Prediction of Kidney Damage in Ultrasound Compared with Dimercaptosuccinic Acid in Children with Pyelonephritis and Vesicoureteral Reflux
Background and purpose: Ultrasound is easily available, cheap, non-invasive and radiation-free that could be considered as an alternative to Dimercaptosuccinic Acid (DMSA) in evaluation of kidney damage. The aim of this study was to determine the prediction of kidney damage in ultrasound compared with DMSA (standard method) in children with pyelonephritis and vesicoureteral reflux. Materials a...
full textPrediction of Vesicoureteral Reflux in Children with First Urinary Tract Infection by Dimercaptosuccinic Acid and Ultrasonography
OBJECTIVE Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common causes of febrile pediatric diseases. Also, vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is a significant risk factor for UTI. Voiding cystourethrography (VCUG) is the method of choice for evaluation of VUR. This study was done to predict VUR by DMSA scan (technetium 99 m-labeled dimercaptosuccinic acid) and ultrasonography (US). METHODS In a p...
full textDistal Renal Tubular Acidosis with Grade 4 Vesicoureteral Reflux in a Child with Single Kidney
Introduction Renal tubular acidosis (RTA) is a non-uremic defects of urinary acidification. It is characterized by a normal anion gap hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis; plasma potassium may be normal, low or high-depending on the type of RTA. These syndromes differ from uremic acidosis which is associated with a high anion gap, decreased glomerular filtration with enhanced proton secretion b...

Acute Pyelonephritis (APN) is one of the most common bacterial infections seen in children that may lead to renal scarring. Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is an important risk factor of renal damage but not the only one. Materials and Methods: In order to determine the association between dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) scintigraphic and voiding cystourethrographic findings, a retrospective study w...

برهمکنش dnaتیموس گاوی طبیعی (ct-dna) با اتیلن دی آمین تترااستات (edta)در بافرtris-hcl با 8/7 ph ( دراین ph،edta به نمک دی سدیم تبدیل می شود) وسسامول در بافر tris-hcl با4/7 ph مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است. edta و سسامول استفاده فراوانی در تکنولوژی غذایی و صنعت شیمیایی دارند. مدل اتصال dna مربوط بهedta بوسیله اسپکتروفتومتری جذب، دورنگ نمایی حلقوی(cd)، ویسکومتری وژل الکتروفورز بررسی شده است. طیفuv ...
15 صفحه اولDoppler ultrasonography in children with acute pyelonephritis in diagnosis of renal scar compared to DMSA scintigraphy
Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most important pediatric health problems, which is occasionally associated with irreversible renal damage. Dimercapto-succinic acid (DMSA) scan is a diagnostic standard for the renal scar. Doppler ultrasonography (D.S) has been considered as a less invasive method. The purpose of this study was to determine the sensitivity and specificity ...
