An Unusual Cause of Lymphadenopathy: Rosai Dorfman Disease in a 7-Year-Old Female Zambian Child: Case Report and Literature Review.

Rosai Dorfman disease (RDD) is a rare non-Langerhans histiocytic disorder, which belongs to the R group of the 2016 revised histiocytic classification.

Burden and Risk Factors of Contrast-Associated Acute Kidney Injury in Hospitalized Zambian Children: A Prospective Cohort Study at the University Teaching Hospitals.

Background: Contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CAAKI) is defined as acute kidney injury (AKI) occurring within 72 hours of administration of contrast media (CM) and is linked to adverse outcomes including longer hospital stay, increased hospital mortality, and a higher risk of chronic kidney disease in later life. Risk factors for the development of CAAKI in the Zambian pediatric population have not been well studied.

Objectives: The objective of this study was to assess the burden of CAAKI, ascertain its risk factors, and describe short-term outcomes in hospitalized children at the University Teaching Hospitals (UTH) undergoing contrast-enhanced radiological investigations.

A peculiarly characterised case of isoniazid-induced pellagra- 2 Ds and a C: a case report.

Niacin or tryptophan deficiency causes pellagra. Isoniazid interferes with the absorption of niacin and individuals on Isoniazid (INH) are at risk of pellagra. Isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT) is the administration of isoniazid to immunosuppressed individuals to prevent active tuberculosis (TB).
