Analysis of genotype and haplotype effects of ABCB1 (MDR1) polymorphisms in the risk of medically refractory epilepsy in an Indian population.

TL;DR: Results indicate that there was no statistically significant difference between allele and genotype frequencies of refractory and drug responsive epilepsy patients, and the predicted haplotypes frequencies of the three polymorphisms did not showsignificant difference between cases and controls.
Journal Article

Quantitation of proteinuria using protein-creatinine ratio in random urine samples.

TL;DR: The random urine protein-creatinine ratio can be used reliably to assess the degree of proteinuria in children and the sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values of the protein-Creatinine ratios in massive proteinuria were very high.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fatal case of Naegleria fowleri meningo-encephalitis in an infant: case report.

TL;DR: A high index of suspicion is required in infants who manifest similarly to pyogenic meningitis but whose CSF shows no bacterial organisms so that a wet mount of a CSF sample can be done for early detection of Naegleria fowleri infection and appropriate intervention.
Journal ArticleDOI
