Of nine women with hyperglobulinaemic renal tubular acidosis four presented with acidosis and five had the “incomplete” form of the disorder. Seven patients had nephrogenic diabetes insipidus, but none had the Fanconi syndrome. Investigation showed abnormal immunoglobulins and autoantibodies in all nine patients. Diseases coexisting with renal tubular acidosis were Sjögren''s syndrome, hyperglobulinaemic purpura, autoimmune liver and thyroid disease, diffuse pulmonary fibrosis, and a peripheral neuropathy. It is suggested that this type of renal tubular acidosis might be due to an autoimmune process.  相似文献

Sera from patients with Henoch-Schönlein purpura were examined for cryoglobulinaemia. Thirty patients had acute Henoch-Schönlein purpura, with or without renal diseas; 14 had chronic nephritis after a previous episode of purpura; and 17 were well, without urinary abnormalities, after recovering from Henoch-Schönlen purpura. Raised concentrations of cryoglobulins were present in 14 (47%) of those with acute purpura, nine (64%) of those with chronic nephritis, but none of those who had recovered completely from Henoch-Schönlein purpura. This suggests that acute Henoch-Schönlein purpura and the chronic nephritis that sometimes follows it have an immune-complex pathogenesis. IgA and properdin were found in several cryoglobulins, which suggested that complement had been activated via the alternative pathway, but isolated cryoglobulins capable of splitting C3 in vitro did so via the classical pathway.  相似文献

Background

Thrombotic microangiopathies (TMA) in adults such as thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) are life-threatening disorders if untreated. Clinical presentation is highly variable and prognostic factors for clinical course and outcome are not well established.

Methods

We performed a retrospective observational study of 62 patients with TMA, 22 males and 40 females aged 16 to 76 years, treated with plasma exchange at one center to identify clinical risk factors for the development of renal insufficiency.

Results

On admission, 39 of 62 patients (63%) had acute renal failure (ARF) with 32 patients (52%) requiring dialysis treatment. High systolic arterial pressure (SAP, p = 0.009) or mean arterial pressure (MAP, p = 0.027) on admission was associated with acute renal failure. Patients with SAP>140 mmHg on admission had a sevenfold increased risk of severe kidney disease (OR 7.464, CI 2.097–26.565). MAP>100 mmHg indicated a fourfold increased risk for acute renal failure (OR 4.261, CI 1.400–12.972). High SAP, diastolic arterial pressure (DAP), and MAP on admission were also independent risk factors for persistent renal insufficiency with the strongest correlation for high MAP. Moreover, a high C-reactive protein (CRP) level on admission correlated with renal failure in the course of the disease (p = 0.003). At discharge, renal function in 11 of 39 patients (28%) had fully recovered, 14 patients (23%) remained on dialysis, and 14 patients (23%) had non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease. Seven patients (11%) died. We identified an older age as risk factor for death.

Conclusions

High blood pressure as well as high CRP serum levels on admission are associated with renal insufficiency in TMA. High blood pressure on admission is also a strong predictor of sustained renal insufficiency. Thus, adult TMA patients with high blood pressure may require special attention to prevent persistent renal failure.  相似文献

The discovery of a case of renal tubular acidosis and fibrosing alveolitis led to the investigation of 19 further patients. Abnormal pulmonary function tests were found in a further four patients with overt renal tubular acidosis and in four out of eight patients with “incomplete” renal tubular acidosis. The response to an ammonium chloride test in seven patients with cryptogenic fibrosing alveolitis was normal. Those patients with a defect of both renal acidification and pulmonary gas transfer had concurrent autoimmune diseases such as Sjögren''s syndrome and primary biliary cirrhosis. It is suggested that the renal and pulmonary abnormalities may be part of a systemic disorder capable of affecting many organs. Moreover, hyperglobulinaemia and autoantibodies in these patients further suggests that immunological mechanisms are concerned in the pathogenesis of these abnormalities.  相似文献

Two men with Wegener''s disease began immunosuppressive treatment during severe renal insufficiency. Despite an initial temporary remission new lesions appeared and renal failure progressed. Haemodialysis was started, cytotoxic drugs were stopped, and steroid dosage was reduced. All extrarenal manifestations of the disease remitted, however, suggesting a favourable effect of either the immunosuppression induced by terminal renal failure or the haemodialysis itself. Renal transplantation was then undertaken in both patients. Thirteen and 55 months after the operations respectively renal function was satisfactory and no signs of reactivation of Wegener''s disease had appeared. These results show that whatever the activity of Wegener''s disease and its initial response to immunosuppressive agents, dialysis and transplantation are fully warranted once irreversible renal failure is established.  相似文献

Two patients with disseminated histoplasmosis are reported. One patient presented with severe thrombocytopenic purpura and splenomegaly. Histoplasmin skin test, blood and bone marrow cultures and smears, sputum cultures, and chest radiographs were negative for Histoplasma capsulatum. She died on the sixth hospital day from a massive intracerebral hemorrhage. Cardiorespiratory function was maintained until one kidney was removed for homotransplantation. The second patient, with chronic glomerulonephritis and uremia, received the renal homograft from the first patient. Initial signs of homograft rejection developed five days postoperatively. Diffuse thrombocytopenic purpura occurred shortly thereafter. Spores of Histoplasma capsulatum were observed in blood smears, in leukocyte concentrates, and in five-day leukocyte cultures from the blood obtained prior to death. Disseminated histoplasmosis was found in both patients at autopsy. The severe platelet deficit in both cases suggests that systemic histoplasmosis should be considered as a cause of thrombocytopenic purpura.To our knowledge, this is the first reported instance of direct transmission of Histoplasma capsulatum, and must be considered a hazard in homotransplantation.In vitro leukocyte cultures as a method for early diagnosis of certain disseminated fungous infections needs further investigation.  相似文献

A case of Goodpasture''s syndrome is described in which bilateral nephrectomy was undertaken because of massive pulmonary hemorrhage. Similar cases recorded in the literature are reviewed. Various hypotheses to explain the beneficial effects of renal ablation on lung purpura are considered. It is suggested that the pulmonary hemorrhage in Goodpasture''s syndrome is mediated in part by a non-antibody humoral factor with permeability-increasing properties that is released from the nephritic kidney.  相似文献

Reports in the medical literature of seven patients with multiple myeloma who died of acute renal failure following intravenous urography prompted a study of 39 patients with multiple myeloma who were subjected to intravenous urography at the Cleveland Clinic from 1940 to 1959. Four developed acute renal failure and two died within three weeks. All four revealed evidence of renal damage, or insufficiency, or both prior to urography. Thirty-five patients, 15 of whom had renal damage, had no untoward reaction to intravenous urography. These observations suggest that urography is associated with a small but definite risk in patients who have multiple myeloma and renal involvement.  相似文献

The effects of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition with captopril were investigated in patients with diabetic nephropathy and hypertension. After nine days'' treatment with captopril glomerular filtration rate was unchanged in 13 patients, whereas renal plasma flow had increased from 265 to 302 ml/min/1.73 m2 body surface area (p less than 0.05) and the filtration fraction had decreased from 14.3 to 12.8% (p less than 0.025). During two years'' treatment with captopril in 14 patients the mean arterial blood pressure had fallen by 5 mm Hg (p less than 0.005) and the deterioration in glomerular filtration rate had decreased from 10.3 to 2.4 ml/min/year (p less than 0.005). There was no correlation between the fall in blood pressure and the reduction in the deterioration of glomerular filtration rate. These findings suggest that the effects of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition on renal haemodynamics protect renal function. Inhibitors of angiotensin converting enzyme should be considered for lowering blood pressure in patients with diabetic nephropathy.  相似文献

Circulating IgA-antigliadin antibodies were detected with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in four of 121 patients (3%) who had IgA mesangial nephropathy and 14 of 17 children (82%) who had untreated coeliac disease. No positive cases were present in the 54 healthy subjects of the control group. Three patients who had IgA nephropathy and IgA-antigliadin antibodies underwent jejunal biopsy, and two showed mucosal atrophy. In these two patients urinary abnormalities, together with the IgA-antigliadin antibodies, disappeared completely after three months and five months, respectively, of following a gluten free diet. Circulating IgA immune complexes were found in most patients who had coeliac disease and Berger''s disease associated with IgA-antigliadin antibodies, suggesting overactivity of the B cells producing IgA in both conditions. By contrast, a circulating IgA rheumatoid factor was detectable in three of the four patients who had IgA nephropathy and asymptomatic coeliac disease but was always absent in children who had coeliac disease but did not show signs of renal disease. These results suggest that a more complex abnormality in the IgA immune response is necessary for renal disease to become manifest in patients who have gluten enteropathy.  相似文献

Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a type of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA). Studies report that the majority of TTP patients present with a deficiency of ADAMTS13 activity. In a database of TMA patients in Japan identified between 1998 and 2008, 186 patients with first onset of acquired idiopathic (ai) ADAMTS13-deficient TTP (ADAMTS13 activity <5%) were diagnosed. The median age of onset of TTP in this group of patients was 54 years, 54.8% were female, 75.8% had renal involvement, 79.0% had neurologic symptoms, and 97.8% had detectable inhibitors to ADAMTS13 activity. Younger patients were less likely to present with renal or neurologic dysfunction (p<0.01), while older patients were more likely to die during the TTP hospitalization (p<0.05). Findings from this cohort in Japan differ from those reported previously from the United States, Europe, and Korea with respect to age at onset (two decades younger in the other cohort) and gender composition (60% to 100% female in the other cohort). We conclude that in one of the largest cohorts of ai-TTP with severe deficiency of ADAMTS13 activity reported to date, demographic characteristics differ in Japanese patients relative to those reported from a large Caucasian registry from Western societies. Additional studies exploring these findings are needed.  相似文献

Portions of kidney from three patients with renal disease that were originally described by Richard Bright between 1827 and 1836 have been preserved in the Gordon Museum at Guy''s Hospital. Histological study has shown that two cases fall into the current diagnostic category of mesangiocapillary (membranoproliferative) glomerulonephritis. One of these patients had a five-year clinical history and died with chronic renal failure and uraemia. The other patient died after three to four months with a severe nephrotic syndrome. The third patient was a young woman with chronic “phthisis pulmonalis” and renal amyloidosis.  相似文献

Two patients with Parkinson''s disease and renal insufficiency had excessively high concentrations of amantadine hydrochloride in the blood. The amounts of the drug removed by hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis were small. However, since extrarenal elimination is negligible in such patients, frequently repeated dialysis may be required to remove the drug.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE--To assess the effect of high dose inhaled corticosteroids on skin. DESIGN--Cross sectional study of patients receiving treatment for chest diseases. SETTING--Outpatient chest clinic in a teaching hospital. PATIENTS--68 Patients divided into four groups of similar age--namely, 15 receiving long term oral prednisolone, 21 receiving high dose inhaled corticosteroids, 15 receiving low dose inhaled corticosteroids, and 17 controls. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES--Skin thickness at three sites measured by A scan ultrasound and clinical assessment of purpura. RESULTS--Compared with controls patients in both the oral prednisolone treated group and the high dose inhaled corticosteroid treated group had significantly thinner skin at all three sites (group median thicknesses: prednisolone treated group 28-33% less than controls; high dose inhaled corticosteroid treated group 15-19% less than controls). Differences in skin thicknesses between the low dose inhaled corticosteroid treated group and the controls were trivial. The prevalence of purpura was significantly greater in patients receiving oral prednisolone (12/15 patients) and high dose inhaled corticosteroids (10/21) than in controls (2/17). CONCLUSION--Skin thinning and purpura represent further evidence of systemic effects of high dose inhaled corticosteroids.  相似文献

It has recently been established that the rate of progression of chronic renal failure in man can be slowed by restricting dietary protein. Consequently, the short term and long term effects of a low protein diet on the course of different chronic nephropathies were studied in an attempt to delineate the factors that determine the response to such a diet. When a low protein diet was given for six months renal function improved significantly in nine patients with chronic tubulointerstitial nephritis (p less than 0.025); the diet had a marginally beneficial effect in 12 patients with chronic glomerulonephritis (p less than 0.05) and no effect in nine with hypertensive nephrosclerosis. The heterogeneous functional response in the patients with chronic glomerulonephritis correlated closely with the effect of the diet on these patients'' proteinuria (r = 0.76, p less than 0.01). In a short term study (four weeks) of 12 patients with chronic renal failure changes in renal plasma flow were proportional to dietary protein intake. Renal vascular resistance fell during a high protein diet and increased when dietary protein was restricted. The changes in renal plasma flow during the low protein diet correlated well with the patients'' long term functional response to the diet (r = 0.76, p less than 0.01). It is concluded that the response to a low protein diet in chronic renal failure is determined, firstly, by the nature of the underlying nephropathy, with maximal benefit being observed in non-glomerular disorders; secondly, by the effect of the diet on the proteinuria in chronic glomerulonephritis; and, thirdly, by the haemodynamic response to the diet, with patients with a reactive renal vascular bed improving with a low protein diet.  相似文献

In a retrospective survey of the management of extrapulmonary tuberculosis lymph node and genitourinary tuberculosis were found more commonly than bone and joint or gynaecological disease. Only 29% of patients received 18 moths'' chemotherapy while 31% received nine to 12 months'' treatment with rifampicin and isoniazid regimens and 34% had short-course chemotherapy with other regimens. Five patients were not offered any chemotherapy after diagnosis, and in five patients the diagnosis was overlooked because of administrative errors. One patient died from tuberculosis (renal). Poor drug compliance appeared less of a problem than in pulmonary tuberculosis. Only 14% of patients had their disease managed solely by consultants who were not specialists in chest disease. Liaison with a chest consultant did not necessarily ensure chemotherapy for 18 moths.  相似文献
