Experts publish 15 recommendations for diagnosis and care in isovaleric acidemia
A study published in a journal and reviewed by independent scientists. Even so, a single study is not conclusive; it needs to be replicated.
An international group of experts reviewed published studies on isovaleric acidemia. The disease can range from severe crises to mild types that cause no symptoms at all. The experts wrote 15 recommendations for diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up. The aim is for patients everywhere to receive similar care.
What does it mean for patients and families?
These recommendations are aimed at doctors, and the available evidence is limited. The diet and crisis plan are set for each patient together with the doctor.
