children suffering from decreased renal function may demand unique considerations regarding special oral and dental conditions they are encountered to. it is mentioned that renal function deterioration may affect the hard or soft tissues of the mouth. having knowledge about the high prevalence of dental defects, calculus, gingival hyperplasia, modified salivary composition and tissue responses ...

We present a patient with left-sided obstructed megaureter secondary to neuropathic bladder. He was referred for technetium-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid ((99m)Tc-DMSA) renal cortical scintigraphy to evaluate renal cortical function. Images obtained 4 hr after injection showed significant activity in the dilated left ureter. When the ureter is visualized on DMSA scan, obstructive megaureter shoul...

  A male patient with acute renal failure (ARF) due to large B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma infiltration of kidney is presented. The diagnosis was suspected because of coincidence of ARF and tumor lysis syndrome non-responsive to conservative renal therapies. A renal biopsy confirmed diagnosis and appropriate chemotherapy led to complete improvement of renal function.  

A 16-year-old boy developed an immune complex illness associated with lung haemorrhage, proliferative nephritis with crescents and renal failure. Treatment with plasma exchange, haemodialysis and immunosuppressive drugs resulted in a rapid reduction in levels of immune complexes and other mediators of inflammation and was associated with good recovery of renal and lung function. Subsequently, d...

in present paper acertain convolution operator of analytic functions is defined.moreover, subordination- and superordination- preserving propertiesfor a class of analytic operators defined on the space of normalizedanalytic functions in the open unit disk is obtained. we also applythis to obtain sandwich results and generalizations of some knownresults.

in this paper, the exp-function method, with the aid of a symbolic computation system such as maple, is applied to the (2+1) -dimensional calogero bogoyavlanskii schiff equation. exact and explicit generalized solitary solutions are obtained in more general forms. the free parameters can be determined by initial or boundary conditions. the method is straightforward and concise, and its applicat...

Acute renal infarction is a serious medical emergency. The diagnosis is often delayed or missed as it is not common. Hence, the exact incidence of acute renal infarction is not known. Failure to consider renal infarction in the initial differential diagnosis results in a delay in diagnosis and treatment, which in turn leads to permanent loss of renal function. We present two cases of acute kidn...
