- Myelomeningocele (MMC) is a condition that affects many kids in developing countries like Turkey, and it can lead to kidney problems known as chronic kidney disease (CKD).
- A study in Turkey looked at children with MMC to find out how many had different stages of CKD and what factors made their kidney health worse.
