🧬 Wonderful presentation by @torra_roser on the Alport spectrum and risk! • Disease severity varies widely across COL4A genotypes • Risk varies substantially by genotype Early recognition allows timely treatment to slow progression #AlportWorkshop #AlportSyndrome

🧬After years caring for people with #AlportSyndrome, meetings like the International Alport Workshop remind me why research matters. 📚We learn, connect, share experiences and return home with something even more: hope for new treatments and a better future for our patients.

Mónica @m_furlano, nefróloga de la Fundació Puigvert experta en enfermedades renales hereditarias, explica por qué es importante para especialistas en nefrología de hoy en día actualizarse en esta área. Durante el próximo curso de Nefrología "Update on Genetic Kidney Diseases" organizado por la Fundació, la Dra. Furlano, pondrá el foco en cómo vencer el #sesgodegénero en el diagnóstico, tratamiento y acompañamiento de pacientes con la más común de las enfermedades renales hereditarias: la Poliquistosis Renal Autosómica Dominante o #PQRAD. ➕Info: fundaciopuigvert.org/feature… #29NefroPuigvert #Nefrología #Nephrology #Healthcare #MedicalTraining
