Methylmalonic Acid and Vitamin B12 in Patients with Heart Failure.
Vitamin B12 deficiency among patients with heart failure (HF) may have been underestimated. High serum levels of methylmalonic acid (MMA) have been identified in several studies as an early indicator of vitamin B12 deficiency. Furthermore, MMA seems to constitute a biomarker of oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction.

Background Methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder, that causes multisystem damage by accumulating toxic metabolites. These metabolites, particularly affecting nerve cells, contribute to suboptimal neurodevelopment in MMA ...

Methylmalonic acidemia is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disease. However, because of the atypical clinical symptoms, the type of late-onset methylmalonic academia is often misdiagnosed.
