Schimke Immuno-osseous Dysplasia: A Case Report.

Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia (SIOD) is a rare inherited disease characterized by steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome, spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, and T-cell immunodeficiency. Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is the most frequent renal pathological finding associated with proteinuria in SIOD. In this case report, we describe a 4.

Early Onset Cerebral Infarction in Schimke Immuno-Osseous Dysplasia.

Schimke Immuno-osseous Dysplasia (SIOD) is a rare autosomal recessive disease caused by a biallelic mutation in SMARCAL1 gene. Typical findings in SIOD include spondylo-epiphyseal dysplasia, steroid resistance nephrotic syndrome, progressive renal failure, T-cell immunodeficiency, bone marrow failure, and cerebral infarction. In this case report, we describe a 9-yr-old girl who presented with failure to thrive in infancy.

The effect of zinc on healing of renal damage in rats.

Materials And Methods: Forty healthy female rats were selected and one of their kidneys was incised.

A Simple Method for Closure of Urethrocutaneous Fistula after Tubularized Incised Plate Repair: Preliminary Results.

Background: Urethrocutaneous fistula (UCF) is the most prevalent complication after hypospadias repair surgery. Many methods have been developed for UCF correction, and the best technique for UCF repair is determined based on the size, location, and number of fistulas, as well as the status of the surrounding skin.

Objectives: In this study, we introduced and evaluated a simple method for UCF correction after tubularized incised plate (TIP) repair.

Autoantibodies in a Three-Year-Old Girl with Visceral Leishmaniasis: A Potential Diagnostic Pitfall.

Visceral leishmaniasis (VL), a life-threatening parasitic infection, is endemic in the Mediterranean region. Diagnosis of VL is based on epidemiologic, clinical, and laboratory findings. However, sometimes, clinical features and laboratory findings overlap with those of autoimmune diseases.

A randomized comparison of vitamin B6 and dimenhydrinate in the treatment of nausea and vomiting in early pregnancy.
