Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To assess the possible impact conferred by co-existing variants in MEditerranean FeVer (MEFV) and other genes on systemic autoinflammatory disease (SAID) phenotype. METHODS: Consecutive patients (n = 42) who underwent screening for SAIDs by next generation sequencing (NGS) targeting 26 genes, and carried at least one MEFV gene variant, were retrospectively studied. A total of 63 MEFV gene variants...
