Reduced systolic myocardial function in children with chronic renal insufficiency.
Increased left ventricular (LV) mass in children with chronic renal insufficiency (CRI) might be adaptive to sustain myocardial performance in the presence of increased loading conditions. It was hypothesized that in children with CRI, LV systolic function is impaired despite increased LV mass (LVM). Standard echocardiograms were obtained in 130 predialysis children who were aged 3 to 18 yr (59...
متن کاملGrowth retardation in children with chronic renal insufficiency.
The somatomedins are a family of growth hormone-dependent insulin-like peptides which have been postulated to mediate the actions of pituitary growth hormone on skeletal tissue. The somatomedin peptides are part of a larger family of growth factors. Somatomedin has been measured by bioassays, by radioreceptor assays, and recently by a radioimmunoassay. Bioassays are influenced by glucocorticoid...
متن کاملSagliker Syndrome in a Patient with Secondary Hyperparathyroidism and Chronic Renal Insufficiency: A Case Report
Sagliker syndrome is a rare form of renal osteodystrophy resulted from untreated secondary hyperparathyroidism. It is described by severe skeletal deformities, high level of PTH in patients with chronic renal failure, and deformed face. This paper reports a 44-year-old male patient with the mentioned characteristics. In addition to the unique clinical features, high levels of ALP and PTH hormon...
متن کاملSomatomedin in growth disorders and chronic renal insufficiency in children.
Somatomedin activity was measured using an embryonic chick cartilage assay in 33 normal and short normal children, 23 children with pituitary growth hormone (GH) deficiency, 14 children with sexual precocity, and 13 children with chronic renal insufficiency. In normal children somatomedin activity correlated well with chronological age: low valles in early childhood rose to higher than adult le...
متن کاملDosage schedule of gentamicin for chronic renal insufficiency in children.
Gentamicin was given to paediatric patients with chronic renal disease complicated by infections by Gram-negative organisms, in which renal function varied from normal to severely insufficient. Peak serum levels after an intramuscular dose of 1 mg/kg body weight ranged from 3.1 to 9.4 microgram/ml, which appeared adequate for therapy. The peak value was not related to the renal function of the ...
