Sex-linked Disorders01:43

Sex-linked Disorders

113.3K
Like autosomes, sex chromosomes contain a variety of genes necessary for normal body function. When a mutation in one of these genes results in biological deficits, the disorder is considered sex-linked.

Cushing Syndrome II: Pathophysiology

1
Cortisol production is normally governed by the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis, which maintains hormonal balance through tightly regulated feedback mechanisms. Disruption of this regulatory system is central to the development of Cushing syndrome, whether the excess cortisol originates from external medications or internal pathology. Persistent cortisol elevation alters metabolism, immune function, and endocrine signaling, producing the characteristic clinical features...

Cushing Syndrome I: Introduction01:26

Cushing Syndrome I: Introduction

13
Cushing syndrome refers to the collection of clinical manifestations that arise when tissues are exposed to excessive amounts of cortisol or cortisol-like medications over an extended period. Cortisol, a glucocorticoid produced by the adrenal cortex, regulates metabolism, immune responses, and the body’s adaptation to stress. When its concentration remains chronically elevated, these physiological pathways become dysregulated, resulting in the characteristic features of the...

Nephrotic Syndrome I : Introduction

1.1K
Nephrotic Syndrome is a chronic kidney disorder defined by clinical findings such as severe proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, hyperlipidemia, and edema. These symptoms result from damage to the glomeruli, the kidney’s filtering units, increasing their permeability to proteins.Definition and Meaning:Proteinuria, defined as the loss of more than 3.5 grams of protein per day in adults, is a crucial feature of nephrotic syndrome. This condition is often accompanied by edema, the accumulation of...

Barrett Esophagus-II: Clinical Manifestations and Management

1.7K
Individuals with Barrett's esophagus are often asymptomatic, but they may experience symptoms commonly associated with GERD, such as heartburn and acid regurgitation. Additional symptoms can include difficulty swallowing, chest pain, unintentional weight loss, blood in the stool (which may appear black, tarry, or bloody), and episodes of vomiting.
To diagnose Barrett's esophagus, healthcare providers often recommend an endoscopy for those showing symptoms of acid reflux. The procedure...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Hematology
  • Autoimmune Disorders
  • Clinical Case Reports

Background:

  • Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) and immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) are common autoimmune conditions.
  • Evans syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by concurrent AIHA and ITP.
  • Trilineage cytopenias in Evans syndrome present diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.

Observation:

  • A 14-year-old female presented with AIHA and ITP.
  • Initial treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and steroids was successful for AIHA and ITP.
  • Neutropenia developed during the follow-up period.

Findings:

  • Direct antiglobulin test (DAT) was positive.
  • Seric anti-neutrophil antibodies were detected.
  • These findings confirmed a diagnosis of Evans syndrome with trilineage involvement.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the potential for Evans syndrome to manifest with trilineage cytopenias.
  • It underscores the importance of monitoring for neutropenia in patients initially diagnosed with AIHA and ITP.
  • Early identification and management of trilineage Evans syndrome are crucial for favorable outcomes.
