N, no; NA, not available; Y, yes.

Control α‐AASA concentrations are <0.2 μmol/l for plasma and <1 mmol/mol creatinine for urine.

Control values for PA in urine are 0.55–24.1 mmol/mol creatinine (<6 months of age) and 0.01–1.54 mmol/mol creatinine (>6 months of age).

For PA in plasma, control values are 3.75–10.8 μmol/l (<1 week of age), and 0.7–2.46 μmol/l (>1 week of age).
