Previous studies showed little relationship between mitochondrial genetics and disease manifestation. Relationship between genotype and disease manifestation with patient reported quality of life and other patient reported outcomes is still unexplored %K Mitochondrial disease %K m.3243A£¿>£¿G mutation %K Quality of life %K Patient reported outcomes %K Fatigue %K Mental health %K Participation %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4797235/
