Item type:Publication, Indicators of abdominal obesity: waist circumference and waist-to-hip ratio in adolescence of North Macedonia(Macedonian Association of Anatomists, 2021-04-02); ; ; ; Obesity in children and adolescents in the world is reaching a scale of an epidemic. It is considered the most widespread disease in children in many countries, especially in developed countries. The aim of this study was to define WC and WHR among Macedonian adolescents aged 11 to 14 years. A cross-sectional study was performed in 2013-2015, comprising a sample of 1267 adolescents of the Republic of Macedonia aged 11 to 14 years; 646 males and 621 females. Weight, height, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), hip circumference (HC) and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) were measured and percentiles were calculated using Cole’s Lambda, Mu and Sigma (LMS) method. The relation between WHR and general obesity, as defined by the International Obesity Task Force, was investigated with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. The boys had statistically significant higher values in all anthropometric measures, except in HC where statistically significant gender differences were not found. BMI, WC, and HC increased with the age. The obtained reference percentile curves can be used temporarily for obesity screening in children and adolescents. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Goodpasture Syndrome Diagnosed One Year And A Half after the Appearance of the First Symptoms (Case Report)(Scientific foundation Spiroski, 2016-12-15); ; ; Dragana StojkovicBACKGROUND: Goodpasture syndrome was originally described as an association of alveolar haemorrhage and glomerulonephritis. It occurs when the immune system attacks and destroys healthy body tissue. AIM: We are presenting a patient with a clinical picture of pulmonary haemorrhage and glomerulonephritis, which is diagnosed by renal biopsy. CASE PRESENTATION: His illness began a year and a half before being diagnosed. In that period he had occasional exacerbations. He was received at our Clinic in extremely serious condition, and after stabilisation of his medical condition, there was made a biopsy of the kidney. The p-ANCA was 8.93 U/ml (neg < 3, poz > 5 U/ml). Histopathological diagnosis of biopsy of the kidney was: Glomerulonephritis extra capillaries focalis, segmentalis et globalis. Based on this he was diagnosed with Goodpasture syndrome. He received corticosteroid therapy and cyclophosphamide, with good response to treatment, and he is currently in a stable condition, receiving only corticosteroid therapy. CONCLUSION: Goodpasture syndrome is a severe illness caused by the formation of antibodies to the glomerular basement membrane and alveolus with consequential damage to renal and pulmonary function. With current therapy, long-term survival is more than 50% - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Systemic inflammatory profile in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(Macedonian Association of Anatomists and Morphologists, 2024-05-01); ; ; Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)is heterogeneous condition with various phenotypes that have their own pathogenetic mechanisms and certain inflammatory mediators, as C-reactive protein, interleukins, circulating leukocytes. Uncovering the inflammatory profile may identify disease biomarkers. We aimedto compare the values of systemic inflammatory parameters in patients with different clinical phenotypes and determine their correlation with clinical parameters.In 30 COPD patients weanalyzeddemographic and clinical data, history of allergies, cigarette smoking and history of exacerbations. We phenotyped them intonon-exacerbator, exacerbator and COPD with asthma phenotype. COPD assessment test, modified dyspnea scale and the BODE (Body mass index, Obstruction, Dyspnea, Exercise capacity) index werecalculated. Spirometry and lung X-ray were performed. Peripheral blood was taken for analysis of inflammatory parameters.There were 16 patients(53.33%) with phenotype of non-exacerbator, and 7 (23.33%) with exacerbatorand COPD with asthma phenotype each. COPD assessment testhadsignificantly lowestvalue in non-exacerbator and modified dyspnea scalesignificantly highest value in exacerbatorphenotype. Therewere no mild gradepatientsin exacerbator,andno very severe grade in nonexacerbatorphenotype. C-reactive proteinand interleukin 8 had significantly lowest value in non-exacerbator; leucocytes significantly highest value in exacerbator; eosinophyls and interleukin 4 significantly highest value in COPD with asthma phenotype. There was no significant difference among the three phenotypes in neutrophyls andinterleukin 18. The three clinical phenotypes: non-exacerbator, exacerbator and COPDwith asthma have their own specific clinical and inflammatory features that have clinical, prognostic and therapeutic implications - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
