neurologic and psychologic complications are usually related to drug toxicity, infections or symptoms induced by deterioration of renal allograft function. metabolic encephalopathy, hypertensive encephalopathy, cerebrovascular events, and new-onset seizures have all been reported in organ-transplant recipients. infections can be caused by listeria, cryptococcus, nocardia, aspergillus and mucor....

Recent advances in molecular genetics in hereditary hypomagnesemia substantiated the role of a variety of genes and their encoded proteins in human magnesium transport mechanisms. This knowledge on underlying genetic defects helps to distinguish different clinical subtypes and gives first insight into molecular components involved in magnesium transport. By mutation analysis and functional prot...

Tumoral calcinosis is a rare benign condition, characterized by massive deposition of calcium salts into peri-articular soft tissues. Majority are secondary to underlying chronic disorders like renal failure. Primary Normo-phosphatemicTumoral Calcinosis entity. I hereby, report case primary normo-phosphatemictumoral in 11 years old female patient, managed complete surgical excision.

background and objective: chronic renal failure (crf) may have many effects on nervous system and manifest as headache, seizure, dialysis disequilibrium syndrome, cerebral hemorrhage, hypertensive encephalopathy, uremic neuropathy, and some neurologic complications of transplantation. in this present study we investigate neurologic disorders in children with crf. methods: in this descriptive, c...

In this review the need for early antenatal assessment of renal disease is stressed as is the need to follow-up all patients in the puerperium in whom renal dysfunction has been suspected during pregnancy. A variety of renal disorders and their effect on the outcome of pregnancy are discussed.

Hereditary kidney disorders represent significant risk for the development of end stage renal desease (ESRD). Most of them are recognized in childhood, or prenataly particularly those phenotypicaly expressed as anomalies on ultrasound examination (US) during pregnancy. They represent almost 50% of all fetal malformations detected by US (1). Furthermore many of urinary tract malformations are as...

Serum creatinine, urinary creatinine and endogenous creatinine clearance were measured in various age groups in normal subjects and in those suffering from renal disorders. Serum creatinine was found to be significantly high in cases of chronic renal failure and renal hypertension. Serum and urinary creatinine levels in normal subjects were found to vary with the age. (JPMA 31:225, 1981).

Renal diseases have emerged as a critical health problem that has significant impact on human health. One of the most prevalent kidney issues is nephrotoxicity, which happens when body exposed to medicine or toxin. As result kidneys being damaged by major factors such ischemia, hypoxia, antibiotics, chemotherapy, and NSAIDS, condition known acute renal failure can develop. Due high mortality ra...
