title: Evaluation of cofactor responsiveness.
abstract: The response to cofactor therapy in inborn errors of metabolism may be dramatic with complete resolution of the clinical illness but more commonly the response is absent or partial. When assessing cofactor responsiveness clinical and biochemical findings as well as the natural history of the disorder must be taken into account.
