The rapid discovery of genes related to NS has aided in the understanding of the molecular mechanics of glomerular filtration. The goal of this study is to determine the relationship between NPHS2 and ACTN4 in PNS youngsters.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A study with 100 NS children and 100 healthy matched volunteers was conducted.
