UNASSIGNED
The association between hypercalciuria and febrile convulsion is controversial. The present study aimed to investigate the statistical association between hypercalciuria and childhood febrile convulsions.
UNASSIGNED
Overall, 160 children aged 6 months to 5 years, including 80 children
BACKGROUND
The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether idiopathic hypercalciuria may be implicated in the pathogenesis of febrile convulsions.
METHODS
We studied 38 children (22 boys) with febrile convulsions (mean (+/- SD) age 3.25 +/- 1.09 years) and 45 healthy children (28 boys)
Familial hypomagnesemia with hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis (FHHNC) is an autosomal recessive syndrome that affects the tight junction proteins claudin-16 and claudin-19 in the thick ascending limb. In patients with claudin-19 mutations, additional symptoms such as visual impairment and other
BACKGROUND
The cardinal characteristics of primary hypomagnesaemia-hypercalciuria-nephrocalcinosis include renal magnesium wasting, marked hypercalciuria, renal stones, nephrocalcinosis, a tendency towards chronic renal insufficiency and sometimes even ocular abnormalities or hearing
Familial hypomagnesemia and hypercalciuria with nephrocalcinosis is a rare autosomal recessive disease characterized by renal calcium and magnesium wasting, evolving in the progressive decrease of renal function, eventually requiring kidney transplant. Clinical findings include urinary infection,
Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare metabolic disease with the hallmark finding of deficient serum tissue nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP) activity. TNSALP is primarily known for its role in mineralization; hence, HPP is characterized by defective mineralization of bone and/or teeth. TNSALP is
Familial hypomagnesemia with hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis (FHHNC) is a rare autosomal recessive tubular disorder that is frequently associated with progressive renal failure. The primary defect is related to impaired tubular reabsorption of magnesium (Mg) and calcium (Ca) in the thick
Autosomal dominant hypocalcaemia with hypercalciuria (ADHH) is an intriguing syndrome, in which activating mutations of the calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) have recently been recognised. We describe a kindred with seven affected individuals across three generations, including patients affected in
Pyridoxine-responsive seizures (PRS) and the role of pyridoxine (PN, vitamin B(6)) in hypophosphatasia (HPP) are incompletely understood. Typically, PRS and HPP are rare, independent, metabolic disorders. In PRS, seizures resist standard anticonvulsants apart from PN, yet have a good prognosis. In
We report the case of a 20-year-old male Caucasian patient with diagnosed nephrocalcinosis and a medical history of seizures and recurrent urinary tract infections. Laboratory investigations revealed clinical and biochemical abnormalities characteristic of familial hypomagnesemia with hypercalciuria
BACKGROUND
Hypoparathyroidism is characterised by hypocalcaemia, and standard management is with an active vitamin D analogue and adequate oral calcium intake (dietary and/or supplements). Little is described in the literature about the impact of intercurrent illnesses on calcium homeostasis in
Objective: To study the clinical characteristics of childhood- and adolescent- onset hypoparathyroidism. Methods: The clinical data of 128 hypoparathyroidism patients with onset before the age of 18 years were collected and analyzed retrospectively. Results: The predominant features of the
BACKGROUND
Hypoparathyroidism is a rare pediatric endocrine disease, which is caused by low circulating levels of PTH or insensitivity to its action in the target tissues.
OBJECTIVE
To report the clinical and biochemical characteristics and theoutcome of 8 patients with
Objective: To study the clinical characteristics of primary hypoparathyroidism in adults. Methods: The clinical data of 200 cases with adult-onset primary hypoparathyroidism in Peking Union Medical College Hospital during December 1987 to December 2015 were collected and analyzed retrospectively.
Calcium-sensing receptor gain-of-function mutations are known to cause autosomal dominant hypocalcemia and independently an epilepsy syndrome. We report the unique case of a child with both intractable generalized epilepsy and a chronic abnormality in calcium homeostasis due to a calcium-sensing
