acrodermatitis/アルブミン

OBJECTIVE To describe a case of kwashiorkor and an acrodermatitis enteropathica-like eruption associated with zinc deficiency after a distal gastric bypass surgical procedure. METHODS A case report of a morbidly obese patient who underwent a gastric bypass operation is presented, including clinical,

We present here a case of acrodermatitis enteropathica-like eruption associated with essential free fatty acid and protein deficiencies as well as borderline zinc deficiency that occurred after Whipple's operation in a 31-yr-old woman. Her eruptions were improved not by zinc supplements alone, but

Three cases of acrodermatitis enteropathica (a.e.) from two nonrelated families are described. Two siblings had characteristic symptoms of a.e. in childhood. Both survived to adulthood without treatment, at which time the clinical picture became uncharacteristic of a.e. Even so, the serum zinc

The acrodermatitis enteropathica (AE) mutation affects intestinal zinc absorption. Our goal was to determine whether the AE mutation affects zinc uptake in human fibroblasts. Zinc uptake was determined during initial rates of uptake (10 min) following incubation in HEPES/saline buffer. Zinc uptake

A 7-year-old girl suffering from chronic diarrhoea due to sucrase deficiency was referred because of poor hair growth. Her scalp hair had a poor, colourless appearance and was much thinned in the occipital region. Her skin was dry, but otherwise normal. P-zinc was low (7.9 mumol/l), whereas

Thirty-three patients with alcoholic cirrhosis (AC), selected on widely recognized criteria (16, 57), were investigated prospectively for cutaneous manifestations of zinc deficiency. The patients were divided into 3 groups: group A (n = 12): AC without skin lesions; group B (n = 12): AC with skin

Malabsorption (M) is characterized by absorption defect of one or several nutriments in small bowel. Its clinical expression is rarely obvious and biological signs are: anaemia, low serum protein, albumin and lipid rates, low serum calcium, phosphorus and potassium level, and hypoprothrombinaemia.

We report a case of acquired protein energy malnutrition with associated zinc deficiency in an 18-month-old boy with type 1 glutaric acidemia. Physical examination findings included generalized nonpitting edema, widespread desquamative plaques, and sparse hair with a reddish tinge. Laboratory

Essential trace metals participate in a wide range of biochemical processes. Administration of drugs containing nucleophilic atoms, primarily N-, O- and S-ligands, may result in formation of organometallic non-ionic complexes or chelates. The stability of the complex depends on the position of the
