Renal medullary necrosis [PDF]

The American Journal of Medicine, 1952
Abstract Patients with diabetes and/or obstruction of the urinary tract and infection are predisposed to inflammation progressing to ischemic necrosis of the renal medulla, a life-threatening disease which has been described under the terms necrotizing papillitis, papillary necrosis and necrotizing pyelonephritis but here designated renal medullary ...

Thyroid: Medullary carcinoma [PDF]

Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology, 2013
Medullary thyroid cancers (MTC) are rare neuroendocrine tumors arising from the parafollicular C-cells of the thyroid. In this review, we provide a general overview of the classification, pathology, and clinical management of MTC. In the latter half, we survey the underlying genetic framework of MTC and its potential implications within a diagnostic ...

A raridade histológica no câncer da tireoide The histological rarity of thyroid cancer

Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2012
O câncer da tireoide é a neoplasia endócrina mais comum, correspondendo a cerca de 1% de todos os tipos de câncer. Sarcomas, linfomas e metástases para a glândula tireoide são raros e pouco descritos na literatura.

Recurrent hemorrhage risk associated with medial target medullary artery anastomosis from the periventricular collateral vessel in adult patients with moyamoya disease

BMC Neurology, 2021
Background Although the association between periventricular target collateral anastomosis and recurrent ipsilateral hemorrhage has been evaluated in adult patients with moyamoya disease (MMD), no studies have investigated the relationship between target ...

CD44 impacts glomerular parietal epithelial cell changes in the aged mouse kidney

Physiological Reports, 2020
CD44 contributes to the activation of glomerular parietal epithelial cells (PECs). Although CD44 expression is higher in PECs of healthy aged mice, the biological role of CD44 in PECs in this context remains unclear.

The medullary microcirculation

Kidney International, 1987
Like other regional circulations, the medullary circulation supplies oxygen and other primary substrates to the medulla and removes carbon dioxide and other waste metabolites. It also acts as a countercurrent exchanger and simultaneously removes water reabsorbed from the renal tubule to preserve mass balance.

Continuous bladder urinary oxygen tension as a new tool to monitor medullary oxygenation in the critically ill

Critical Care, 2022
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in the critically ill. Inadequate renal medullary tissue oxygenation has been linked to its pathogenesis. Moreover, renal medullary tissue hypoxia can be detected before biochemical evidence of AKI in large mammalian ...

Role of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid in mediating hypertension in response to chronic renal medullary endothelin type B receptor blockade. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
The renal medullary endothelin (ET-1) system plays an important role in the control of sodium excretion and arterial pressure (AP) through the activation of renal medullary ET-B receptors.
