Mitochondrial diseases show underrepresentation in African populations, affecting both genetics and diagnosis.
27,749 records were initially identified, yet only 23 studies met inclusion criteria, highlighting significant gaps.
Analysis revealed sensorineural hearing loss linked to mitochondrial DNA mutations as the most common phenotype.
The findings underscore the need for enhanced genetic testing and policy development to address mitochondrial disease challenges.
