[Goldenhar syndrome].
Summary
Goldenhar syndrome involves developmental abnormalities of the first and second branchial arches, primarily affecting the face, eyes, spine, and ears. This review covers clinical features, causes, audiology, and treatment for diagnosis and intervention.
Area of Science:
- Craniofacial development
- Genetics and developmental biology
- Audiology and otolaryngology
Context:
- Goldenhar syndrome, also known as oculo-auriculo-vertebral spectrum, presents with complex congenital anomalies.
- Abnormalities typically involve the first and second branchial arches, impacting facial structures, eyes, spine, and ears.
- Associated hearing loss is a significant concern in affected individuals.
Purpose:
- To provide a comprehensive literature review of Goldenhar syndrome.
- To discuss the clinical phenotype, etiology, and audiological findings.
- To offer guidance on diagnosis, genetic counseling, and hearing interventions.
Summary:
- Goldenhar syndrome is characterized by developmental alterations of the first and second branchial arches.
- Key features include facial, ocular, spinal, and auricular abnormalities, with potential hearing loss.
- This review synthesizes current knowledge on the syndrome's presentation, causes, and management.
Impact:
- Aids clinicians in diagnosing Goldenhar syndrome.
- Informs genetic counseling for affected families.
- Guides audiological assessment and hearing intervention strategies.

01:24Nephrotic Syndrome I : Introduction
652
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...

1.0K
Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) encompasses a spectrum of heart conditions caused by sudden obstruction of coronary arteries, typically resulting from the rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque and subsequent thrombus (blood clot) formation. This obstruction can lead to partial or complete blockage of blood flow, causing varying degrees of myocardial ischemia or infarction.ACS includes the following clinical entities:Unstable Angina (UA)Non-ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI)ST-Elevation...

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is characterized by functional disturbances in the gastrointestinal system, presenting a cluster of symptoms without evident structural or biochemical abnormalities. It primarily affects the large intestine and may cause abdominal pain, bloating, excessive gas, diarrhea, constipation, or both.
IBS is a chronic condition that can persist over a long period or recur frequently.

563
Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS), also known as Willis-Ekbom disease, is a neurological disorder characterized by an uncontrollable urge to move the legs due to uncomfortable sensations. These sensations typically occur during periods of rest or inactivity, particularly when lying down or sitting, and can severely disrupt sleep.
The exact cause of RLS is not fully understood, but it is believed to involve dopamine, a neurotransmitter that helps regulate muscle movement. Imbalances in dopamine levels...

Nursing Assessment:Nursing management of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) involves taking the patient's history, focusing on primary complaints such as chest pain, dyspnea, and excessive sweating (diaphoresis), as well as other symptoms like back or jaw pain, nausea, vomiting, palpitations, dizziness, and fatigue. The nurse also reviews the patient's history of cardiac events, risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, smoking, family history, and current medications.In the objective assessment,...

01:26Nephrotic Syndrome II : Assessment and Medical Management
246
IntroductionNephrotic syndrome is a kidney disorder marked by excessive protein loss in the urine, leading to various systemic complications. This condition often results from damage to the glomeruli—the kidney's filtering units—causing proteinuria, low blood protein levels, and fluid retention. Understanding the assessment, diagnosis, and management of nephrotic syndrome is essential for effective treatment and prevention of further kidney damage.AssessmentPatient History: Document...
