Evaluation of Antioxidant Activity and Histopathological Changes Occurred by the Oral Ingestion of CuO Nanoparticles in Monosodium Urate Crystal-Induced Hyperuricemic BALB/c Mice.

Nanotechnology is an intensive branch of science due to the unique features of nano range particles (1-100 nm). Their nano size results in a high surface area of absorption when orally administered. Monosodium urate crystal excessive deposition causes a commonly known inflammatory disease called gout into the synovial joints.

Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma - Rare Presentation Of Childhood Chronic Respiratory Symptoms In 10 Years Old Girl.

Mucoepidermoid carcinoma is the rarest presentation in children arising from bronchial glands with low potential for malignancy as most of children have history of recurrent chest infections. We present the case of ten years old girl presenting with history of recurrent respiratory infections in past admitted for fever, cough and respiratory distress. HRCT showed soft tissue in lumen of trachea at level of carina extending into right main bronchus along with collapse of apical segment of right upper lobe and right middle and lower lobes collapse consolidation.

Effect of Endoxylanase and Iron Oxide Nanoparticles on Performance and Histopathological Features in Broilers.

Endoxylanase enzyme is used as poultry feed additive to degrade anti-nutritional factors like non-starch polysaccharides. Moreover, iron is one of the most important trace elements, and its deficiency can lead to various pathological conditions and stunted growth. In the current study, a combination of xylanase and iron nanoparticles is used to assess the overall effect on poultry growth.

Childhood Idiopathic Steroid Resistant Nephrotic Syndrome, Different Drugs And Outcome.

Background: The management of steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) is quite difficult in paediatric patients. Not only the remission is difficult but also these patients are at risk of progression to end stage renal disease (ESRD). The goal of treatment is either to achieve complete remission or even partial remission as it is the most important predictor of disease outcome.

TACROLIMUS DRUG LEVEL AND RESPONSE TO TREATMENT IN IDIOPATHIC CHILDHOOD STEROID RESISTANT NEPHROTIC SYNDROME.

Background: The management of Steroid Resistant Nephrotic Syndrome (SRNS) is an uphill task for paediatric nephrologists as immunosuppressive agents are the mainstay of treatment in these patients. Tacrolimus is used along with steroids. This study is conducted to see the relationship between the tacrolimus dose, drug level and response in the management of SRNS.

HISTOPATHOLOGICAL PATTERNS IN PAEDIATRIC IDIOPATHIC STEROID RESISTANT NEPHROTIC SYNDROME.

Background: Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) is a common problem but difficult to treat for pediatric nephrologists. Due to paucity of studies done in few centres in southern Pakistan regarding the histopathological aspects in paediatric patients with SRNS, this study was conducted to determine the histopathological spectrum in children with SRNS at our centre.
