Rational: Collagenous gastritis (CG) is rarely encountered in clinical practice. Here, we reported a case of CG with iron-deficiency anemia as the main symptom.
Patient Concerns: The patient was a 26-year-old woman who sought medical advice with a chief complaint of recurrent upper abdominal distention and anemia since the last 3 years.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) refers to a sudden loss of renal function. This study was performed to identify the key RNAs acting in the mechanism of sepsis-induced AKI. Microarray dataset GSE94717 (including six sepsis-induced AKI samples and three control samples) was downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus database.
