SLC19A3 and Dystonia: Dystonia was the second most common sign after encephalopathy. The BFMDS questionnaire was administered to 34 SLC19A3 patients with dystonia (9.8 ± 1.6 points [mean 6 SEM]; range, 0–30).

A positive, and almost significant, correlation was observed between the BFMDS scores and the time from disease onset to thiamine initiation
