IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most frequent type of primary glomerulonephritis since first was described more than four decades ago. It prevalent cause glomerular disease that causes end-stage renal disease. In patients with IgAN, hematuria common reported symptom, particularly in those a preceding upper respiratory tract infection. Although pathogenesis IgAN usually multifactorial, autoimmune complex formation and inflammatory processes are widely recognized pathogenic mechanisms. Multiple...
Drug induced liver injury (DILI) is a rising morbidity amongst patients with COVID-19 clinical syndrome. The updated RUCAM causality assessment scale validated for use in the general population, but its utility determination cohorts of and DILI remains uncertain.This retrospective study was comprised presenting suspected to emergency department Weill Cornell medicine-affiliated Hamad General Hospital, Doha, Qatar. All cases that met inclusion criteria were comparatively adjudicated by two...
Brucellosis (undulant fever) is a zoonotic infection caused by Brucella species. It typically presents with fever, malaise, night sweats, and arthralgia. One of its rare complications infective endocarditis, which occurs in approximately 1.3% patients can be further complicated embolic stroke. This report describes occurrence endocarditis presenting as an A 34-year-old male presented sudden left-sided weakness fever. He reported headaches, generalized the preceding week. The patient worked...
Drinking water quality is a major problem in Pakistan, especially the Abbottabad region of Pakistan. The main objective this study was to use Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and integrated Geographic Information System (GIS)-based statistical model estimate spatial distribution exceedance levels groundwater parameters related health risks for two union councils (Mirpur Jhangi) located Abbottabad, A field survey conducted, samples were collected from 41 sites analyze parameters. data...
Acute kidney injury (AKI), chronic renal failure, and tubular abnormalities represent the disease spectrum of malignancy. Prompt diagnosis treatment may prevent or reverse these complications. The pathogenesis AKI in cancer is multifactorial. affects outcomes cancer, oncological therapy withdrawal, increased hospitalization rate, hospital stay. Renal function derangement can be recovered with early detection targeted cancers. Identifying patients at higher risk damage implementing preventive...
Abstract The extensive use of pesticides for increasing the agricultural production is affecting quality groundwater. objectives this article are to (i) develop pesticide relative leaching ranks well sites, (ii) maps human health risks due applications, and (iii) identify most significant parameters in simulations groundwater vulnerability assessment. methods include development acifluorfen 25 sites using ArcPRZM‐3, risk model simulated maximum dissolved bentazon concentrations on basis USA...
The non-typhoid Salmonella (NTS) species are commonly associated with gastroenteritis and other forms of intestinal disease. Thoraco-pulmonary infections less reported. We describe the case a 66-year-old Qatari lady who presented subacute cough. Chest imaging revealed multiple pulmonary pericardial cavitary lesion air fluid levels. Bronchoalveolar lavage culture grew group D. patient was treated 4 weeks appropriate antibiotics. Clinical radiological improvement were documented on subsequent...
[b]BACKGROUND[/b] Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is a rare cause of postural headache. In most patients, the site cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak at cervical or thoracic spinal level. The imaging modalities to establish diagnosis SIH include computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MRI) brain, CT, MRI myelography, radionuclide cisternography. Treatment usually consists conservative measures, but patients unresponsive these treatments can be treated by epidural blood patch...
Pituitary apoplexy is a serious condition, which if left untreated, might lead to irreversible life-long complications. Hence, pituitary should always be included in the differential diagnoses of patient with an isolated sixth cranial nerve (CN) palsy. This report highlights case presenting CN palsy associated apoplexy. Although adenomas are common, they seldom present abducent without any other involvement. The 47-year-old female presented acute right eye pain, diplopia, and squint....

Introduction:Avascular necrosis arises as a consequence of vascular disruption, primarily affecting the blood supply to femoral head and potentially leading degenerative alterations within hip joint. This condition can be attributed wide array causes risk factors, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), post-transplant complications, certain medications like glucocorticoids bisphosphonates, well genetic hemoglobinopathies such sickle cell disease(1,2). Hemophilia, characterized by...
Several intricate interactions of environmental and genetic factors can lead to autoimmune conditions in susceptible hosts. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex systemic disease which be triggered or exacerbated by infection infectious reactions. The causal link between infections autoimmunity has been established through clinical studies. Though several viral have associated with SLE, yet the impact COVID-19 on SLE onset flares not well established. We report young female who...
Abstract Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the most common disabling diseases globally. The main etiopathology CKD attributed to progressive renal fibrosis secondary recurrent insults. Anemia a known complication in patients, associated with higher hospitalization rates and increased mortality risk. CKD-associated anemia (CKD-AA) either due true iron deficiency and/or functional anemia. There new emerging evidence about effects erythropoiesis stimulating agents treatment CKD-AA their...
