Long-term prognostic factors and outcomes in mitochondrial encephalomyopathy with lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes: a clinical and biochemical marker analysis
Our study found that the majority of patients with MELAS had poor clinical outcomes. Anemia and significantly increased lactate levels were identified as indicators of poor prognosis in MELAS. Early intervention may lead to improvements in clinical outcomes.
