Neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH) is a subtype of orthostatic hypotension in which patients have impaired regulation of standing blood pressure due to autonomic dysfunction. Several primary and secondary causes of this disease exist. Patients may present with an array of symptoms making diagnosis difficult. This review article addresses the epidemiology, pathophysiology, causes, clinical features, and management of nOH. We highlight various pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches to treatment, and review the recent guidelines and our approach to nOH.

Skin diseases of small ruminants may have an economical impact, apart from the fact that some of them can be transmitted to humans. In this review article, the most important environmental, nutritional, parasitic, bacterial, fungal, viral, immune-mediated and neoplastic skin diseases of the goat and sheep are presented, emphasising on the clinical features, the diagnosis and the treatment.

INTRODUCTION: The authors present a review article on temporal lobe epilepsy in childhood. METHODS: We performed a search in the literature. RESULTS: The main etiologies of temporal lobe epilepsy in childhood are developmental tumors and focal cortical displasia, besides temporal medial sclerosis. The clinical features may be variable particularly in children younger than six years of age. Epilepsy may present with generalized seizures. Electroencephalographic findings are also variable and show a functional dysfunction of several brain areas besides temporal lobes, especially frontal lobes. CONCLUSION: Recent advances demonstrate that temporal lobe epilepsy in childhood present with great etiologic, clinical and electroencephalographic diversity.

The incidence of acute pancreatitis (AP) in children has significantly increased in the past two decades. However, it can be associated with severe morbidity and mortality. Therefore it should be considered in every child presented with unexplained severe abdominal pain. The etiology, clinical manifestation, and course of acute pancreatitis in children are often different than in adults. Therefore the early and effective diagnosis of acute pancreatitis in children is challenging. In this review, we will discuss the etiology, clinical features and laboratory testing for the disease and also the management outlines of acute pancreatitis in children.Northern International Medical College Journal Vol.8(2) January 2017: 235-238

Relapsing polychondritis is an immune-mediated systemic disease characterized by recurrent episodes of inflammation of cartilaginous and proteoglycan-rich tissues, resulting in progressive anatomical deformation and functional impairment of the involved structures. Auricular and nasal chondritis and/or polyarthritis represent the most common clinical features, but potentially all types of cartilage may be involved. Because of the pleomorphic nature of the disease, with non-specific symptoms at the onset, the diagnosis of relapsing polychondritis is often delayed. In this review article we provide a comprehensive look into clinical presentation, laboratory and instrumental investigations, diagnostic criteria, and therapeutic options.

Puffer fish poisoning occurs sporadically throughout the world, especially in the coastal areas. It contains tetrodotoxin which can cause death by muscular paralysis, respiratory depression, and circulatory failure. Early diagnosis and supportive management could ensure a safe and favorable outcome. In this review article, we have tried to explore the pathophysiology, clinical features, and treatment of puffer fish poisoning. doi: 10.3329/taj.v21i2.3806 TAJ 2008; 20(2): 199-202

AbstractEmerging evidence demonstrates that WW domain-containing E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 1 (WWP1) participates into carcinogenesis and tumor progression. In this review article, we will describe the association between dysregulated WWP1 expression and clinical features of cancer patients. Moreover, we summarize the both oncogenic and tumor suppressive functions of WWP1 in a variety of human cancers. Furthermore, we briefly describe the downstream substrates of WWP1 and its upstream factors to regulate the expression of WWP1. Notably, targeting WWP1 by its inhibitors or natural compounds is potentially useful for treating human malignancies. Finally, we provide the perspectives regarding WWP1 in cancer development and therapies. We hope this review can stimulate the research to improve our understanding of WWP1-mediated tumorigenesis and accelerate the discovery of novel therapeutic strategies via targeting WWP1 expression in cancers.
