Summary

Citrin deficiency is a rare, underdiagnosed condition that affects the liver and metabolism. There is no cure, and patients manage symptoms with lifelong diet changes. This study analyzes blood samples from 100 patients to find biomarkers that could help track disease severity and measure how well treatments work.
