The Newcastle Pediatric Mitochondrial Disease Scale: translation and cultural adaptation for use in Brazil
ABSTRACT Objective The aim of this study was to translate and adapt the Newcastle Paediatric Mitochondrial Disease Scale (NPMDS) to Portuguese for use in Brazil. Methods The scale was applied in 20 pediatric patients with mitochondrial disease, in three groups: myopathy (n = 4); Leigh syndrome (...
