BACKGROUND
Periodontitis-related pathogens, such as Campylobacter or Treponema species, have recently been shown to be associated with immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN). Some strains of Streptococcus mutans, a major pathogen of dental caries, harbour the cnm gene that encodes a collagen-binding
We report two sisters (13- and 4-year-old) presenting with moderate intellectual disability, dysmorphic facial features, intermittent hematuria, proteinuria, and dental caries. Their parents and other family members were not affected. Whole-exome sequencing was performed to screen the underlying
Lymphoplasmacytic stomatitis and gingivitis was diagnosed in an 8-year old female domestic shorthair. The cat had evidence of severe generalized inflammation of the oral cavity. Biopsy samples were evaluated and displayed a lichenoid, interface stomatitis which was predominantly lymphoplasmacytic.
A century ago, Edmund Randerath (1899-1961), who was one of the pioneers in nephrology that provided indirect experimental proof for the glomerular origin of proteinuria, was born. In the first decades of this century, the concept prevailed that "nephrosis" was a process of primary tubular cell
A 55-year-old male patient suffered from severe high-voltage electric burn with an area of 20%TBSA full-thickness injury. The injury involved the distal end of left upper limb, right trunk, and whole abdominal wall. Fracture of the 7th-10th ribs was found in the right side of chest, with perforation
Intracavitary infusion of bevacizumab is one effective treatment for malignant serous cavity effusion (MSCE). In this study, we retrospectively evaluated the efficacy of local treatments in 996 advanced cancer patients with MSCE who received paracentesis and intracavitary bevacizumab, or
A 79-year-old female was admitted to our hospital with fever, proteinuria, hematuria, high levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), and high titer of myeloperoxidase antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (MPO-ANCA). Our diagnosis was microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) and she was treated with steroid pulse
Herein we report a case of the simultaneous occurrence of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in a 76-year-old woman. She presented with fever, night sweats, and general malaise. A laboratory examination revealed leukopenia, anemia, polyclonal
Mice transgenic for thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP), under regulation of the lymphocyte-specific promoter Lck, develop cryoglobulinemia and membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) similar to the disease in patients. To determine whether infiltrating macrophages, a hallmark of this
Cyclosporin A using in treatment glomerulonephritis can cause neurological side effects.
METHODS
Nephrotic syndrome (NS) with microscopic hematuria was recognized in a boy in the age of 9.7 years. In kidney biopsy focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis was found. Remission was obtained on oral
Lymphocyte activation is crucial for the generation of immune responses. In vitro studies have demonstrated that TRAPs are critical regulators of lymphocyte activation. However, more recent in vivo studies have demonstrated that with the exception of LAT, TRAPs, such as SIT, NTAL, and LAX, only
In normal mice, stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1/CXCL12) promotes the migration, proliferation, and survival of peritoneal B1a (PerB1a) lymphocytes. Because these cells express a self-reactive repertoire and are expanded in New Zealand Black/New Zealand White (NZB/W) mice, we tested their
BACKGROUND
Laparoscopic surgery is rapidly emerging as the standard of care for a variety of urological conditions, even among patients who have undergone prior renal transplantation. We describe the technique of bilateral native nephrectomy and allograft nephrectomy by laparoscopy.
METHODS

Multiple myeloma is a hematologic disease, which accounts for 15% of hematologic malignancies. The average age of onset is between 65-70 years and is very rare in young patients, as 2% are under 40 years old. We present a case of 36-year-old women with history of 20 pack years (p/y) smoking, who
OBJECTIVE
We assessed the frequency of oral candidiasis and the association between demographic variables, disease-related variables, corticosteroid treatment, other treatments and the occurrence of oral candidiasis in the Hopkins Lupus Cohort.
METHODS
In this large prospective cohort study of 2258
