An 18-year-old male patient had presented with diffuse hyperpigmentation after birth and with adrenal insufficiency syndrome since childhood. After puberty, no secondary sexual signs developed. Laboratory examination showed an extremely high concentration of serum triglycerides (9.14 mmol/L) and
To assess the nutritional status of an elderly nursing home population of South Florida, forty-seven persons with ages ranging from 65 to 96 years were studied. Complete clinical examination and anthropometric measures were performed, along with blood cell count, biochemical blood parameters and
BACKGROUND
There have been a limited number of population-based studies investigating the associations between cardiovascular disease risk factors and early age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
METHODS
A total of 7,557 eligible people aged 30 or older were recruited from 2006 to 2007.
Idiopathic eruptive macular pigmentation (IEMP) is a rare dermatological disorder with generally unclear etiology and pathogenesis. A 5½-year-old girl was referred to hospital with a 10 month history of brown skin rashes. In early infancy, citrin deficiency had been diagnosed with the SLC25A13
Painful restricted movements of the extremities, hyperpigmentation over swollen joints, and a sclerema-like feel to the skin with increased serum triglyceride was seen in a 5-month-old baby with postnatal CMV infection. In an infant with pseudoparalysis of the limbs, the possibility of CMV infection
Hypothyroidism was diagnosed in 50 dogs and excluded in 86 dogs suspected of hypothyroidism, on the basis of the results of bovine thyrotropin response tests. Breed, pedigree, sex or neutering status did not significantly influence the likelihood of the dogs being hypothyroid. The hypothyroid dogs
BACKGROUND
We report a case of a male infant with the association of pseudohypertriglyceridemia, hypoadrenalism (hyponatremia, hyperpotasemia, dehydration), high creatine phosphokinase level (possible Duchenne's muscular dystrophy, DMD) and diagnosed contiguous gene deletion syndrome in
Seagrasses are high plants sharing adaptive metabolic features with both terrestrial plants and marine algae, resulting in a phytocomplex possibly endowed with interesting biological properties. The aim of this study is to evaluate the in vitro activities on skin cells of an ethanolic extract
