Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Antenatal Bartter syndrome is a life-threatening disease caused by a mutation in the MAGED2 gene located on chromosome Xp11. It is characterized by severe polyhydramnios and extreme prematurity. While most reported mutations are located in the exon region, variations in the intron region are rarely reported. METHODS: In our study, we employed whole exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing to genotype...
