Progress and perspectives in primary mitochondrial myopathy: Highlights from the 2025 mitochondrial medicine masterclass with a focus on TK2 deficiency.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The inaugural United Mitochondrial Disease Foundation (UMDF) Mitochondrial Medicine 2025 Masterclass focused on primary mitochondrial diseases (PMDs) especially primary mitochondrial myopathies (PMMs) and thymidine kinase 2 deficiency (TK2d). The Masterclass featured leading US experts in the field, providing the latest scientific and clinical knowledge, as well as patients and caregivers sharing their lived experience of mitochondrial diseases. In this report, we summarize the key highlights of each presentation. An overview of PMM featuring the etiologies of different PMMs and key features of notable PMMs, was followed by a presentation discussing the practical clinical processes of diagnosing PMM, how the roles of clinicians have evolved as diagnostic technology has improved, and actions clinicians can take to maximize the chances of an early, accurate diagnosis. Real-world case studies highlighted variations in disease presentation among the wide range of PMMs, which was followed by an in-depth review of clinical assessments and symptom management for PMM across organ systems. Multisystemic disorders like PMM require multidisciplinary management, in both a chronic and acute setting, and two experts discussed the practical workflow for clinicians to build a multidisciplinary model of care at their hospitals, the roles and responsibilities of the lead coordinator and each subspecialist, and practical steps that clinicians can take to manage acute care coordination and decrease acute care utilization. A hypothetical case study of TK2d (based on real patients) brought together the different aspects of PMM discussed during the Masterclass, while the patient perspective presentations allowed patients and caregivers to discuss the real-world impact that the diagnostic and care journey had on them and their families. This Educational Masterclass provided detailed knowledge of PMM designed to provide the next generation of clinicians and investigators with practical, actionable guidance and resources they could utilize to make a difference in the lives of patients with PMM.
