Venous Thromboembolism in Kidney Diseases and Genetic Predisposition
Background: Many renal diseases have been associated with profound clinical effects on thrombosis. To our knowledge, patients with nephrotic syndrome (NS) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) display an elevated risk of vein thrombosis, which is among the ...

Beyond polycystic kidney disease [PDF]
Tuberous sclerosis(TS) is an autosomal dominant disease caused by mutations inTSC1andTSC2genes.TSC2gene is located in chromosome 16p13.3, adjacent toPKD1gene, responsible for the autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. In a rare subgroup of patients, the presence of a deletion which simultaneously affects theTSC2andPKD1genes has been confirmed ...
