This study aims to investigate the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) and the relationship between serum uric acid (SUA) concentrations and MetS status by sex in patients with FMF.This cross-sectional study OBJECTIVE
To assess clinical efficacy of mineral water and perindopril in convalescents after hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in outpatient setting.
METHODS
The study covered 113 HFRS convalescents. HFRS was confirmed serologically. The patients were divided into three groups: group 1
METHODS
A 67-years-old man suffered from relapsing moderate fever and back pain after arthroscopy of the knee under peridural anaesthesia. Antibiotics given for suspected iatrogenic infection was started, but was without improvement. After 4 months under several antibiotic regimes his condition
Laboratory and functional tests were made in 50 convalescents who had suffered hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS). It is shown that nephropathy in such patients runs with a decline in renal functional reserve indicative of intraglomerular hypertension, impaired ability of the kidneys for
OBJECTIVE
To analyze the utility of chemolysis and the double-J ureteral catheter in patients with uric acid calculi.
METHODS
The study comprised 30 patients (28 men and 2 women) treated with chemolysis for uric acid calculi and who consulted for renal colic. The indication for placement of a
The rise of temperature following typhoid vaccination is accompanied by a marked increase in the output of total nitrogen, creatinin, and especially of uric acid. The reaction to tuberculin is slower, but is also accompanied by an increased output of nitrogenous substances, that is, however, less
Intravenous pyelography (IVP), retrograde ureteral catheterization and percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) have been used to locate radiolucent stones during ESWL in an X-ray localization system lithotripter. We also used an alternative method combining PCN, ESWL and chemolysis to treat 8 obstructive
We used a modified chemolytic solution by combining 0.1 M THAM (tris[hydroxymethyl] aminomethane) with 0.02% chlorhexidine to treat 10 obstructive uric acid stone patients. A total of 23 local chemolysis sessions were performed. Five patients received 13 sessions (average: 2.6) as an adjuvant
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate renal function, persistence of renal dysfunction and probability of chronic renal pathology in convalescents of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS).
METHODS
A total of 370 HFRS convalescents were examined with estimation of renal functional reserve, albuminuria, uric
Malaria is characterized by cyclical fevers and high levels of inflammation, and while an early inflammatory response contributes to parasite clearance, excessive and persistent inflammation can lead to severe forms of the disease. Here, we show that Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes
A 61-year-old man was referred to our hospital due to a 3-month history of fever of unknown origin, and with right knee and ankle joint pains. At another hospital, extensive investigations had produced negative results, including multiple sterile cultures of blood and joint fluids, and negative
Concentrations of uric acid (UA) in the blood, saliva, circadian urine and serum xanthinoxidase activity were studied in 150 rheumatic fever patients during acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) therapy. UA concentrations were also studied in the organs (myocardium, mitral cusp, liver and kidneys) of the dead.
A 5-year-old boy presented with fever, headache, fatigue, neck stiffness, and 2 episodes of nocturnal urinary incontinence, prompting a visit to the emergency department. He had experienced intermittent frontal headaches and leg and buttock pain for several months, which had worsened over the
