Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: - OCTN2 deficiency, confirmed by reduced carnitine transporter activity in cultured fibroblasts and/or mutations in the SLC22A5 gene. - Subject referred to academic centre for OCTN2 deficiency because of low carnitine level in NBS. - Mother analysed in academic centre for OCTN2 deficiency due to low carnitine level in infant’s NBS

Exclusion criteria: No eligible subjects will be excluded from this study

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
- Clinical data; Medical history, perinatal data, family history, education and occupation, diet, current clinical state, physical examination. - Biochemical data; Laboratory assays performed in the context of (diagnosing) OCTN2 deficiency, eg acylcarinitine profile, OCTN2 transporter activity, gene analysis, glucose level, CK level. - Additional tests; All additional tests performed in the context of evaluation of OCTN2 deficiency, eg electrocardiogram, cardiac ultrasound, imaging.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of novel functional assay, measuring OCTN2 transporter activity in cultured skin fibroblasts and lymphocytes.
