This document discusses urea cycle disorders including carbamoyl phosphate synthetase deficiency, ornithine transcarbamoylase deficiency, argininosuccinate synthetase deficiency, argininosuccinate lyase deficiency, arginase deficiency, and N-acetyl glutamate synthase deficiency. The disorders are inherited in an autosomal recessive manner and cause hyperammonemia. Symptoms range from mild to severe and include vomiting, seizures, developmental delays, and coma. Treatment involves reducing protein intake, supplementing with essential amino acids, and medications to help alternative pathways for nitrogen excretion like sodium benzoate, sodium phenylbutyrate, and phenylacetate. Newer treatments discussed are gly
