Mefv Gene Mutations In Familial Mediterranean Fever Phenotype Ii Patients With Renal Amyloidosis In Childhood: A Retrospective Clinicopathological And Molecular Study
(Oxford Univ Press, 2002)
Background. Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by recurring attacks of fever and serositis. The definition of the mutated gene has allowed molecular diagnosis of the disease. ...
The Protective Effect Of Taurine Against Gentamicin-Induced Acute Tubular Necrosis In Rats
(Oxford Univ Press, 2000)
Background. Taurine, which is the major intracellular free beta-amino acid, is known to be an endogenous antioxidant and a membrane-stabilizing agent. In this study, we wished to know whether taurine altered the concentration ...
Assessment of Cardiovascular Risk in Paediatric Peritoneal Dialysis Patients: A Turkish Pediatric Peritoneal Dialysis Study Group (Tupepd) Report
(Oxford Univ Press, 2009)
Methods. We aimed to clarify arteriosclerotic risk and to document possible relationships between cardiovascular risk factors and echocardiographic parameters in paediatric peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. M-mode/Doppler/tissue ...
Mutational Analysis Of The Xanthine Dehydrogenase Gene In A Turkish Family With Autosomal Recessive Classical Xanthinuria
(Oxford Univ Press, 2003)
Background. Classical xanthinuria is classified into two categories: type I, deficient only in xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH) activity; and type II, deficient in both XDH and aldehyde oxidase. Both types present mainly with ...
Mutations In Plce1 Are A Major Cause Of Isolated Diffuse Mesangial Sclerosis (Idms)
(Oxford Univ Press, 2008)
Background and objectives. Diffuse mesangial sclerosis (DMS) is a histologically distinct variant of nephrotic syndrome (NS) that is characterized by early onset and by progression to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). Besides ...
Thirteen Novel Nphs1 Mutations In A Large Cohort Of Children With Congenital Nephrotic Syndrome
(Oxford Univ Press, 2008)
Background. Congenital nephrotic syndrome (CNS) is defined as nephrotic syndrome that manifests at birth or within the first 3 months of life. Most patients develop end-stage renal disease (ESRD) within 2 to 3 years of ...
Association of Nitric Oxide Production and Apoptosis in A Model of Experimental Nephropathy
(Oxford Univ Press, 2001)
Background. In recent studies increased amounts of nitric oxide (NO) and apoptosis have been implicated in various pathological conditions in the kidney. We have studied the role of NO and its association with apoptosis ...
Bone Mineral Density in Haemodialysis Patients: A Comparative Study of Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry and Quantitative Ultrasound
(Oxford Univ Press, 2000)
Background. Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) of bone is a relatively new technique that appears to assess 'bone quality' in addition to bone mineral density. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic potential ...
