Popis: | Background: Congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) are a common cause of end-stage renal disease in children. While certain nephrogenic genes have been incriminated in these malformations, data to identify the frequency of gene polymorphisms in Asian Indian children with CAKUT are scarce. This study was done to identify the effect of polymorphisms in paired-box gene 2 (PAX2), bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-4, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), and angiotensin II receptor Type 2 (AGTR2) nephrogenic genes on the development of CAKUT. Materials and Methods: In this prospective cohort study, 158 children |
