Some patients had extremely high <i>IFI27</i> levels, similar to those seen in patients with primary interferonopathies. A statistically significant correlation was observed between elevated <i>IFI27</i> gene expression and PMD, but not between <i>IFI27</i> and secondary mitochondrial dysfunction, suggesting that ISG upregulation is a biomarker of PMD. In some patients with PMD, ISG abnormalities persisted on repeat measurement over several years, indicative of ongoing chronic inflammation.
