Pitfalls in diagnosing mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy.

abstract：:As more states adopt expanded newborn screening for metabolic disorders, the overall number of false positives increases. False-positive screening results have been associated with increased anxiety and stress in parents of infants who require follow-up testing, even after the infant's good health is confirmed. This a...
