Cerebral energy metabolism in phenylketonuria: findings by quantitative In vivo 31P MR spectroscopy.

abstract：:Early childhood overweight and obesity have alarmingly increased over the years. Adulthood obesity is a well demonstrated significant independent predictor of cardiovascular risk (CVR) and/or mortality, which predisposes to the major components of metabolic syndrome (MS). Evidence of MS in obese children has been also...
