No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this study is to assess nutritional intake (quantitatively and qualitatively), nutritional state and body composition of patients suffering from mitochondrial cytopathy, compared to healthy controls. The energy intake will be calculated through dietary protocols, the energy expenditure by indirect calorimetry and body composition will be performed with bio-impedance analysis. Further on, the investigators expect to be able to provide nutritional counselling to this population in order to increase energy and protein intake, which may improve health and well-being.
