Immunology in Hypertension, Preeclampsia, and Target-Organ Damage [PDF]
Hypertension generally brings to mind hemodynamic mechanisms, increased peripheral vascular resistance, the laws of Ohm or Hagen-Poisseule, and perhaps target-organ damage mediated through acceleration of atherosclerosis, vasculitis, or other concomitant processes.

Objective: Hypertension (HT) can cause vascular and microvascular changes. There is no barrier between systemic blood and ocular region. Changes in choroidal perfusion pressure due to HT may impair retinal function and oxygenation, and subfoveal ...

Renal function and target organ damage in hypertension [PDF]
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is frequently observed in patients with arterial hypertension. The same factors that promote the appearance and progression of atherosclerosis can also promote the development of CKD. Two parameters are usually measured to estimate alterations in renal function, the presence of albuminuria, and the estimation of glomerular ...

ABSTRACT Background Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer, with an overall survival now surpassing 90% in developed countries. However, treatments are not without adverse effects. In this study, we apply the severe toxicity‐free survival (STFS) framework to determine the prevalence of 21 physician‐defined severe ...

ABSTRACT Background Type 1 plasminogen deficiency (PLGD‐1) is an ultra‐rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by variants in the PLG gene and affects approximately 1.6 individuals per million. The condition is characterized by decreased plasminogen levels and impaired function, resulting in fibrin‐rich lesions on mucous membranes throughout the body.

ABSTRACT Pediatric radiation therapy presents unique challenges compared to adult treatments, including those of immobilization, potential need for sedation, and the critical importance of accurate, reproducible positioning. Additionally, heightened attention to imaging doses is necessary to minimize long‐term toxicity in survivors.

Health Literacy, Self‐Efficacy and Knowledge of Sickle Cell Disease Among Caregivers
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary blood disorder in which abnormal haemoglobin leads to severe anaemia, painful crises and organ failure. Caregivers’ health literacy (HL) – their ability to assess, understand and apply information, and interact with healthcare professionals – is crucial for managing children with SCD, yet ...
