We report two brothers with mild intellectual deficiency, exercise intolerance, rhabdomyolysis, seizures and no hemolysis. Phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) activity was strongly decreased in their red blood cells. Subsequent molecular analysis of PGK1 revealed hemizygosity for a novel mutation c.756 +
BACKGROUND
GLUT1 (glucose transporter 1) deficiency syndrome is a well-known presentation in pediatric practice. Very rare mutations not only disable carbohydrate transport but also cause the red cell membrane to be constitutively permeant to monovalent cations, namely sodium and
Differential diagnosis between thrombotic microangiopathies in pregnancy is challenging due to overlapping clinical and pathological findings and the rapid progression of disease. We present here an unusual case of Haemolysis, Elevated Liver enzymes and Low Platelets (HELLP) syndrome, which
Severe pregnancy-induced hypertension complicated by hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes and low platelets (HELLP) is considered an indication for immediate delivery, often resulting in premature or even previable infants. In five cases, temporary reversal of the HELLP syndrome was achieved using
A 45-year-old white man was hospitalized with gross hematuria, one month after cystoscopy and biopsy for the same complaint. The biopsy revealed cystitis glandularis. One day after admission, he developed seizures and died within hours. Autopsy, laboratory tests, and further questioning of the
Eisenmenger's syndrome is characterized by a right-to-left or bidirectional shunt in congenital heart diseases. Hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes and low platelet count (HELLP) syndrome, commonly occurring during pregnancy, includes hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes and low platelet counts. HELLP
We describe a 26-year-old female patient, who had attempted suicide with Endosulfan, and who presented to the Emergency Department with status epilepticus. She subsequently developed hypotension refractory to inotropes, intravascular hemolysis, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), metabolic
A 53-year-old African-American man with relapsed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma developed seizures and respiratory arrest 2 hours after an infusion of high-dose etoposide in preparation for an autologous bone marrow transplant. Laboratory tests revealed both rapid hemolysis and severe metabolic acidosis.
Severe preeclampsia is a pathophysiological disorder specific to pregnancy and characterized by vasoconstriction and hypercoagulability. Eclampsia (convulsion associated with preeclampsia) and hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelet count associated with preeclampsia (HELLP syndrome) are
BACKGROUND
The HELLP syndrome (haemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low-platelet count) occurs in about 0.5 to 0.9% of all pregnancies. With occurrence of thrombocytopaenia, it signals for several potentially lethal conditions such as complete or partial HELLP syndrome, thrombotic
2'-Deoxycoformycin (dCF), a tight-binding inhibitor of adenosine deaminase, has recently been entered into clinical trials. Toxicity has included lymphopenia, seizures, coma, conjunctivitis, renal failure, and hemolysis. Mice treated with dCF on a variety of schedules exhibited massive hemolysis.
OBJECTIVE
the purpose was to describe the outcomes and characteristics of the obstetric patients with concurrent eclampsia and hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelets syndrome (HELLP) syndrome.
METHODS
we retrospectively collected the materials between December 1999 and December 2008 in
Mammalian plasma contains a high-affinity actin-binding protein, plasma gelsolin, that severs actin filaments. Destruction of erythrocytes could result in the release of erythrocyte cytoskeletal actin into the plasma where it could bind to gelsolin. If the clearance of actin-gelsolin complexes
A study was undertaken of 27 patients with severe preeclampsia who had hemolysis, liver enzyme elevation, and thrombocytopenia as described by Weinstein. In addition to this triad, all patients exhibited the symptoms and signs of pregnancy-induced hypertension by which the diagnosis is usually
