    In 2016, 12 (out of the 13) parents of children born using cytoplasmic transfer at the Saint Barnabas Center participated in a limited follow-up inquiry via online questionnaire. Children whose ages then were 13–18 reported no major problems. [16] In 2009, a team in Japan published studies of mitochondrial donation. [17]
