Abstract excerpt
Mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation (FAO) disorders are clinically and biochemically heterogeneous diseases mainly associated with intolerance to catabolic stress. These disorders can now be detected pre-symptomatically by newborn screening, and thus the clinical phenotype in an individual patient may be unclear. Correlation of clinical severity with concentrations of acylcarnitine species was investigated in...
