Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Several genome-wide association studies revealed that several variants of UMOD gene were related to the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), CKD or hypertension. In this study, we investigated the association between a common variant rs13333226 in the promoter region of UMOD gene and end stage renal disease (ESRD). METHODS: Variant rs13333226 of UMOD gene was genotyped by using the ABI Real...
