3 Nov 2023
Abstract excerpt
Introduction: Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) is the second most common cause of end-stage kidney disease in children, mostly associated with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). Advances in genomic science have enabled the identification of causative variants in 20-30% of SRNS patients. Methods: We used whole exome sequencing to explore the genetic causes of SRNS in children. Totally, 101...
