| pneumocystis carinii infection with severe pneumomediastinum and lymph node involvement in a whippet mixed-breed dog. | a 3.5-y-old whippet mixed-breed dog was presented with a history of respiratory distress, exercise intolerance, and generalized demodicosis. hematologic alterations included marked leukocytosis and neutrophilia. radiographic examination showed a diffuse interstitial and mild peripheral alveolar lung pattern and pneumomediastinum. because the cytologic examination of the bronchoalveolar aspirate was not diagnostic and a persistent perforation of the upper respiratory tract could not be ruled out, ... | 2017 | 28548623 |
| nodular regenerative hyperplasia: a case of rare prognosis. | introduction: nodular regenerative hyperplasia (nrh) is a known etiology of noncirrhotic portal hypertension. cases of biopsy-proven nrh in human immunodeficiency virus (hiv)-positive patients have been described. while these patients often have normal synthetic liver function, several reports described disease progression to liver failure. case: we here present a 26-year-old woman with history of congenital hiv on antiretroviral therapy complicated by pneumocystis carinii pneumonia at age 14. c ... | 2017 | 28491877 |
| low prevalence of pneumocystis pneumonia in hospitalized patients with systemic lupus erythematosus: review of a clinical data warehouse. | objective in the era of powerful immunosuppression, opportunistic infections are an increasing concern in systemic lupus erythematosus. one of the best-studied opportunistic infections is pneumocystis pneumonia; however, the prevalence of pneumocystis pneumonia in systemic lupus erythematosus is not clearly defined. this study evaluates the prevalence of pneumocystis pneumonia in hospitalized systemic lupus erythematosus patients, with a focus on validating the pneumocystis pneumonia and systemi ... | 2017 | 28399687 |
| lenalidomide-bendamustine-rituximab in patients older than 65 years with untreated mantle cell lymphoma. | for elderly patients with mantle cell lymphoma (mcl), there is no defined standard therapy. in this multicenter, open-label phase 1/2 trial, we evaluated the addition of lenalidomide (len) to rituximab-bendamustine (r-b) as first-line treatment for elderly patients with mcl. patients >65 years with untreated mcl, stages ii-iv were eligible for inclusion. primary end points were maximally tolerable dose (mtd) of len and progression-free survival (pfs). patients received 6 cycles every four weeks ... | 2016 | 27354719 |
| [a case of interstitial pneumonitis induced by folfiri+bevacizumab combination therapy for liver and lung metastasis of colon cancer]. | a 64 -year-old female received oral s-1 chemotherapy followed by mfolfox6 chemotherapy for postoperative liver and lung metastasis of sigmoid colon cancer. the tumor progression was observed after twelve courses of mfolfox6 chemotherapy, and then folfiri+bevacizumab chemotherapy was performed. after two courses of folfiri+bevacizumab chemotherapy, leucopenia was observed. the chemotherapy was then discontinued and g-csf was administered. two days later she complained of high fever and dry cough, ... | 2009 | 20009477 |
| [pneumocystosis distribution among accident liquidators in the chernobyl nuclear power plant in remote period]. | the goal of the present study was to discover etiological role of pneumocystis carini/jiroveci and to determine frequency of pneumocystic infection in the structure of bronchopulmonary pathology among armenians-liquidators of accident consequences in the chernobyl nuclear power plant. for the study, 65 patients-liquidators with diagnosed pneumonia, 44 liquidators with chronic bronchitis and 34 with bronchial asthma were examined. the control group was included 65 patients with pneumonia, 44 with ... | 2009 | 19644205 |

| management of membranous nephropathy. | the management of membranous nephropathy first requires the recognition of whether the disorder is primary (idiopathic) or secondary. next, a familiarity with its natural history and knowledge of our current capacity to predict those patients with the worst outcome is reviewed. treatment options of those at risk of progression with immunosuppressive drugs is then discussed along with the required accompaniment of risk reduction strategies including idealization of the blood pressure, the use of ... | 2002 | 11912483 |
| [a case of anti-glomerular basement membrane antibody (agbma) nephritis associated with myeloperoxidase-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (mpo-anca)]. | a 68-year-old patient visited our hospital, because of progressive renal failure. laboratory data were serum creatinine 13.3 mg/dl, bun 74.3 mg/dl, agbma 134u, mpo-anca 37% and cic 1.6 g/dl. hemodialysis was performed on admission and renal biopsy was conducted. though the histological findings showed fibrocellular crescents and global sclerosis in many glomeruli, renal function was gradually ameliorated by administration of prednisolone (40 mg/day) and cyclophosphamide (50 mg/day). after 3 week ... | 1994 | 8084079 |
| raymond pearl memorial lecture, 1989: cultural practices as determinants of clinical pathology and epidemiology of venereal infections: implications for predictions about the aids epidemic. | sexually transmitted diseases newly introduced into diverse primitive and isolated populations have behaved differently in clinical severity and seriousness of the epidemics they have caused, because of culturally different sexual practices. epidemic interstitial plasma cell pneumonia in the 1930s-1950s in eastern and northern europe, caused by pneumocystis carinii and accompanied by cytomegalovirus infection, was an unexpected aids-like epidemic which spread slowly, then quickly and inexplicabl ... | 1990 | 28520226 |
