Health care organizations are working in a competitive environment. In these days hospital needs to enhance the level of satisfaction if they want to remain in the competition with other hospitals. Patient satisfaction is basically satisfying patients' expectations and understanding their needs. Patients' feedback can affect the overall quality, to improve organizational learning and development agenda and provide an opportunity. The aim of this study was to determine the patient satisfaction at Private hospital of Karachi for the in-patient departments. This study concludes that the majority of the patients are satisfied with the services provided by the in-patient departments of selected Private hospitals of Karachi.

As such, whistleblowing connects with sustainability, and in particular with the UN sustainable development goals (SDG 16, reducing corruption) for transparency and accountability in public sector entities.

Recently, FPA has become a popular algorithm in the evolutionary computation field due to its superiority to many other algorithms. As a consequence, in this paper, FPA, its improvements, its hybridization and applications in many fields, such as operations research, engineering and computer science, are discussed and analyzed. Based on its applications in the field of optimization it was seemed that this algorithm has a better convergence speed compared to other algorithms. The survey investigates the difference between FPA versions as well as its applications. To add to this, several future improvements are suggested.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/62877239" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="d1c904b6dd7dd9bb77c3c90c41e1c5b2" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":75501466,"asset_id":62877239,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/75501466/download_file?st=MTczMzk1ODAyOCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="140393508" href="https://neu.academia.edu/NabilDiab">Nabil Diab</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="140393508" type="text/json">{"id":140393508,"first_name":"Nabil","last_name":"Diab","domain_name":"neu","page_name":"NabilDiab","display_name":"Nabil Diab","profile_url":"https://neu.academia.edu/NabilDiab","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_62877239 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="62877239"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 62877239, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_62877239", }); });</script></li><li class="js-percentile-work_62877239 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden u-tcGrayDark"><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x percentile-widget" style="display: none">•</span><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 62877239; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-percentile-work_62877239"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></li><li class="js-view-count-work_62877239 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><div><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="62877239"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 62877239; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=62877239]").text(description); $(".js-view-count-work_62877239").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span><script>$(function() { $(".js-view-count-work_62877239").removeClass('hidden') })</script></div></li></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_62877240" data-work_id="62877240" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/62877240/Cognitive_Predictors_of_the_Value_of_One_s_Own_Life_in_Students">Cognitive Predictors of the Value of One’s Own Life in Students</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">The aim of the article is to present the findings of the empirical research on the feeling of the value of one's own life (VOL) in students.

Experiencing the feeling of VOL is understood to be the intended activity of an individual through which they reinforce (strengthen) their psychological and personal being. A presumption about the important role of a cognitive factor in experiencing the feeling of VOL in students was tested. In the manifestation of VOL, the role of such a cognitive factor as basic beliefs was investigated. Methods. Basic beliefs were diagnosed using the modified questionnaire by R. Janoff-Bulman. To diagnose the parameters of the feeling of VOL, the author's questionnaire was used. 286 students took part in the testing. The correlations between the scores of two questionnaires were calculated. Logistic regression was used.

Controversy continues about lymphocytotoxic antibodies are known to be at a high Methods. In this study, we randomized sensitized renal risk of encountering several difficulties. These include transplant recipients, who received prophylactic treata positive crossmatch, a primary non-functioning alloment with or without antithymocyte globulin (ATG), graft, an acute rejection episode and, in the long-term, in addition to a standard triple regimen consisting of a reduced graft survival [1-3]. Many strategies have cyclosporin, steroids and azathioprine at ATG discontibeen designed to manage sensitized recipients; among nuation.

induction therapy; renal transplantation; triple therapy Background. Sensitized kidney allograft recipients require special management to improve their outcome. One strategy is heavy immunosuppression with antilymphocyte antibodies. Controversy continues about lymphocytotoxic antibodies are known to be at a high Methods. In this study, we randomized sensitized renal risk of encountering several difficulties. These include transplant recipients, who received prophylactic treata positive crossmatch, a primary non-functioning alloment with or without antithymocyte globulin (ATG), graft, an acute rejection episode and, in the long-term, in addition to a standard triple regimen consisting of a reduced graft survival [1-3]. Many strategies have cyclosporin, steroids and azathioprine at ATG discontibeen designed to manage sensitized recipients; among nuation. The induction treatment consisted of a lowthese, the use of a heavy prophylactic immunosuppresdose ATG course over 10 days. Randomization was sion has been proposed, adding antilymphocyte globustratified on the maximum PRA, according to the five lin (ALG), antithymocyte globulin (ATG) or antifollowing classes: 5%\u003cPRA∏20%, 20%\u003cPRA∏40%, CD3 monoclonal antibodies (OKT3), in what are 40%\u003cPRA∏60%, 60%\u003cPRA∏80% and 80%\u003c named induction therapies. Although heavy immuno-PRA∏100%. suppression has been proved to be effective [4], the Results. Eighty nine patients were enrolled: 47 patients actual advantage of these induction therapies may be received ATG and 42 did not. ATG induction lowered questioned with regard to some other studies which the incidence of biopsy-proven acute rejection episodes have reported only a very modest effect on overall from 64 to 38%, increased 1 year graft survival from graft survival [5]. Protocols with antilymphocyte 76 to 89% and was associated with a higher 1 year antibodies have been designed mainly to delay the inulin clearance (37±15 vs 49±18 ml/min).

This study presents our experience in LA versus OA over the last 7 years in one university hospital in Lebanon and compares our results to the international ones. Method: A single center retrospective study was done including all patients aged less than 15 years who underwent appendectomy. A description of each operative technique is presented. Patients' characteristics, intraoperative finding, operative timing (OT), length of stay (LOS) and short term postoperative complications including surgical site infection (SSI) rate, intra-abdominal abscess formation (IAA) rate and reoperation rate were all studied. Statistical analysis was done using Chi-square or Fisher's exact test, as for continuous, Student's t test was used or one-way ANOVA in case of more than 2 categories. Result: Appendectomy was performed in 84 patients. 52 patients underwent OA through a Rocky Davis incision, and 32 patients underwent a LA. We found an advantage of LA over OA in reducing SSI, otherwise both approaches were similar. Conclusion: In accordance with international results, in our experience, LA is superior to OA only with regards to SSI.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/88353507" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="3c84043c6a44ef63e56bfc584556fbe7" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":92342134,"asset_id":88353507,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/92342134/download_file?st=MTczMzk1ODAyOSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="140393508" href="https://neu.academia.edu/NabilDiab">Nabil Diab</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="140393508" type="text/json">{"id":140393508,"first_name":"Nabil","last_name":"Diab","domain_name":"neu","page_name":"NabilDiab","display_name":"Nabil Diab","profile_url":"https://neu.academia.edu/NabilDiab","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_88353507 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="88353507"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 88353507, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_88353507", });

We found an advantage of LA over OA in reducing SSI, otherwise both approaches were similar. Conclusion: In accordance with international results, in our experience, LA is superior to OA only with regards to SSI.","publication":"International Journal of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine","publication_with_fallback":"International Journal of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":92342134,"asset_id":88353507,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/92342134/thumbnails/1.jpg","download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/92342134/ptpmcrender-libre.pdf?1665593751=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DPediatric_appendectomy_in_the_developing.pdf\u0026Expires=1733884396\u0026Signature=cdSQ6wmiF0XzYZaT4RCTuM8yLdmjTMhJT9Up9HGnO6ir2C0WJRrEycHBdy7jEEDbDXYzoKEjXvfIKmcxHMtmhmYHYTiqpThuMVc9UyNRVelMJ8CPTYg011LIshIQ8i7PW-NMJomiuYEyXMfbvbBFqw8XHkQZ4crUiKLheoN~1Zq22IgVZpHzyZjOxe6a9w-dde27aHs7fjy~wENE2U-xUE8DxN1aXy1CA08QGs~PtDw8WGTw~ie0UvA5U4z5zyBkTJ0KnC2WqPmxtwIquOFhlZn-zdATUBHnfV0vEIsg7in9vrg~sAI31UQjfVPX5TCzbd7Ke04CLBuxuVltfgvReA__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA","download_file_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/92342134/download_file?st=MTczMzk1ODAyOSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","full_thumbnail_url":"https://0.academia-photos.com/attachment_thumbnails/92342134/mini_magick20221012-1-1fjgzk0.png?1665593579"}],"downloadable_attachments_with_full_thumbnails":[{"id":92342134,"asset_id":88353507,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/92342134/thumbnails/1.jpg","download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/92342134/ptpmcrender-libre.pdf?1665593751=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DPediatric_appendectomy_in_the_developing.pdf\u0026Expires=1733884396\u0026Signature=cdSQ6wmiF0XzYZaT4RCTuM8yLdmjTMhJT9Up9HGnO6ir2C0WJRrEycHBdy7jEEDbDXYzoKEjXvfIKmcxHMtmhmYHYTiqpThuMVc9UyNRVelMJ8CPTYg011LIshIQ8i7PW-NMJomiuYEyXMfbvbBFqw8XHkQZ4crUiKLheoN~1Zq22IgVZpHzyZjOxe6a9w-dde27aHs7fjy~wENE2U-xUE8DxN1aXy1CA08QGs~PtDw8WGTw~ie0UvA5U4z5zyBkTJ0KnC2WqPmxtwIquOFhlZn-zdATUBHnfV0vEIsg7in9vrg~sAI31UQjfVPX5TCzbd7Ke04CLBuxuVltfgvReA__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA","download_file_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/92342134/download_file?st=MTczMzk1ODAyOSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","full_thumbnail_url":"https://0.academia-photos.com/attachment_thumbnails/92342134/mini_magick20221012-1-1fjgzk0.png?1665593579"}],"has_pdf":true,"has_fulltext":true,"page_count":4,"ordered_authors":[{"id":140393508,"first_name":"Nabil","last_name":"Diab","domain_name":"neu","page_name":"NabilDiab","display_name":"Nabil Diab","profile_url":"https://neu.academia.edu/NabilDiab","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":647,"name":"Surgery","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Surgery","nofollow":false},{"id":26327,"name":"Medicine","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Medicine","nofollow":false},{"id":988280,"name":"Abscess","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Abscess","nofollow":false}],"publication_year":2019,"publication_year_with_fallback":2019,"paper_rank":null,"all_time_views":9,"active_discussion":{}}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_88353512" data-work_id="88353512" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/88353512/A_rare_cause_of_neonatal_intussusception_Considering_it_might_reduce_the_mortality_A_case_report_and_a_review_of_the_literature">A rare cause of neonatal intussusception.

This treatment modality is the best option to manage End Stage Kidney Disease on peritoneal dialysis in those patients.","publication":"Urology Case Reports","publication_with_fallback":"Urology Case Reports","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":92342140,"asset_id":88353515,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/92342140/thumbnails/1.jpg","download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/92342140/j.eucr.2020.10119820221012-1-f74fs-libre.pdf?1665593749=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DRetroperitoneoscopic_bilateral_nephrecto.pdf\u0026Expires=1733961630\u0026Signature=DJfO4lgsA1G6WKbz6NAB69TnGaHjI-wL~58-6cI3htAP1kFR5y~ZXhLbbHc9E7GajYaiFey8ye-6xRdMOdaEaQS~npID-Gb0ozrGOL1ysTICMCnsSKuTs1nldoQ3UUcRFYHVwCX9fyBdb85XSgXuQKULZtb0h4DmrT0AAE3f4J5aPMIGDLBRad8XISRJIV5efC7DsHEPys1RYlzDsUuwuiC0UBkg8-uMA9HDYcSNoDI4nt5ZZDg3TaozODNdpSvP1FfRyJKCYACRpNHdkkQzpDKFTTw8teVdHZ2YjEqo0OHaoDHNp5qd0MEtX817HEhP0iByfvksX4Wl6GyBMcBuRg__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA","download_file_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/92342140/download_file?st=MTczMzk1ODAzMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","full_thumbnail_url":"https://0.academia-photos.com/attachment_thumbnails/92342140/mini_magick20221012-1-15z8rfj.png?1665593585"}],"downloadable_attachments_with_full_thumbnails":[{"id":92342140,"asset_id":88353515,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"scribd_thumbnail_url":"https://attachments.academia-assets.com/92342140/thumbnails/1.jpg","download_url":"https://d1wqtxts1xzle7.cloudfront.net/92342140/j.eucr.2020.10119820221012-1-f74fs-libre.pdf?1665593749=\u0026response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3DRetroperitoneoscopic_bilateral_nephrecto.pdf\u0026Expires=1733961630\u0026Signature=DJfO4lgsA1G6WKbz6NAB69TnGaHjI-wL~58-6cI3htAP1kFR5y~ZXhLbbHc9E7GajYaiFey8ye-6xRdMOdaEaQS~npID-Gb0ozrGOL1ysTICMCnsSKuTs1nldoQ3UUcRFYHVwCX9fyBdb85XSgXuQKULZtb0h4DmrT0AAE3f4J5aPMIGDLBRad8XISRJIV5efC7DsHEPys1RYlzDsUuwuiC0UBkg8-uMA9HDYcSNoDI4nt5ZZDg3TaozODNdpSvP1FfRyJKCYACRpNHdkkQzpDKFTTw8teVdHZ2YjEqo0OHaoDHNp5qd0MEtX817HEhP0iByfvksX4Wl6GyBMcBuRg__\u0026Key-Pair-Id=APKAJLOHF5GGSLRBV4ZA","download_file_url":"https://www.academia.edu/attachments/92342140/download_file?st=MTczMzk1ODAzMCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&","full_thumbnail_url":"https://0.academia-photos.com/attachment_thumbnails/92342140/mini_magick20221012-1-15z8rfj.png?1665593585"}],"has_pdf":true,"has_fulltext":true,"page_count":3,"ordered_authors":[{"id":140393508,"first_name":"Nabil","last_name":"Diab","domain_name":"neu","page_name":"NabilDiab","display_name":"Nabil Diab","profile_url":"https://neu.academia.edu/NabilDiab","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":647,"name":"Surgery","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Surgery","nofollow":false},{"id":26327,"name":"Medicine","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Medicine","nofollow":false},{"id":447741,"name":"Peritoneal Dialysis","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Peritoneal_Dialysis","nofollow":false},{"id":1190789,"name":"Nephrectomy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Nephrectomy","nofollow":false}],"publication_year":2020,"publication_year_with_fallback":2020,"paper_rank":null,"all_time_views":4,"active_discussion":{}}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_88353521" data-work_id="88353521" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/88353521/Another_indication_for_a_transanal_pull_through_surgical_management_of_rectal_atresia_a_case_report">Another indication for a transanal pull-through: surgical management of rectal atresia—a case report</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Background Rectal atresia is a very rare cause of neonatal intestinal obstruction.

In a cohort of 399 renal transplantation (RT) recipients, 117 of whom (29%) were HCV-positive, we selected all patients diagnosed as having membranous GN or type I MPGN by graft biopsy. The prevalence of MGN was 16/399 (4%) with three recurrences, and 13 de novo cases. Only 5/16 (31%) were HCV+, not different from the general RT population. Five patients had an outcome of graft failure after 43 months. Conversely, there were 15 cases of type I MPGN (two recurrences, 13 de novo) but with eight HCV+ recipients (53%, P=0.02). Considering only the French patients, prevalence was 44% vs 12% in the French RT population (P=0.006). Eight patients had graft rejection after 59 months (five HCV+). In this type I MPGN subgroup, there were two positive cryoglobulins, two rheumatoid factors and four hypocomplementaemias. In conclusion, there is a clear association between HCV infection and the occurrence of type I MPGN hi the allograft hi renal transplantation, with terminal renal failure as an outcome.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/93791521" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="898fad567f5616d9566708ccc7a6d547" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":96431699,"asset_id":93791521,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/96431699/download_file?st=MTczMzk1ODAzMSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="140393508" href="https://neu.academia.edu/NabilDiab">Nabil Diab</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="140393508" type="text/json">{"id":140393508,"first_name":"Nabil","last_name":"Diab","domain_name":"neu","page_name":"NabilDiab","display_name":"Nabil Diab","profile_url":"https://neu.academia.edu/NabilDiab","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_93791521 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="93791521"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 93791521, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_93791521", });

In a cohort of 399 renal transplantation (RT) recipients, 117 of whom (29%) were HCV-positive, we selected all patients diagnosed as having membranous GN or type I MPGN by graft biopsy. The prevalence of MGN was 16/399 (4%) with three recurrences, and 13 de novo cases. Only 5/16 (31%) were HCV+, not different from the general RT population. Five patients had an outcome of graft failure after 43 months. Conversely, there were 15 cases of type I MPGN (two recurrences, 13 de novo) but with eight HCV+ recipients (53%, P=0.02). Considering only the French patients, prevalence was 44% vs 12% in the French RT population (P=0.006). Eight patients had graft rejection after 59 months (five HCV+). In this type I MPGN subgroup, there were two positive cryoglobulins, two rheumatoid factors and four hypocomplementaemias. In conclusion, there is a clear association between HCV infection and the occurrence of type I MPGN hi the allograft hi renal transplantation, with terminal renal failure as an outcome.","publication":"Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation","publication_with_fallback":"Nephrology Dialysis

We report two further cases with the sinus extending from the overlying skin through the rectus fascia to the anterior bladder wall. In our first case the opening of the sinus was just 3 cm below the midline inferior to the navel, with concentric, thin smoothmuscle layers. This lesion may represent a mild forme fruste of a midline closure defect. In our second case, the sinus was lined by transitional epithelium in its distal portion with stratified squamous epithelium near the surface, and was also surrounded by a thin smooth-muscle layer. These two cases may represent a variant of epispadiac urethral duplication. Our observations suggest that congenital prepubic sinus and urethral duplication are related embryologically.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/104085942" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="ac82827d61086ce8cd783fca2fefbdb9" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":103906964,"asset_id":104085942,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/103906964/download_file?st=MTczMzk1ODAzMSw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="140393508" href="https://neu.academia.edu/NabilDiab">Nabil Diab</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="140393508" type="text/json">{"id":140393508,"first_name":"Nabil","last_name":"Diab","domain_name":"neu","page_name":"NabilDiab","display_name":"Nabil Diab","profile_url":"https://neu.academia.edu/NabilDiab","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_104085942 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="104085942"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 104085942, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_104085942", });

We report two further cases with the sinus extending from the overlying skin through the rectus fascia to the anterior bladder wall. In our first case the opening of the sinus was just 3 cm below the midline inferior to the navel, with concentric, thin smoothmuscle layers. This lesion may represent a mild forme fruste of a midline closure defect. In our second case, the sinus was lined by transitional epithelium in its distal portion with stratified squamous epithelium near the surface, and was also surrounded by a thin smooth-muscle layer. These two cases may represent a variant of epispadiac urethral duplication. Our observations suggest that congenital prepubic sinus and urethral duplication are related embryologically.","publication":"European Journal of Pediatric
