Correction: The clinical spectrum and natural history of early-onset diseases due to DNA polymerase gamma mutations.

Since the online publication of the article, the authors have noted errors with Table 2; this has now been corrected in both the HTML and the PDF.

Near infrared spectroscopy with a vascular occlusion test as a biomarker in children with mitochondrial and other neuro-genetic disorders.

Background: Mitochondrial and neurogenetic diseases can present diagnostic challenges. We investigated if near infrared spectroscopy with the vascular occlusion test is able to differentiate between children with mitochondrial disease and children with neurogenetic disease or healthy controls.

Methods: Prospective observational study conducted in a tertiary children's hospital.

The clinical spectrum and natural history of early-onset diseases due to DNA polymerase gamma mutations.

PurposeMutations in POLG, the most common single-gene cause of inherited mitochondrial disease, are diagnostically challenging owing to clinical heterogeneity and overlap between syndromes. We aimed to improve the clinical recognition of POLG-related disorders in the pediatric population.MethodsWe performed a multinational, phenotype: genotype study using patients from three centers, two Norwegian and one from the United Kingdom.
