Identification of novel variants for complicating cardiac disease in the scrub typhus infection using whole genome sequencing

CONCLUSION: We suggest that the SNPs of SLC24A2 and ADARB2 might be genetic surrogate markers for complicating cardiac diseases in the scrub typhus infection. Our study show that early detection based on individual sequence variants might be feasible to predict complicating cardiac diseases in patients with scrub typhus infection, if further studies with more participants confirm these findings.PMID:37939667 | DOI:10.3904/kjim.2023.221
