Pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum (PAIVS) is rare, less than 1% of congenital heart disease. It needs a therapeutic approach according to its individual morphologic feature. Surgical treatment of valvotomy and modified Blalock-Taussig shunt or non-surgical interventional catheter balloon valvuloplasty can be used for mild to moderate hypoplasia of right ventricle. Fontan operation can be considered for less optimum... |

Purpose : It has been reported that patients with nephrotic syndrome have high serum IgE value
and IL-4 involve in IgE synthesis, IL-6 is an autocrine growth factor for the proliferation of
mesangial cells. We studied association between serum cytokines and of nephrotic syndrome.
Methods : We measured serum IL-6, IL-4, IFN-Υ, CD23 in 14 children with nephrotic syndrome
and 3 healthy children by... |
