C3 glomerulopathy in children: experience at a resource-limited center.

Background: In children, C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) is a heterogeneous disease characterized by diverse clinicopathological profiles and kidney outcomes. However, diagnostic work-up in resource-limited settings is challenging because of the unavailability of complement assays and limited access to electron microscopy or genetic testing.

Purpose: This study aimed to describe the clinicopathological features and response to immunosuppression and evaluate renal outcomes among children with C3G in a resource-limited setting.

Prevalence and predictors of sleep deprivation and poor sleep quality and their associated perinatal outcomes during the third trimester of pregnancy.

Objectives: Maternal sleep deprivation not only affects the pregnant mother but also has profound effects on the well-being of the foetus. This study aims to assess the prevalence and predictors of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and poor sleep quality (PSQ).

Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted among in-patient post-natal women of a tertiary care teaching hospital.
