Essential thrombocythemia is very rare during childhood. The pseudo-electrolyte imbalances including hyperkalemia and hypercalcemia have been reported among adult patients with this condition. Due to the rarity of this condition in the pediatric age group, overtreatment and even hospitalization of these patients for correction of electrolyte imbalances is usually inevitable. Herein, we reviewed...
Results In the above-mentioned time span 116 children, 0-3 years old, were enrolled. A total of 103 children recruited were available for analysis. In the study group (n=53) compared with the control group (n=50), there was no significant difference in serum sodium, potassium and chloride level (p > 0.05), on days 1, 2, and 3. Similarly, there was no significant difference between the concentra...
Hyponatremia is the most common, clinically-significant electrolyte abnormality seen in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Controversy continues to exist regarding both the cause and treatment of hyponatremia in this patient population. Lack of timely diagnosis and/or providing inadequate or inappropriate treatment can increase the risk of morbidity and mortality. We review recen...
Hypomagnesemia is often associated with coexisting electrolyte abnormalities like hypokalemia and hypocalcemia. Hypocalcemia has been shown to be secondary to hypoparathyroidism induced by hypomagnesemia. Here, we discuss a case of a patient with severe hypomagnesemia and associated hypocalcemia. A 38-year-old lady was admitted to the hospital for weakness of lower extremities and an eventual f...
Hyponatremia is an electrolyte imbalance encountered commonly in the hospital and ambulatory settings. It can be seen in isolation or present as a complication of other medical conditions. It is therefore a challenge to determine the appropriate therapeutic intervention. An understanding of the etiology is key in instituting the right treatment. Clinicians must not be too hasty to correct a ran...
Hyponatraemia is the commonest electrolyte abnormality found in hospital inpatients, and is associated with a greatly increased morbidity and mortality. The syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) is the most frequent cause of hyponatraemia in hospital inpatients. SIADH is the clinical and biochemical manifestation of a wide range of disease processes, and every case warrants inv...
OBJECTIVE To identify perceived and unperceived educational needs of residents to organize a seminar series in clinical pharmacology. METHOD All pediatric residents (48) and all attending general pediatric staff (20) were sent structured questionnaires with potential seminar topics. Data from previous pharmacy chart audits and complaints lodged with patient care representatives were analyzed ...
The American Physiological Society officially recognized the area of research in Water and Electrolyte Homeostasis (WEH) over 30 years ago when the Section of WEH was established. This minireview illuminates the importance of WEH research to the physiology community. By the narrowest definition, WEH research studies the regulation of body fluids; however, this research area is much broader and ...
OBJECTIVE Personality dispositions may influence perceptions of work stress. The paper examines the relationship between temperament in terms of Strelau’s Regulative Theory of Temperament and the effort-reward imbalance and its components. MATERIAL AND METHODS There were 890 participants (360 men) aged 37.9 years on average. Temperament traits of briskness and perseveration (temporal characte...
Adrenal crises (ACs) sometimes progress rapidly and can be fatal. The aims of the present study were to reveal whether stress doses of glucocorticoids (SDGs) can prevent progression of severe ACs and to suggest a method of prevention, through analysis of its clinical features. We studied 24 severe ACs (nine patients) that occurred after diagnosis of primary or secondary adrenal insufficiency, r...
