs, the title is given in the
original language.  In both cases the language of publication is
shown by a three letter abbreviation appearing at the end of the
citation.  Note also that a colon (:) may appear within an
author's name or article title.  The NLM computer system
automatically inserts this symbol in the place of a diacritical
mark.
