Tuesday, June 10, 2008. ANTIPHOSPHOLIPID ANTIBODIES (APLA)-DEFINITIONS AND HISTORY. One major difficulty in studying APLA is that no one really knows what the underlying pathogenic mechanism is that leads to the clinical syndrome. This review will side-step this issue (best reviewed in the McNeil paper) and concentrate on clinical matters. TESTS FOR ANTIPHOSPHOLIPID ANTIBODIES (APLA). APTT will correct to normal at time 0 and stay in the normal range on each of the time points. This test is very sensitiv...

Saturday, June 14, 2008. Refers to renal failure of unknown etiology that occurs in a fully hydrated patient with severe, often progressive, liver disease. Urine biochemistry is characteristic and renal histopathology unremarkable. The urine sediment should be examined carefully. The presence of cellular casts suggests vasomotor nephropathy rather than hepatorenal syndrome. Obstructive uropathy should be excluded by renal ultrasonography or, if necessary, retrograde pyelography. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Sunday, June 22, 2008. The syndromes of insulin resistance actually comprise a broad clinical spectrum. These include patients with obesity, glucose intolerance, diabetes, syndrome X, and patients with an extreme insulin-resistant state. Many of these disorders are associated with various endocrine, metabolic, and genetic conditions. The syndromes also may be associated with immunological diseases and may exhibit distinct phenotypic characteristics. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
