Survival of Balkan Endemic Nephropathy Patients
Nephron, 2000The retrospective cohort study comprised 97 Balkan endemic nephropathy (BEN) and BEN-suspected patients discovered in 1971 in the field examination in the village of Šopić, one of the regions most frequently affected by the disease. Our aim was to determine the outcome of the disease in patients and to compare the survival of BEN-suspected and BEN ...

Cytogenetic Studies in Balkan Endemic Nephropathy
Nephron, 1988The G band characteristic of chromosomes in 15 patients with Balkan endemic nephropathy (BEN), 20 relatives with no features of the disease and 25 healthy controls were investigated by cytogenetic analysis of lymphocyte cultures from peripheral blood. A specific chromosome marker in BEN was established in one No. 3 chromosome homologue characterized by

Genetic Predisposition to Balkan Endemic Nephropathy
Nephron, 1996This study is the first cytogenetic investigation of healthy relatives of patients with Balkan endemic nephropathy (BEN) who were born in nonendemic areas. Characteristics of BEN No. 3 chromosomal anomalies (extremely high frequencies of 3q25 homologue discordance - 68.5 +/- (SD) 5.03% vs.

Clinical features of Balkan endemic nephropathy
Food and Chemical Toxicology, 1992This paper describes the clinical symptoms and signs of Balkan endemic nephropathy (BEN). The initial asymptomatic period followed by weakness and lassitude during renal insufficiency is emphasized. Non-characteristic lumbar pain may be present and episodes of macrohaematuria may occur.

Guanase activity in endemic balkan nephropathy
Clinica Chimica Acta, 1971Abstract Serum guanase activity was studied in 71 patients with renal diseases and in 30 normal individuals. A significant increase of serum guanase activity was recorded in 73.3 per cent of patients with endemic nephropathy. Only in isolated cases of chronic glomerulonephritis and chronic pyelonephritis, guanase activity was shown to be slightly ...

PRELIMINARY STUDY OF SOIL COMPOSITION FROM BALKAN ENDEMIC NEPHROPATHY AREAS, USING A GC-MS METHOD
Environmental Engineering and Management Journal, 2019Balkan endemic nephropathy (BEN) is a chronic kidney disease occurring predominantly in certain rural villages from Balkan Peninsula, including Romania. Peculiar environmental factors, such as drinking water, organic contaminants derived from coal, plant

Endemic Balkan nephropathy (EBN) is a unique form of chronic interstitial renal disease which is endemic to isolated rural populations of Bulgaria, Romania, and Yugoslavia. The area is confined within a 200-mile radius of Belgrade. The involved villages lie along river valleys in multiple areas of Romania and Yugoslavia where flooding periodically ...
