5 patients with "cognitive impairment" in their 30s-50s, one male "had mild cognitive decline in the fifth decade".

Biallelic POLG A467T variants: The 18-year-old patient is the elder son of nonconsanguineous parents, aged 45 and 41 years. The clinical features of myoclonus, seizure, axonal sensory ataxic neuropathy, and hepatotoxicity induced by valproate and mild cognitive decline and cardiomyopathy were indicative of a multisystem disorder and suggestive of mitochondrial disease.

PMID: 16638794
We studied 26 patients belonging to 20 families with a disorder caused by biallelic mutations in the POLG gene. Mild cognitive abnormalities were clinically suspected in eight patients. In four a mild cognitive impairment was confirmed by neuropsychological examination.
