NO
In AADC deficiency, 3-O-methyldopa (3-OMD), a metabolite of levodopa, accumulates and is detected in the blood, and we have developed a system to detect it.1 Since the blood test can easily screen for elevated 3-OMD levels, the primary goal is to identify patients in Japan who can be treated, This is primarily intended to identify patients in Japan who can be treated and lead to early treatment. It also provides information on the prevalence of elevated 3-OMD and aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency (AADC deficiency) in a group of cerebral palsy-like patients of unknown aetiology.
Others
The validity of the test as a screening test will also be evaluated, since patients who test positive will undergo genetic diagnosis by Kazusa DNA under the care of their primary care physician as part of their insurance reimbursement. The cost of the entire test, including labor costs, will also be calculated, and the possibility of outsourcing the test to an outside vendor and providing insurance reimbursement will be evaluated.

Diagnosis
| Maneuver |
When a patient who is the subject of the study is seen, the materials will be used by the principal investigator/associate investigator to explain the disease AADC deficiency and the significance of the 3-OMD screening test to the patient/proxy, and consent for the study will then be obtained. If consent is obtained, filter blood (approximately 0.04 ml) will be collected for the study.
After drying, the filter paper blood will be sent to Jichi Medical University. (Since the sample volume is 0.04 ml, it is assumed that the study will be conducted using surplus blood from a normal blood collection and that no new blood sampling will be required in many cases, but it is possible that blood sampling will be conducted only for this filter paper blood collection.) The application form should include the identification number, sex, age, date of specimen collection, and special instructions only, and the reasons why the patient is considered for screening (see "Application Form Checklist" below) should be checked and mailed together with the filter paper blood. The Jichi Medical University Department of Pediatrics will measure the 3-OMD and make a decision as to whether it is normal or abnormally high.
