Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: The presence of the deletion (D) allele in the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene has been reported as a probable genetic risk factor for idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS), but its role in determining resistance to steroid therapy remains to be evaluated. METHODS: Fifty-one patients were enrolled in the study and received oral steroids. The pattern of response to steroid therapy was...
