A letter to the editor from Hewavitharana (PMID: 20696519) listed a number of deficiencies in the reporting of the sarcosine studies. The report of Jentzmik et al was criticized for not having "used a validated analytical method to measure sarcosine in urine" and more detailed omissions in the procedure and in the reporting.
