Introduction: Medical renal diseases stand as one of the major health problems in pediatric age group considering its morbidity/mortality and subsequent management plans. Objectives: In this manuscript, spectrum histopathological patterns medical nephropathic lesions Egyptian patients over duration five years is reported with clinical indications. Patients Methods: We conducted a retrospective ...

syndrome patients. Patients were diagnosed to have primary Nephrotic syndrome according to the criteria of the International Study of Kidney Disease in Children (ISKDC) 1981.The patients suffering from other diseases which may lead to oxidative stress such as diabetes, inflammatory disease, cardiac disease, hepatic impairment and respiratory diseases or other systemic disease as well as smokers...

Nephrotic syndrome is associated with a hypercoagulable state and an increased risk of thromboembolic complications. Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis is a rare complication of nephrotic syndrome, with few cases described in the literature, although the disease may be under-diagnosis. The true incidence of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis may be underestimated because many events are asymptomati...

Glycation and lipid peroxidation are spontaneous reactions believed to contribute to the pathogenesis of nephrotic syndrome. Possible interrelations of glycated hemoglobin with reduced glutathione and malondialdehyde were evaluated in nephrotic syndrome patients. Eighteen nephrotic syndrome patients and 15 healthy controls were enrolled for this study. Glycated hemoglobin, reduced glutathione, ...

Eighty-four children with steroid-responsive nephrotic syndrome who had been shown to have, or were believed to have, minimal change histology were investigated to study the relationship between steroid-responsive nephrotic syndrome and allergy. They were found to have a greater incidence of the standard atopic disorders--asthma, eczema, recurrent urticaria, and hay fever. Their 1st-degree rela...

BACKGROUND Nephrotic patients are prone to atherosclerosis in consequence of frequent exposures to hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and immunosuppressive drugs. OBJECTIVES We studied the carotid parameters as early indicators of atherosclerosis in children with nephrotic syndrome. METHODS Between 2008 and 2011, 51 children with history of nephrotic syndrome enrolled in the study. The inclusion...

Patients with nephrotic syndrome are at an increased risk for thrombotic events; deep venous thrombosis, renal vein thrombosis, and pulmonary embolism are quite common in patients with nephrotic syndrome. It is important to note that nephrotic syndrome secondary to membranous nephropathy may impose a greater thrombotic risk for unclear reasons. Increased platelet activation, enhanced red blood ...

The Nephrotic Syndrome Panel provides a high quality read-out of all clinically relevant genes associated with nephrotic syndrome. Our OS-SeqTM technology provides high coverage clinical grade sequencing and enables reliable diagnostics for patients with significantly lower costs and faster turnaround time (basic service TAT 21 days and express service TAT 7-10 days). The Nephrotic Syndrome Pan...
