Abstract
⺠59 PDC-deficient subjects had 47 mutations of PDHA1 (53 cases), PDHB, and DLAT. ⺠No pathogenic mutations were found in 33 (36%) of PDC deficient subjects. ⺠Mortality was greatest in first 4 years and in males (56%) vs. females (25%). ⺠Female survivors had lower cognitive function and more brain malformations. ⺠Male survivors had higher frequency of Leigh syndrome.
