Long-term longitudinal evaluation of the sele s128r polymorphism and serum E-selectin levels in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease

Key takeaways

This study followed people with polycystic kidney disease, an inherited disease that fills the kidneys with fluid sacs called cysts. It tracked a gene variant called SELE S128R and a blood marker of blood vessel stress called E-selectin, to see if either one predicts how fast the kidneys fail. It is an observational study, so it can show a link, not proof that the gene or the marker causes faster decline. The abstract was not available, so the number of people and the length of follow-up are not known here.
