Ligaments.—The liver is connected to the under surface of the diaphragm and to the anterior wall of the abdomen by five ligaments; four of these—the falciform‚ the coronary‚ and the two lateral—are peritoneal folds; the fifth‚ the round ligament‚is a fibrous cord‚ the obliterated umbilical vein. The liver is also attached to the lesser curvature of the stomach by the hepatogastric and to the duodenum by the hepatoduodenal ligament (see page 1157). 17 The falciform ligament (ligamentum falciforme

The average molecular weight of a single amino acid is 135 g/mole. There is no reason to run these solutes at the 20 MWCO because : d. glucose and albumin are both too large to pass. 50 MWCO : Na+Cl- equilibrium at 10 min (9.00nM)

DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS INTRODUCTION Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a very serious complication of diabetes mellitus‚ a metabolic disorder that is characterized by hyperglycemia‚ metabolic acidosis‚ and increased body ketone concentrations. The most common causes of DKA are infection and poor compliance with medication regimens. Other causes include undiagnosed diabetes‚ alcohol abuse‚ and a multitude of medical conditions such as cerebrovascular accident (CVA)‚ complicated pregnancy‚ myocardial

may be drawn once or twice weekly during the de-ironing phase until the level of iron in the body has dropped to normal. In many cases‚ it requires 2 or 3 years of periodic phlebotomy to reach the desired level. After the de-ironing phase‚ when the serum ferritin level has fallen into the normal range‚ the patient usually remains on a maintenance schedule of three to four phlebotomy sessions a year. Doctors check ferritin levels annually to monitor iron accumulation. For most people‚ this treatment

Most easily available modality is by serum creatinine. It can be used to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) (15). The main problems associated with usage of serum creatinine in a setting of AKI are – (1) It does not reflect accurately the GFR who is an unstable‚ fluctuant state. In some patients with early AKI‚ serum creatinine can be even normal. When the serum creatinine is rising‚ estimates of GFR based on creatinine values will overestimate
