We analyzed the blood cell count and serum biochemistry findings in patients demonstrating convulsion with mild gastroenteritis (CwG). As a control group, age matched patients presenting with only gastroenteritis during the same period were compared. The results showed significant differences
BACKGROUND
Rhabdomyolysis owing to status epilepticus (SE) can be life-threating, with acute kidney injury (AKI) the most serious complication; therefore, early recognition of the risk factors is important. Hyperuricemia after epileptic seizures has been reported, and severe hyperuricemia can lead
An 18-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of convulsive seizure. He had psychomotor retardation and intellectual disability from childhood, and had been diagnosed with attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder when he was 12 years old. He showed mental deficit (Wechsler Adult
Acute uric acid nephropathy has been described almost uniformly in patients with massive uric acid overload (malignancies with rapid cell destruction, epileptic seizures). Severe hyperuricosuria and intratubular uric acid precipitation result. Here we present two patients with gout, normal uric acid
Acute hyperuricemia most commonly occurs in patients who experience tumor lysis syndrome. Hyperuricemia along with other electrolyte abnormalities like hyperkalemia, hypocalcemia, and hyperphosphatemia leads to acute kidney injury (AKI) due to acute uric acid nephropathy which is associated with
OBJECTIVE
To assess the association between hyperuricemia and different neuropsychiatric manifestations and stroke risk factors in systematic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients.
METHODS
This study was conducted on 204 SLE patients who were admitted to a tertiary referral center. A standardized

A significant increase in S-urate was found postictally in 17 patients with two or more grand mal seizures within 24 h. In six patients S-urate was above the level at which hyperuricemic renal failure may develop. Impaired renal function was observed in two patients who had extremely high S-urates.
We undertook a retrospective analysis of epilepsy patients referred and treated for more than 6 months with the ketogenic diet during 1994-1999 at Connecticut Children's Medical Center. Outcome measures included antiepileptic drug number, seizure frequency, electroencephalogram background/paroxysmal
OBJECTIVE
To report a case of hemolytic anemia and methemoglobinemia developing after rasburicase administration to a patient with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency.
METHODS
A 50-year-old African American man was hospitalized with new onset seizure, diabetic ketoacidosis,
Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) is an acute, life-threatening disease among adults and children that is associated with the initiation of cytoreductive therapy in the treatment of malignancy. A pattern of metabolic derangements occurs as a result of a massive release of intracellular contents into the
This review on hypertension in pregnancy focuses mainly on the pathophysiology and prevention of pregnancy induced hypertension which, when associated with proteinuria, is usually called preeclampsia. Rather than a genuine hypertensive disease, preeclampsia is mainly a systemic endothelial disease
Type Ib glycogenosis is a rare glycogen storage disorder resulting from a defect in the enzyme, glucose-6-phosphatase microsomal translocase. We report a case of Type Ib glycogenosis in an 18 month-old male child who presented with a history of hypoglycemic seizures and recurrent infections and had
Glycogen storage disease (GSD) type Ia is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by a deficiency of glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase). The gene that encodes G6Pase was mapped to 17q21. The molecular genetic basis of GSD type Ia in the mainland Chinese population has not been explored.

Authors present a 10 year old boy with Lesch-Nyhan syndrome with self-inflicted mutilations to the lips, tongue and interior cheek wall, partially avoided by tooth extraction. Hand lesions were prevented by arm restriction. Born with anoxia and in spite of seizures for several years and a marked
