The Challenges Of Diagnosis And Management Of Suspectedautoimmune Hepatitis In A 34-Year-Old Woman With Periodicparalysis And Graves’ Disease, Yeni Larasati, C. Singgih Wahono
Jurnal Penyakit Dalam Indonesia
Periodic paralysis hypokalemia is a muscle weakness that can be caused by hyperthyroidism due to Graves’ disease. The prevalence reaches 10% of patients with periodic paralysis hypokalemia with symptoms of thyrotoxicosis. Graves’ disease is an immune system disorder that can cause other organ dysfunction, such as autoimmune hepatitis. Currently, the diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis is still a challenge for clinicians due to limited supporting examination facilities, such as SMA, AMA, anti-LKM-1. This article discusses a case of a 34-year-old woman with limb weakness for 3 months, losing 4 kg of weight in 1 month, often feeling hungry, restless, having trouble …
Management Of Chronic Kidney Disease-Mineral And Bone Disorder (Ckd-Mbd), Pringgodigdo Nugroho
Management Of Chronic Kidney Disease-Mineral And Bone Disorder (Ckd-Mbd), Pringgodigdo Nugroho
Jurnal Penyakit Dalam Indonesia
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is still a burden on worldwide health issues affecting about 11-13% of the general population. Chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is a common complication in CKD, which occurs early in the disease, and progresses as kidney function deteriorates. With declining kidney function, mineral homeostasis becomes progressively dysregulated, including alterations in several parameters such as calcium, phosphate, intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH). Changes in these parameters are associated with bone disorders and vascular abnormalities, which are strongly correlated with increased cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality, and overall mortality. Currently, CKD-MBD and its complication management have been …
