The effectiveness of cimetidine (30–40 mg/ kg/day) was evaluated in 32 children with gastroesophageal reflux disease complicated by esophagitis who entered a random double-blind trial for 12 weeks. Esophagitis diagnosed all patients endoscopy biopsy. Seventeen (age, mean ± SD: 21.7 97.65 months) received (c-pts), and 15 29.03 39.73 placebo (p-pts). All intensive postural therapy. Based on clinical endoscopic (and histologic) data, c-pts three p-pts were healed (p < 0.01), the condition four...

Abstract There is a vast literature evaluating the empirical association between stay-at-home policies and crime during COVID-19 pandemic. However, these academic efforts have primarily focused on effects within specific cities or regions rather than adopting cross-national comparative approach. Moreover, this body of not only generally lacks causal estimates but also has overlooked possible heterogeneities across different levels stringency in mobility restrictions. This paper exploits...
A commercially available wheat bran preparation has been given to six infants between the ages of 6 and 16 months suffering from constipation not due metabolic or anatomic causes. In all infants, normal bowel movements reappeared after a month diet containing bran. After on this diet, we observed following: decrease in blood levels calcium, phosphate, trace elements; an increase fecal excretion biliary salts cholesterol; appearance predominantly proteolytic flora over saccharolitic flora....
Summary Seventy‐six normal full‐term infants have been observed from birth to the fourth month of life. Thirty‐six were breast‐fed; others fed four different feeds (conventional or adapted formulas) containing amounts calories, protein, fat, and carbohydrate. The control mechanism volume intake appears be well functioning in human milk formulas providing conventional calorie concentrations. other associated with either a high BUN base insulin It is concluded that uncontrolled should only...
To analyze the results of flexible ureterorenoscopy (F-URS) with holmium laser in treatment kidney stones ectopic and fusion anomalies (horseshoe rotation anomalies).We reviewed data from 13 patients renal that underwent F-URS April 2011 to 2017. We analyzed demographic clinical (age, gender, BMI, anatomical abnormality, location dimension calculi) perioperative (method treatment, stone-free rate, number days DJ catheter complications).The mean stone size was 12.23 +/- 5.43 mm (range...
Objective: To elucidate the current scenario of endourology in Brazil for treatment urinary lithiasis, with an emphasis on regional differences and reasons why certain techniques are still underutilized. Materials Methods: An electronic questionnaire was sent by email to 4,745 members Brazilian Urological Society (BSU) 2016 collect information 3 main endourological procedures used nephrolithiasis: Semi-rigid ureteroscopy (URS), Flexible (F-URS) percutaneous nephrolithotripsy (PCNL). Results:...
As the number of kidney transplants continues to rise, so does and complexities surgical-related complications, which may be associated with increased morbidity potentially graft loss. Ureteral stenosis, most prevalent urological complication, require diverse techniques for surgical correction depending on several recipient abnormalities. Here we report clinical outcomes a 62-year-old man posttransplant pyeloureterostomy stricture successfully treated ureterocalicostomy after lower pole...

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE: The use of polymeric double J stents for the management ureteral strictures is effective a short period time, although they have limited due to risk obstruction and need periodic stent changes. Metal been developed with aim maintaining greater ureteric patency, alleviating symptoms, and, especially, allowing less frequent exchanges. Although metallic changes are approved 12 months, there no concrete data defining safe dwell-time prevent clinically significant...

Introduction Although rare, as the population ages, abdominal aortic aneurysm synchronous to malignancies, renal cell carcinoma, is expected become more prevalent. There are only two case reports of minimally invasive surgeries treat these diseases, with endovascular repair and laparoscopic nephrectomy, but they were performed in stages, iodinated contrast without robotic assistance. Case report We herein present a 71-year-old patient chronic kidney disease, 6.4 cm infra-renal associated...
