background nephrotoxicity is characterized and scored by many parameters such as vacuolization, dilatation, hyaline cast, debris or degeneration in injured renal tissue. in this short report, we attempt to find, the most correlated parameters with kidney tissue pathology damage score (pds) in cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. method a total of 207 normal and toxic rats’ kidney tissue (induced b...

Hyaline cells are non-sensory epithelial cells of the vibrating part of the basilar membrane of chicks; they receive an extensive efferent innervation. Although these anatomical features suggest roles in auditory transduction, very little is known about the function of these cells. One possible way to understand function is by lesion experiments. We used synapsin-specific antibodies to study ch...

PURPOSE To investigate the prevalence of scleral hyaline plaque among older adults in the city of Niterói in southeastern Brazil. A second goal was to assess the correlation between scleral hyaline plaque and several age-related diseases, including eye diseases and systemic diseases. METHODS The study sample comprised 667 participants who were followed for 15 months. The study had a prospecti...

Representative portions of lung from 17 newborn infants with hyaline membrane disease were studied. The consistent findings in the hyaline membranes of Schiff's positivity requiring periodic acid pretreatment, their autofluorescence between 350 and 400 nm, and the granular ultrastructure of the membrane matrix provided morphologic evidence for lipid peroxidation's having occurred in association...

We present a case of pulmonary hyalinizing granuloma (PHG). On light microscopy, the pulmonary nodular lesions consisted of extracellular, eosinophilic hyaline lamellae. Histochemical stains of the hyaline lamellae for amyloid were focally positive and the diagnosis of amyloidosis was seriously considered; however, on electron microscopic examination, the hyaline lamellae consisted of electrond...

INTRODUCTION Juvenile hyaline fibromatosis and infantile systemic hyalinosis are variants of the same autosomal recessive syndrome; hyaline fibromatosis syndrome, characterized by papulonodular skin lesions, gingival hypertrophy, flexion contractures of joints, osteolytic bone lesions and stunted growth. Infantile systemic hyalinosis is distinguished from juvenile hyaline fibromatosis by its mo...

The morphology, incidence and distribution of hyaline cells in ten cases each of pleomorphic adenoma, adenoid cystic carcinoma, adenocarcinoma and mucoepidermoid tumour were studied by conventional light microscopy. Results showed that the hyaline cells were identified in 60% of pleomorphic adenoma and in 20% of mucoepidermoid tumours, but were absent in adenoid cystic carcinoma and adenocarcin...

Juvenile hyaline fibromatosis (JHF) is a rare, progressive autosomal recessive disease that's characterized by papulonodular skin lesions, soft tissue masses, joint contractures, gingival hypertrophy and osteolytic bone lesions. We present here the case of a 2-yr-old boy with JHF along with a review of the relevant literature. This case demonstrates that JHF should be considered in the differen...

Juvenile byaline fibromatosis is a rare connective tissue disorder, characterized by skin tumours, gingival hypertrophy and flexion contractures of the acral joints. Other associations include stunted growth, osteolytic changes and muscle weakness. The mental development is normal. Juvenile hyaline fibromatosis probably has an autosomal recessive inheritance, characterized by increased synthesi...
