To measure the proportions of patients switching from generic to branded drugs among users antiepileptic (AED) compared other therapeutic areas and investigate medical services utilization associated with lamotrigine.Medical pharmacy claims data Régie de l'Assurance Maladie du Québec database April 1998 July 2006 were used. Patients an epilepsy diagnosis (International Classification Diseases-9 345) treated lamotrigine for >60 90 days before entry date in Quebec (February 1, 2003) selected....
Percutaneous renal biopsy (PRB) can result in serious complications. The study is aimed to compare the yield and complications rate of real-time ultrasonagram (USG)-guided PRB needle tracking with without guide two different periods.We compared 2138 kidney biopsies performed periods, 1510 during first period from April 2004-December 2010 628 second January 2011-March 2013. All both periods were by nephrologists. Radiologists provided image while nephrologists imaging period.Of all patients,...
To evaluate whether generic substitution was associated with any difference in medical resource utilization for 5 widely used antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) the United States.Health insurance claims from PharMetrics Database, representing over 90 health plans between January 2000 and October 2007, were analyzed. Adult patients epilepsy, continuously treated carbamazepine, gabapentin, phenytoin, primidone, or zonisamide, selected. An open-cohort design to classify into mutually exclusive periods...
Introduction: The kidney is one of the most common organs involved in systemic amyloidosis. Several studies have attempted scoring amyloid deposits and predicting outcome. A new grading scheme proposed, known as renal prognostic score (RAPS), which provides a better means for amyloidosis Objectives: present study aims to estimate clinicopathological biochemical parameters cases role RAPS assessing outcome prognosis. Materials Methods: This retrospective included all diagnosed from October...
Hypertension is a highly prevalent issue worldwide. The prevalence of underdiagnosed hypertension in India calls for the need this consensus article, which aims to optimize screening strategies. In modified Delphi approach was used develop statements. Key recommendations include adoption standardized protocols across diverse healthcare settings, incorporating both office-based and out-of-office blood pressure measurements (OBPM). By implementing these evidence-based strategies, improve early...
We undertook this study to compare subjective global assessment (SGA) and nutrition risk index (NRI) as malnutrition screening tools in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Nutrition status of the patients was categorized into low, moderate high based on both NRI SGA. The sensitivity, specificity predictive values were compared with SGA, an already validated tool PD Two hundred eighty-three end-stage renal disease (age 50.02 ± 13.76 years; 204 males, 150 diabetic) included. Based 71/283...
Abstract Objectives Prediabetes is defined as an intermediate state of hyperglycemia with glucose levels above normal but below the diagnostic cutoff diabetes mellitus. considered important risk factor for development and complications associated diabetes. Since glomerular hyperfiltration (elevated GFR) albuminuria represent early reversible stages kidney damage seen in patients type 2 diabetes, we aim to assess impact prediabetic range on renal functions measured by estimated GFR urine...
Background Metabolic abnormalities are common in HIV‐infected individuals and, although multifactorial origin, have been strongly associated with antiretroviral therapy. Methods Using automated claims and clinical databases, combined medical record data, we evaluated the burden of dyslipidaemia (DYS) metabolic among a cohort 900 patients aged 18 years older who received their care from large multispecialty group between 1 January 1996 30 June 2002. A Cox proportional hazards model for DYS...
Calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) are the preferred drugs for treatment of childhood steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) who also resistant to cyclophosphamide (CYC). Although few studies have shown a benefit one over other, efficacy and safety either CNIs (tacrolimus [TAC] or cyclosporine [CSA]) in this special population remained be assessed long-term studies. Forty-five children with SRNS were CYC (CYC-SRNS) from January 2006 June 2011, included study. Patients treated CNI TAC CSA...
<b>Background:</b> Acute kidney injury (AKI) following cardiac surgery is a major complication resulting in increased morbidity, mortality, and economic burden. In this study, we assessed the usefulness of estimating serum neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) as biomarker predicting AKI patients with stable chronic disease (CKD) undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OP-CABG). <b>Patients Methods:</b> We prospectively studied sixty nondialysis-dependent CKD...
A phenomenon is known as "The Internet of Things" unstoppable due to the rise sensors, programmable chips, embedded wireless technologies, and a growing amount internet bandwidth. Our time may be characterized by Things (IoT), which perhaps most important technological niche. The interconnected devices that can send receive data over are called things. prototype electronic computer system for controlling monitoring environmental parameters in communications equipment room described this...
Invasive fungal infection is a complication seen in immunocompromised patients. A disseminated has high rate of mortality. Although known to be most organs, thyroid involvement rarely reported. Hence, we report fatal case mucormycosis which resulted into laryngeal nerve paralysis and death renal allograft recipient.
Hepatic encephalopathy is a reversible neuropsychiatry state that complicates liver disease.Pathogenesis of Encephalopathy in chronic function widely accepted to be due failure hepatic clearance toxins products from gut exact toxin involved remains controversial but ammonia thought an important factor.Ammonia levels help both diagnosis and serve as guide treatment.Diagnosis can done based on clinical criteria the severity graded by West Haven Criteria.This criterion simplest grading...
