      Objective To study the impact of gender, puberty, and pregnancy on the expression of POLG disease, one of the most common mitochondrial diseases known. Methods Clinical, laboratory, and genetic data were collected ...
    • Safety of drug use in patients with a primary mitochondrial disease: An international Delphi-based consensus 

      De Vries, Maaike C.; Brown, David A.; Allen, Mitchell E.; Bindoff, Laurence; Gorman, Gráinne S.; Karaa, Amel; Keshavan, Nandaki; Lamperti, Costanza; McFarland, Robert; Ng, Yi Shiau; O'Callaghan, Mar; Pitceathly, Robert D. S.; Rahman, Shamima; Russel, Frans G. M.; Varhaug, Kristin Nielsen; Schirris, Tom J. J.; Mancuso, Michelangelo (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Clinical guidance is often sought when prescribing drugs for patients with primary mitochondrial disease. Theoretical considerations concerning drug safety in patients with mitochondrial disease may lead to unnecessary ...
    • Simplifying the clinical classification of polymerase gamma (POLG) disease based on age of onset; studies using a cohort of 155 cases 

      Hikmat, Omar; Naess, Karin; Engvall, Martin; Klingenberg, Claus; Rasmussen, Magnhild; Tallaksen, Chantal; Brodtkorb, Eylert; Østergaard, Elsebet; de Coo, Irenaeus F.M.; Pias-Peleteiro, Leticia; Isohanni, Pirjo; Uusimaa, Johanna; Darin, Niklas; Rahman, Shamima; Bindoff, Laurence (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Background Variants in POLG are one of the most common causes of inherited mitochondrial disease. Phenotypic classification of POLG disease has evolved haphazardly making it complicated and difficult to implement in ...
