Genetic testing (performed in 59/60 patients, 98.3%) identified pathogenic variants in 44 patients (74.6%); NPHS2 was most prevalent (28.8%). CONCLUSIONS: SRNS/FSGS accounts for approximately 29% of paediatric CKD 5 in this cohort and is characterised by a high prevalence of monogenic variants reflecting regional consanguinity.” | 0.80 | saudi_context_rules_v1 |
