Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIn-Depth Review of Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Associated NephropathySira Korpaisarn, Wisit Cheungpasitporn, Daych Chongnarungsin et al.Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-Associated Nephropathy (HIVAN) is one of the most important renal complications found in HIV-infected individuals. Morbidity and mortality in this group of patients increases due to End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). Classic histological characteristics of HIVAN are collapsing Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), microcystic tubular dilation and interstitial inflammation and fibrosis. High prevalence of HIVAN among people of African … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 19 Apr 2013 · 7,360 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGynaecologic NephrologyNaheed Ansari, Jolina Santos, Fuad Spath, Srujana PolsaniRenal issues are commonly encountered in females. They can occur both in pregnant and nonpregnant females. Many physiologic changes occur during pregnancy to accommodate the growing fetus. Pregnancy is characterized by changes in blood pressure and expansion of total body volume which results in high glomerular filtration rate. The common renal problems seen in pregnant females are hypertension, proteinuria with … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 4 Aug 2012 · 7,314 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImmunity to Diphtheria in Haemodialysis PatientsAbdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Mortaza Pourahmd, Sara Azhdari et al.Problem statement: The incidence of infectious diseases is increased in patients with chronic renal failure. Chronic renal failure severely influences the immune functions of the host. Diphtheria is of great epidemiological concern. Although mainly observed during childhood, unvaccinated adults and relatively immunocompromised patients are at increased risk for acquiring diphtheria. Approach: To evaluate the anti-Diphtheria immunity level in southern Iranian … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Jun 2011 · 8,091 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEvaluation of Anti-Tetanus Immunity in Haemodialysis PatientsAbdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Rahim Raoofi, Marzieh Sarikhani, Abdolhossain MadaniProblem statement: The incidence of infectious diseases is increased in patients with chronic renal failure. Chronic renal failure severely influences the immune functions of the host. Approach: To evaluate the antitetanus immunity level in southern Iranian patients with end stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis and to find its association with sex, age, blood hemoglobin and serum albumin, duration of dialysis. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,484 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesInvestigating Bio-Char as Flow Modifier and Water Treatment Agent for Sustainable Pavement DesignRenaldo Walters, Shamim A. Begum, Elham H. Fini, Taher M. Abu-LebdehThe life expectancy of Asphalt Binder (AB) has been negatively impacted by the harsh bombardment of Ultraviolet (UV) rays. UV rays cause asphalt to oxidize faster, which results in the deterioration of asphalt's rheological characteristics that can lead to pavement distresses. This paper investigates merits of bio-char to improve asphalt aging susceptibility by blending one control binder (PG 64-22) and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 22 Apr 2015 · 9,049 accessesView PDFCite
