Zusammenfassung Anamnese und Diagnostik: Ein 75-jähriger Patient wies neben unspezifischen anamnestischen Symptomen (Appetitverlust, Merkfähigkeitsstörung und Muskelschwäche) klinisch diskrete Beinödeme, abgeschwächte Muskeleigenreflexe und eine deutliche Gedächtnisstörung auf. Aufgrund einer euvolämischen, laborchemisch hypoosmolaren Hypoatriämie und eines Urinnatriums im Normbereich wurde als Arbeitsdiagnose von einem Syndrom der inadäquaten ADH-Sekretion (SIADH) ausgegangen. Während sich weder in der Anamnese noch in den folgenden Untersuchungen eine dem SIADH zugrunde liegende Pathologie eruieren ließ, ergab sich in den weiteren Laboruntersuchungen der Befund einer ausgeprägten Hypothyreose. Die Hyponatriämie bei Hypothyreose spiegelt eine Komponente der renalen Funktionsstörung bei Schilddrüsenhormonmangel wider. Therapie und Verlauf: Nach Flüssigkeitsrestriktion und Hormonsubstitution erreichte der Patient schnell normale Natriumwerte und zeigte eine deutliche Besserung seiner kognitiven Fähigkeiten. Schlussfolgerung: Als Schlussfolgerung aus dieser Kasuistik wird Zurückhaltung bei der Diagnose eines SIADH empfohlen, bevor nicht eine sorgfältige Untersuchung des Nebennieren- und Schilddrüsenhormonstatus erfolgt ist. Abstract Case History and Diagnosis: A 75-year-old male patient presented with a history of anorexia, muscle weakness, and increasing memory loss. He had mild pedal edema and decreased deep tendon reflexes. As the laboratory tests showed hypoosmolar hyponatremia and urinary sodium within the normal range, a syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion (SIADH) was presumed. While neither the medical history nor any of the diagnostic procedures revealed any underlying pathology explaining the SIADH, laboratory tests showed significant hypothyroidism. Hypothyroid states are associated with significant changes in renal function, one of which is hypoosmolar hyponatremia. Treatment and Course: Treatment included fluid restriction and hormone substitution and resulted in a quick correction of the hyponatremia and a clear improvement of the patient's cognitive function. Conclusion: It is concluded that the diagnosis of SIADH should only be made after thorough investigation of the adrenal and thyroid hormone status. 相似文献

Genome profiles of bilateral dysgerminomas, a unilateral gonadoblastoma, and a metastasis from a 46, XY phenotypic female 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

We present a case report of a 16-year-old, phenotypic female with bilateral dysgerminomas, a unilateral gonadoblastoma, and a peritoneal metastasis. The patient's constitutional karyotype was 46,XY. The chromosomal copy number, examined by the comparative genomic hybridization technique, showed 3 gains in the dysgerminoma of the right ovary, 6 gains in the dysgerminoma of the left ovary, and 2 gains and 1 loss in the gonadoblastoma of the left ovary. The metastasis showed 5 gains of which 4 were also observed in the dysgerminoma of the left ovary. The DNA ploidy classifications of the gonadoblastoma and the dysgerminoma in the right ovary were tetraploid, whereas the dysgerminoma in the left ovary and the metastasis were aneuploid. We therefore propose that the metastasis most probably developed from the dysgerminoma of the left ovary. 相似文献

The tumor gene survivin is highly expressed in adult renal tubular cells: implications for a pathophysiological role in the kidney 下载免费PDF全文

The inhibitor of apoptosis protein survivin is of critical importance for regulation of cellular division and survival. Published data point to a restricted function of survivin in embryonic development and cancer; thus survivin has been broadly proposed as an ideal molecular target for specific anti-cancer therapy. In contrast to this paradigm, we report here broad expression of survivin in adult differentiated tissues, as demonstrated at the mRNA and protein levels. Focusing on the kidney, survivin is strongly expressed in proximal tubuli, particularly at the apical membrane, which can be verified in rat, mouse, and human kidneys. In the latter, survivin expression seems to be even stronger in proximal tubuli than in adjacent cancerous tissue. Primary and immortalized human renal tubular cells also showed high levels of survivin protein expression, and RNA interference resulted in a partial G(2)/M arrest of the cell cycle and increased rate of apoptosis. In conclusion, survivin may be of importance for renal pathophysiology and pathology. The predominant apical expression of survivin may indicate a further, yet unknown, function. Interventional strategies to inhibit survivin's function in malignancy need to be carefully (re)evaluated for renal side effects, as well as for other possible organ dysfunctions. 相似文献

Arterial and venous thrombotic events can lead to severe complications in the nephrotic syndrome, but may remain clinically
silent in a substantial proportion of patients. Intracardiac thrombi associated with multiorgan thrombosis have been described
in autopsy cases of the earlier literature, but have never been documented in vivo. We here report an asymptomatic intracardiac
thrombus in a child with frequently relapsing steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome and a ventricular septal defect.

PURPOSE: Gross genomic aberrations are increasingly seen as a cause rather than a consequence of carcinogenesis. Carcinomas may be prevented by systemically acting agents when used in high-risk individuals. If gross genomic aberrations could be shown to be predictive markers in precancers, they could serve as a tool for identifying high-risk individuals to be included in chemopreventive trials. PATIENTS AND METHODS: To investigate the predictive power of gross genomic aberrations in several types of oral premalignancies, we analyzed 57 biopsies from oral erythroplakias of 37 patients, both histologically and for DNA content. DNA content was measured by high-resolution image cytometry, and distribution histograms of DNA content were generated and interpreted according to established protocols. The primary end point was cancer-free survival. RESULTS: Fifty-seven dysplastic oral red lesions from 37 patients were investigated. Forty-one lesions from 25 patients were classified with aberrant DNA content (DNA aneuploidy), of which 23 patients (92%) later developed an oral carcinoma (after a median observation time of 53 months; range, 29 to 79 months). Of 12 patients having altogether 16 lesions with normal DNA content, none developed a carcinoma (median observation time, 98 months; range, 23 to 163 months; P <.001). In multivariate analysis, DNA content was a significant prognostic factor (P <.001), whereas histologic grade, sex, use of tobacco, size and location of lesions, and the presence multiple of lesions were not. CONCLUSION: Gross genomic aberrations are highly predictive for the subsequent occurrence of carcinomas from a wide range of oral premalignancies. 相似文献

Hypoxia promotes fibrogenesis in vivo via HIF-1 stimulation of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9 下载免费PDF全文

Hypoxia has been proposed as an important microenvironmental factor in the development of tissue fibrosis; however, the underlying mechanisms are not well defined. To examine the role of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1), a key mediator of cellular adaptation to hypoxia, in the development of fibrosis in mice, we inactivated Hif-1alpha in primary renal epithelial cells and in proximal tubules of kidneys subjected to unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) using Cre-loxP-mediated gene targeting. We found that Hif-1alpha enhanced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in vitro and induced epithelial cell migration through upregulation of lysyl oxidase genes. Genetic ablation of epithelial Hif-1alpha inhibited the development of tubulointerstitial fibrosis in UUO kidneys, which was associated with decreased interstitial collagen deposition, decreased inflammatory cell infiltration, and a reduction in the number of fibroblast-specific protein-1-expressing (FSP-1-expressing) interstitial cells. Furthermore, we demonstrate that increased renal HIF-1alpha expression is associated with tubulointerstitial injury in patients with chronic kidney disease. Thus, we provide clinical and genetic evidence that activation of HIF-1 signaling in renal epithelial cells is associated with the development of chronic renal disease and may promote fibrogenesis by increasing expression of extracellular matrix-modifying factors and lysyl oxidase genes and by facilitating EMT. 相似文献
