Rare Genetic Variants of NLRP12 in Admixed Latino-American Children With SARS-CoV-2-Related Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome.

Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a rare, potentially fatal complication of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Genetic defects in inflammation-related pathways have been linked to MIS-C, but additional research is needed, especially in diverse ethnic groups. The present study aimed to identify genetic variants underlying MIS-C in Brazilian patients.
