Fifty-four children diagnosed with FMF were evaluated by measuring complete blood count, ESR, CRP, serum amyloid A (SAA), Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR), lipid profile, and atherogenic indices, along with a nailfold capillaroscopic examination, both during acute attacks and attack-free periods. This evidence concerns the gene ESR1 and familial Mediterranean fever.
