NCT ID NCT04198987
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether taking simple sugars as a daily supplement can improve health in children with congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG), a rare genetic condition. Twenty participants took the supplement while researchers tracked growth, blood sugar, liver function, and other health markers. The goal was to see if this easy approach could help manage the disease.
