615963 | OMIM | Vesicoureteral reflux 8 (VUR8) | A disease belonging to the group of congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract. It is characterized by the reflux of urine from the bladder into the ureters and sometimes into the kidneys, and is a risk factor for urinary tract infections. Primary disease results from a developmental defect of the ureterovesical junction. In combination with intrarenal reflux, the resulting inflammatory reaction may result in renal injury or scarring, also called reflux nephropathy. Extensive renal scarring impairs renal function and may predispose patients to hypertension, proteinuria, renal insufficiency and end-stage renal disease. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
606408 | OMIM | Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, classic-like (EDSCLL) | A form of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, a group of connective tissue disorders characterized by skin hyperextensibility, articular hypermobility, and tissue fragility. EDSCLL patients lack atrophic scars, a major diagnostic criteria for classic Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Delayed wound healing is only present in a subset of patients. EDSCLL inheritance is autosomal recessive. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
