The Benefit of the Reperfusion Procedure after Renal Ischaemia in Rabbits Being Initiated with Distilled Water

Issue: 
Vol 66, Issue 1: 2017
DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2014.314
Pages: 
25–30
Synopsis: 
This was a biochemical and histopathological investigation of the effect of distilled water on oxidative injury induced with ischaemia/reperfusion in rabbit kidneys. This study indicates that the use of distilled water can be beneficial in protecting against injury caused in the kidneys by the ischaemia/reperfusion procedure applied in surgical interventions.

ABSTRACT


Objective: This was a biochemical and histopathological investigation of the effect of distilled water on oxidative injury induced with ischaemia/reperfusion in rabbit kidneys.

Clinical Profile of Familial Mediterranean Fever in a Paediatric Population in Eastern Turkey

Issue: 
Vol 65, Issue 2: 2016
DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2014.173
Pages: 
281–6
Synopsis: 
Familial Mediterranean fever is a frequently seen chronic inflammatory disease that can lead to severe morbidity and mortality if left untreated. Severity and frequency of attacks are correlated with mutations. However, environmental factors play an important role as the clinical course can differ even in people with mutations.

ABSTRACT

Objective: Clinical and genetic findings of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) may vary in different populations. Environmental factors may also affect phenotypic features of FMF. In this study, we investigated demographic, clinical and mutational features of FMF patients treated in a single reference hospital in Turkey.

An Examination of the Effects of Leuprolide Acetate Used in the Treatment of Central Precocious Puberty on Bone Mineral Density and 25-Hydroxy Vitamin D

Issue: 
Vol 64, Issue 2: March (2015)
DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2014.346
Pages: 
104–7
Synopsis: 
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists may have an adverse effect on bone health. They may exhibit these effects by impacting on vitamin D levels.

ABSTRACT

Aim: Leuprolide acetate is a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogue frequently used in the treatment of central precocious puberty. Research is currently taking place into its effects on endocrine systems. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of leuprolide acetate on vitamin D and bone mineral density.

A Rare Cause of Rhabdomyolysis from Brucella: A Case Report

Issue: 
Vol 62, Issue 8: Nov (2013)
DOI: 
10.7727/wimj.2012.261
ABSTRACT
 
Rhabdomyolysis is caused by myocyte necrosis, which results in the release of muscular cell contents into the circulation and extracellular fluid. We present a case of rhabdomyolysis due to brucella infection without any complications. Following the treatment applied for brucella, creatinine kinase level was significantly reduced. Rhabdomyolysis associated with brucella is rare in children.
