kwashiorkor/알부민

1. Serum colloidal osmotic pressure was measured in children 'at risk' to kwashiorkor, in other with frank signs of the disease and during recovery. Simultaneous estimations of serum albumin and globulin concentrations and assessments of the extent of oedema were also made. 2. During the development

The various types of oedema in man are considered in relation to Starling's hypothesis of fluid movement from capillaries, with the main emphasis on nutritional oedema and the nephrotic syndrome in children. It is concluded that each condition has sufficient anomalous findings to render Starling's

Plasma zinc, copper, selenium, ferritin and whole blood manganese concentrations were measured in 22 children with kwashiorkor on admission to hospital and on days 5, 10 and 30 of refeeding. Twenty similarly aged, healthy, well nourished children served as controls. The mean (SEM) zinc, copper and

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,

It has been argued that the oedema of kwashiorkor is not caused by hypoalbuminaemia because the oedema disappears with dietary treatment before the plasma albumin concentration rises. Reanalysis of this evidence and a review of the literature demonstrates that this was a mistaken conclusion and that

Reduction of hospital stay and mortality rate due to dehydration and electrolyte imbalance in children suffering from severe marasmic Kwashiorkor was attempted. A program of parenteral nutrition providing 70 to 100 milliliters water, 30 to 40 kilocalories, and 3 to 4 grams amino acids per kilogram

The serum protein binding of salicylic and salicyluric acid has been determined by ultrafiltration in 60 children after administration of oral salicylate. The children were classified according to nutritional status: well-nourished (n = 12), underweight (n = 12), marasmic (n = 17)

OBJECTIVE Infection is a common occurrence in children with kwashiorkor. It has been suggested that infection in kwashiorkor results from immune depression, and that the immune depression of kwashiorkor is caused by a diet-associated elevation of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). The purpose of this study
