The primary clinical manifestations of PNH include Intravascular haemolytic anaemia, thrombosis in vessels and bone marrow failure, which can cause pancytopenia. Reversible acute kidney injury (AKI) due to haemolysis-induced severe tubular damage is a recognized complication of paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (PNH). It has been proposed that acute tubular necrosis and acute kidney injury associated with PNH results from tubular haemoglobin (Hb)-mediated toxicity due to haemolysis. We report a case of AKI associated to haemolysis. We report a case of AKI associated to PNH and extensiv...

The term stroke encompasses, Cerebral infarction, Intra cerebral hemorrhage, Cerebral venous thrombosis, Subarachnoid hemorrhage. Based on a retrospective analyses of subjects admitted in urban hospitals in India it was found that stroke constitutes nearly 2% of all hospital cases and 20% of neurological admissions. The incidence in younger population (below 40 years) is high (13 to 32%) when compared to European countries. A Random survey on 2,58,576 residents in urban areas of Vellore revealed only 147 hemiplegic subjects presumed to be Vascular origin. Thus the prevalence rate for hemiplegia in south India was reported to be 56.9 per 1,00,000 as compared 150 to 186 per 1,00,000 for USA and Europe. AIM OF THE STUDY: To study 200 cases of stroke with complete analysis of Age, Sex, Incidence, Types of stroke, other risk factors, Clinical presentation, Onset, Associated features, and CT scan finding...

When compared with the general population, cardiovascular mortality in transplant recipients is increased by nearly 10-fold among patients within the age range of 35 and 44 and at least doubled among those between the ages of 55 and 64. All transplant recipients should currently be considered as coronary heart disease risk. This study was designed to analyze cardio-vascular risk factors among renal transplant patients. To analyze the risk factors for cardiovascular disease in the renal transplant recipients. Analytical study was done in Government Stanley hospital among renal transplant recipients. All recipients’ profile of Age, Sex, Nature of the Donor, Post transplant duration in months was noted. Height and weight were measured. Body mass index was calculated. Waist circumference and Blood pressure were measured. Fasting and 2 hours postprandial...
