Kimura’s disease (KD) is a chronic inflammatory disorder primarily seen in male Asians during the second and third decades of life. Clinically, it presents as solitary or multiple subcutaneous nodules, predominantly in the head and neck region, typically in the pre auricular region, forehead, and scalp. The etiology of Kimura disease is still unknown. This disorder should be suspected when the ...

      Kawasaki disease (KD) is characterized as the leading cause of acquired cardiac disease in children. Accurate and timely diagnosis of KD is of high importance for preventing its cardiac complications. However, diagnosis merely based on clinical findings has a number of challenges and, limitations. Therefore, researchers are investigating to find more object...

Abstract Ketogenic diets (KD) have become popular diet to lose weight. However, the effect of such on brain function has not yet been clarified. Thus, we aimed study effects KD neurogenesis and apoptosis in dentate gyrus by assessing expression Ki-67 Caspase-3. Rats ( n = 24) were divided into four groups: control (normal diet), ketogenic (KD), time-restricted (TRD), combination high-fat (CD) g...

OBJECTIVE Delayed diagnosis of Kawasaki disease (KD) may lead to serious cardiac complications. We sought to create and test the performance of a natural language processing (NLP) tool, the KD-NLP, in the identification of emergency department (ED) patients for whom the diagnosis of KD should be considered. METHODS We developed an NLP tool that recognizes the KD diagnostic criteria based on s...

BACKGROUND Kawasaki Disease (KD) is the most common cause of acquired heart disease in children in developed nations. The KD etiologic agent is unknown but likely to be a ubiquitous microbe that usually causes asymptomatic childhood infection, resulting in KD only in genetically susceptible individuals. KD synthetic antibodies made from prevalent IgA gene sequences in KD arterial tissue detect ...

Abstract Background In 2017, it was recognized that there significant variation in the management and follow-up of Kawasaki disease (KD) at our institution, resulting inefficient use hospital resources patient confusion. A multidisciplinary team from cardiology, rheumatology, emergency medicine, infectious diseases (ID), general paediatrics created a standardized protocol distributed on October...

Kawasaki disease (KD) has complexly clinical features and laboratory parameters and there is no definitive biomarker for this disease and the therapy of KD also is complex and uncertain. In this study, 102 KD patients and 80 healthy controls were enrolled in this study and the serum microRNAs were detected by qRT-PCR. The results showed that, compared with KD patients with a good response to hi...
