1 BACKGROUND: Although the blood lactate-to-pyruvate (L:P) molar ratio is used to distinguish between pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency (PDH-D) and other causes of congenital lactic acidosis (CLA), its diagnostic accuracy for differentiating between these 2 types of CLA has not been evaluated formally. Lactic Acid pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase catalytic subunit 1 Homo sapiens
2 We observed a strong positive association between L:P ratio and blood lactate in non-PDH CLA, whereas this association was weak in PDH-D CLA. Lactic Acid pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase catalytic subunit 1 Homo sapiens
3 We observed a strong positive association between L:P ratio and blood lactate in non-PDH CLA, whereas this association was weak in PDH-D CLA. Lactic Acid pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase catalytic subunit 1 Homo sapiens
