Clinical significance of chimerism

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, 2009
AbstractTwins have been previously classified as either monozygotic or dizygotic. In recent years, fascinating, non‐traditional mechanisms of twinning have been uncovered. We define chimerism versus mosaicism, touch on chimerism in the animal world, and explain timing of chimerism in humans. In addition, we discuss when to suspect chimerism in patients,

Coccidioidouria: Clinical Significance

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1976
Twelve patients had urine cultures positive for Coccidioides immitis. Ten patients showed the usual criteria for dissemination, but 2 were believed, before urine culture, to have only chronic pulmonary involvement. In 8 patients, there was impairment of host defense mechanisms due either to associated disease or immunosuppressive drug therapy.

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1959
Summary Hyperaminoaciduria is significant as a manifestation of aberrant cellular function in the kidney and in other organs (bone, liver, and brain in particular). The various patterns of hyperaminoaciduria may be described in terms of the endogenous renal clearances of the individual amino acids.

THE CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF CHANGE*

Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics, 1987
Abstract— Clinicians frequently make judgements about the clinical importance of a change in “score” on visual function tests obtained from patients on successive visits.

Clinical significance of bacteroidaceae

Infection, 1980
Material from 50 patients with purulent otitis media was investigated. All patients had undergone surgical operation. The results indicate that anaerobic non spore-forming bacteria, especially gram-negative rods of the family Bacteroidaceae, may play an important role in the aetiology of purulent otitis media.

CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF HEMOPTYSIS

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1952
The expectoration of blood is always an alarming experience for the patient and a matter of grave concern to the attending physician, because it may be the warning of serious disease. There is probably no symptom other than severe and acute pain that will stimulate a patient to seek medical aid as promptly as loss of blood for the first time from an ...
