Te Ahu - a meeting place

Sites: A Journal of Social Anthropology and Cultural Studies, 2016
In 2012 a new community complex opened in Kaitaia, housing the local museum, library, i-Site, hall, theatre and Council offices. This complex is very obviously a meeting place for people of the community and out-of-town visitors. But the site on which the building, Te Ahu, stands has a much longer history as a meeting place.

Nefrología (English Edition), 2015
Haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS) is a clinical entity defined as the triad of nonimmune haemolytic anaemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute renal failure, in which the underlying lesions are mediated by systemic thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA).

Postoperative Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome Associated with Complement C3 Mutation

Case Reports in Nephrology, 2014
Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) can be distinguished from typical or Shiga-like toxin-induced HUS. The clinical outcome is unfavorable; up to 50% of affected patients progress to end-stage renal failure and 25% die during the acute phase ...

Characterization of patients with aHUS and associated triggers or clinical conditions: A Global aHUS Registry analysis

Nephrology
AbstractIntroductionAtypical haemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a rare form of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) associated with complement dysregulation; aHUS may be associated with other ‘triggers’ or ‘clinical conditions’. This study aimed to characterize this patient population using data from the Global aHUS Registry, the largest collection of ...

BMC Nephrology
Background Atypical haemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is an uncommon form of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA). However, it remains difficult to diagnose the disease early, given its non-specific and overlapping presentation to other conditions such as ...

Complement therapy in atypical haemolytic uraemic syndrome (aHUS) [PDF]

Central to the pathogenesis of atypical haemolytic uraemic syndrome (aHUS) is over-activation of the alternative pathway of complement. Inherited defects in complement genes and autoantibodies against complement regulatory proteins have been described ...
