description Xiaoxia Wang, Haining Fang Department of Pediatrics, Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Hubei Province, Wuhan, 430070, People’s Republic of ChinaCorrespondence: Haining Fang, Department of Pediatrics, Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Hubei Province, No. 745, Wuluo Road, Hongshan District, Wuhan, 430070, People’s Republic of China, Tel +86 27 87169085, Email fanghaining2022@126.comObjective: To investigate the clinical and gene mutation characteristics of fatty acid oxidative metabolic diseases found in neonatal screening.Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 29,948 neonatal blood tandem mass spectrometry screening samples from January 2018 to December 2021 in our neonatal screening centre. For screening positive, recall review is still suspected of fatty acid oxidation metabolic disorders in children as soon as possible to improve the genetic metabolic disease-related gene detection package to confirm the diagnosis. All diagnosed children were followed up to the deadline.Results: Among 29,948 neonates screened by tandem mass spectrometry, 14 cases of primary carnitine deficiency, six cases of short-chain acyl coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency, two cases of carnitine palmitoyltransferase-I deficiency and one case of multiple acyl coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency were recalled. Except for two cases of multiple acyl coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency that exhibited [manifestations], the other 21 cases were diagnosed pre-symptomatically. Eight mutations of SLC22A 5 gene were detected, including c.51C>G, c.403G>A, c.506G>A, c.1400C>G, c.1085C>T, c.706C>T, c.1540G>C and c.338G>A. Compound heterozygous mutation of CPT1A gene c.2201T>C, c.1318G>A, c.2246G>A, c.2125G>A and ETFA gene c.365G>A and c.699_701delGTT were detected, and new mutation sites were found.Conclusion: Neonatal tandem mass spectrometry screening is an effective method for identifying fatty acid oxidative metabolic diseases, but it should be combined with urine gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and gene sequencing technology. Our findings enrich the gene mutation profile of fatty acid oxidative metabolic disease and provide evidence for genetic counselling and prenatal diagnosis in families.Keywords: fatty acid oxidative metabolic disorder, primary carnitine deficiency, multiple acyl coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency, carnitine palmitoyltransferase-I deficiency, short-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency
