Comparative Analysis of Dietary Patterns in Children With Phenylketonuria Phenotypes and Controls: Implications for Nutritional Status. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Individuals with phenylketonuria (PKU), caused by different variants of the phenylalanine hydroxylase gene, need to restrict their intake of phenylalanine. This study evaluated dietary patterns and physical activity levels in children with different PKU phenotypes compared to healthy controls. Eighty‐two children were recruited (22 classic PKU
