Methods: We reviewed 48 children with lupus nephritis. Clinical and epidemiological features were studied. The patients’ outcomes and related factors were analyzed. Patient and renal survival rate were ca...
متن کاملTracking of Tubular Molecules for Scientific Applications
In this paper, we present a system for detection and tracking of tubular molecules in images. The automatic detection and characterization of the shape, location, and motion of these molecules can enable new laboratory protocols in several scientific disciplines. The uniqueness of the proposed system is twofold: At the macro level, the novelty of the system lies in the integration of object loc...
متن کاملType 4 renal tubular acidosis in a patient with lupus nephritis.
Although renal tubular acidosis (RTA) is a rare complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), type 4 RTA associated with lupus nephritis is extremely rare. A 20-year-old woman presented with malaise and edema in the lower extremities and face. She had multiple lymphadenopathies. There were 20% eosinophil in blood smear and 32% in bone marrow aspiration. Serology revealed positive antinucl...
متن کاملAcute Tubular Necrosis and Interstitial Nephritis during Pemetrexed Therapy
We report a patient with unknown primary undifferentiated carcinoma who developed acute renal failure associated with interstitial fibrosis following pemetrexed therapy. Despite drug withdrawal, renal function remained altered and the patient experienced chronic renal insufficiency. Pemetrexed disodium (Alimta) is a multitargeted antifolate agent approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FD...
متن کاملRenal biopsy and the prognosis of lupus nephritis.
At one time the prognosis of lupus nephritis was reported to be dire, with a 2-year survival of under 10 per cent [1]. This outlook was transformed by the advent of renal replacement therapy and effective immunosuppressive treatment for systemic lupus erythematosus. As a result, concern has focussed on whether patients who are at greatest risk of developing progressive renal failure may be iden...
