results during the period from jan 2000 to dec 2011, at our center, 19 children less than eighteen years of age underwent urinary diversion with yang-monti’s catheterizable stoma. the indications for urinary diversion was neuropathic bladder in eight, exstrophy bladder in seven , valve bladder syndrome in three and persistent urethral stricture in one. none of the children found cic difficult d...

conclusions our study shows a relationship between cimt and renal parameters, including egfr and albuminuria. this study confirms the importance of intensive examinations for early detection of atherosclerosis and treatment of risk factors. patients and methods this cross-sectional study was included 205 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (t2dm). we recorded clinical and biochemical data su...

the use of bovine amnion in the urinary tract for reconstructive purposes following ablative surgery in cases of trauma, cancer or infection is now a common practice in urological surgery. to evaluate urinary bladder reconstruction with bovine amniotic membrane (bam), ten healthy mongrel dogs of either sex weighing 10-40 kg were used. the animals were randomly divided into two groups of five an...

INTRODUCTION Prompt diagnosis and localization of pyelonephritis are of great importance in children. The urinary excretion of enzymes, and in particular N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG), is considered a simple noninvasive marker for detection of renal tubular dysfunction due to pyelonephritis. This study was performed to determine the diagnostic value of urinary NAG in acute pyelonephriti...

The Cape porcupine Hystrix africaeaustralis is a large (11-18 kg), nocturnal, burrowing and group-living rodent. It experiences a metabolic response to seasonal acclimatization and is a hind gut fermenter. Changes in the urinary electrolyte and free urinary catecholamine concentrations of Cape porcupines were related to combined changes of ambient temperature and photoperiod regime. Three group...

BACKGROUND No population-based studies have examined the degree to which practice parameters are followed for urinary tract infections in infants. OBJECTIVE To describe the medical care of children in their first year of life after a first urinary tract infection. METHODS Using Washington State Medicaid data, we conducted a retrospective cohort study of children with a urinary tract infecti...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical usefulness of urinary N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) excretion for the detection of early tubular damage in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). SUBJECTS AND METHODS Thirty six patients with T2DM were divided into two groups based on urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR): normoalbuminuria (ACR <30 mg/g; n=19) and microalbuminuria (ACR =30-300 mg/g; n=...

Background: Urinary tract infection is a common disease in childhood. The aim of this study was to determine the diagnostic performance of urinary analysis, assess the role of urine culture in determining its necessity and evaluate etiologic agents and antimicrobial resistance patterns in children with urinary tract infection.Methods: Our study was made by evaluating the patients who applied to...

— Various model parameter calculation equations of RF CMOS inductors are compared. The calculation equations are using as variables either Y, Z-parameters or S-parameters. Results are based on on-wafer RF S-parameter measurements of a 3.75 turn spiral inductor fabricated in AMIS 0.7 μm CMOS DM1P n-well technology. Results obtained with calculation equations for a differentially driven inductor ...
