Molecular Characterization of A Novel Mutation In The Renal NaCl Cotransporter Causing Gitelman's Syndrome By Impairing Transporter Trafficking [PDF]
Mutations affecting the sodium-chloride cotransporter (NCC) in the distal convoluted tubule of the nephron are causative of Gitelman's syndrome (GS), a rare autosomal recessive disease characterized by electrolytic alterations similar to those induced by

ABSTRACT Bartter syndrome (BS) is a rare autosomal recessive salt‐wasting tubulopathy characterized by hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis, hyperreninemia, and hyperaldosteronism without hypertension. It usually presents in childhood; however, adult‐onset cases are infrequent and often misdiagnosed.

Clinical and diagnostic features of Bartter and Gitelman syndromes [PDF]
Background: Bartter and Gitelman syndromes are autosomal recessive disorders of renal tubular salt handling. Due to their rarity, limited long-term data are available to inform prognosis and management.

Gitelman and Bartter Syndrome in a Patient With Morbid Obesity: A Case Report and Literature Review
ABSTRACT We present a case study of a 34‐year‐old man with morbid obesity and a suspected Bartter–Gitelman spectrum tubulopathy (without genetic confirmation), weighing 135 kg, and with a BMI of 42.5 kg/m2, who was referred to the metabolic and bariatric surgery department due to morbid obesity to address abnormal electrolyte levels.

Exonic Variation and Its Clinical Impact in 7221 Old Order Amish
ABSTRACT The Amish of Lancaster County, PA has been the focus of genetic studies for many years due to its demographic history and unique genetic makeup that includes a historical bottleneck event and subsequent genetic drift, resulting in a marked decrease in genetic diversity and increased frequency of some variants that have substantially shaped the
