Assessing a Mitochondrial Disease Treatment via a Novel Statistical Technique for Accelerometer Data
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Therapeutic development for mitochondrial diseases, rare genetic disorders with pathogenic defects of oxidative phosphorylation, is hindered by unsatisfactory outcome measures. To address this problem, we provide the first clinical application of a novel, bias‐adjusted outcome measure of acceleration across a range of subjects ...
