EDEMA AND NEPHRITIS

The Relationships between Plasma Specific Gravity, Plasma Protein Content and Edema in Nephritis.

Remote Ischemic Preconditioning and Diabetic Macular Edema

Objective: Remote Ischemic Preconditioning (RIPC) as the transient ischemia and reperfusion of the arm is a promising method for protecting different tissue from future ischemia. These effects might be mediated through vascular and endothelial growth factor (VEGF) pathway. We investigated the influence of RIPC on diabetic macular edema (DME) as a chronic ischemic condition in patients who were ...

Hypoproteinaemia and Edema Due to Giardiasis

The present report describes a 5-years-old girl who presented with hypoproteinaemia and generalised oedema due to giardiasis.  She recovered fully 2 weeks after treatment with oral metronidazole.  The emphasis is on the importance of giardiasis in children with hypoproteinaemia of obscure aetiology.

Ischemic Brain Edema and Compression Brain Edema

Grades of recovery and outcome of patients with "stroke" have been widely reported by different authors.' There is reasonable agreement on the "poor" outcome of a certain number of surviving "stroke" patients; their number is widely estimated to vary from 19% to 35%. With the growing need for physical medicine and rehabilitation treatment and the associated mushrooming financial expenditures fo...
