| 1 | TGF-beta1 gene expression was noted in 23 of 29 steroid resistant (SR) children with NS not caused by lupus nephritis and in 18 of 20 FSGS patients. | Steroids | transforming growth factor beta 1 | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | In contrast TGF-beta1 gene expression was detected in only 3 of 14 steroid-sensitive patients (P < 0.001). | Steroids | transforming growth factor beta 1 | Homo sapiens |
| 3 | In patients with steroid-resistant NS, intrarenal TGF-beta1 gene expression showed a positive predictive value of 90% and a negative predictive value of 88% to identify FSGS (P < 0.0001). | Steroids | transforming growth factor beta 1 | Homo sapiens |
