OBJECTIVE: To analyze 70 individuals who were found to have the Mediterranean fever
(MEFV) gene for the presence of definite familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) and to assess if …

OBJECTIVE: Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disease with
diverse clinical presentation. The FMF gene (MEFV) has recently been cloned and 30 point …

disease due to mutations in MEFV. Descriptions of disease manifestations among patients …

Objective Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disease that
primarily affects non-Ashkenazi Jews, Armenians, Arabs, and Turks. The FMF (MEFV) gene …

Abstract Objective Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal‐recessive disorder
that is common in Armenian, Turkish, Arab, and Sephardic Jewish populations. Its clinical …

Objective To define the molecular basis of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) in patients
with only 1 mutation in the MEFV gene. Methods Genetic analysis was performed in 20 FMF …

Objectives FMF is the most common periodic fever syndrome, characterized by recurrent
episodes of fever and serosal inflammation accompanied with high acute phase reactants …

Objectives. To describe the clinical manifestations of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) in
91 patients from 47 families and provide data from the genetic study. Patients and methods …

OBJECTIVE To describe the role of molecular analysis in the diagnosis of an unusual
presentation of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF). CASE REPORT Two patients presenting …

We now have recommendations for assessing genetic analysis of the MEFV gene and how
to reliably classify a patient as FMF. We await further data to understand the contributing …
