Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a rare but severe complication of SARS-CoV-2 infection, characterized by systemic hyperinflammation. Evidence indicates innate immunity defects may predispose children to MIS-C. Host genetics may influence MIS-C susceptibility and severity, but underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. The aim of this study was to identify rare...
