A transient inhibition of glomerular filtration and/or elevation of blood creatinine were detected in 126 of 296 patients with chronic glomerulonephritis. Some of the patients had 2-4 episodes which occurred more frequently in exacerbations (56.3% of cases), less frequently in cytostatic treatment or in sanatorium. The predominance of nephrotic syndrome and frequent recurrences or hypertension, long-term course in different causes of the disease suggests several pathogenetic variants of nephrotic syndrome. Transient deterioration of renal function does not affect survival, but its emergence in the course of cytostatic treatment or sanatorium treatment worsens the prognosis being related with sclerosis of the renal tissue.

Introduction: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), a new member of the coronavirus family. While respiratory transmission is the main route, concerns have arisen regarding possible vertical transmission, which refers to the transmission of the virus from mother to fetus through the dissemination of viral particles in the amniotic fluid. Fetal viral infection via the placenta can affect the formation of the auditory system and lead to congenital hearing disorders.

Objective: The optimal timing of bypass surgery for patients with moyamoya disease (MMD) or moyamoya syndrome (MMS) following an acute stroke episode remains unclear, mainly owing to the risk of postoperative complications. In this study, we aim to validate the safety and efficacy of early intervention using multiple burr hole (MBH) and erythropoietin (EPO) therapy, thereby refining the management strategy for patients with acute stroke episode of MMD or MMS.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed data from 70 patients with MMD or MMS who underwent MBH and EPO therapy.

In the rapid urbanization process in China, due to reasons such as employment, education, and family reunification, the number of mobile population without registered residence in the local area has increased significantly. By 2020, the group had a population of 276 million, accounting for over 20% of the total population, making significant contributions to urban economic development and resource optimization. However, the health status of migrant populations is affected by unique issues such as occupational risks and socio-economic disparities, which play an important role in personal welfare, social stability, and sustainable economic growth.
