Early cellular and molecular derangements have been evaluated as potential pivotal factors for the late development of interstitial fibrosis after experimental hydronephrosis. In this study, we delineated kinetics renal cortical macrophage infiltration well expression transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) monocyte chemoattractant peptide-1 (MCP-1) at 12, 48, 96 h unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO). Interstitial number in obstructed kidney versus contralateral unobstructed (CUK)...
Objective To describe the use of intravenous magnesium sulfate for control muscle spasms and severe generalized rigidity in a child with moderate to tetanus without need prolonged deep sedation, mechanical ventilation, or neuromuscular blockade. Design Case report. Setting Pediatric intensive care unit tertiary care, university-based children's hospital. Interventions A continuous infusion sulfate. Measurements Main Results We 12-yr-old who was treated painful initially refractory sedation....
Abstract BACKGROUND: Although the data on impact of hospitalist programs inpatient education medical students during their internal medicine clerkships are favorable, is limited educational experience pediatric clerkships. The purpose this study was to compare evaluations and nonhospitalist faculty third‐year pediatrics rotations. METHODS: We performed a retrospective student rotations at Penn State Children's Hospital from July 1999 through September 2000. Using 4‐point scale, gave an...
Research suggests that students become less patient-centered and empathetic in response to both internal external factors, including the organizational culture, or hidden curriculum, of medical school. Students often feel compelled make compromises when they experience tension between competing values clinical teaching environments. To address this, we implemented a modular, longitudinal professionalism curriculum for third-year students, based on conceptual model highlights student's ideal,...
There is a scarcity of long-term data on steroid-free immunosuppression using alemtuzumab in pediatric kidney transplantation (KTx). This study examines outcomes with without steroid maintenance therapy KTx.From July 2005 to June 2015, 71 KTx recipients received maintenance. They were followed from 4.1 14.1 years post KTx.Patient survival: One child expired functioning graft post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD). Patient survival was 98.6%. Graft Eighteen grafts lost (16...
Abstract Background: There are over 230 disease-causing variants in the calcium-sensing receptor gene (CaSR). Gain-of-function missense mutations CaSR cause Autosomal Dominant Hypocalcemia (ADH) characterized by hypocalcemia (hCa), hypoparathyroidism (hPTH), and hypercalciuria. Patients with ADH sensitive to fluctuations serum calcium (Ca); supplementation Ca vitamin D can inappropriate renal retention leading hypercalcemic events long-term complications. Clinical Case: A 15-year-old adopted...
