Beaded Coronary Aneurysm in Kawasaki Disease
Kawasaki disease (KD) is a febrile systemic vasculitis that mainly affects children aged under five years old. The aneurysm formation of the coronary artery is the most common complication after KD. We report a case with multiple coronary aneurysm formation and a special pattern ofbeaded aneurysm after KD and review the form ofcoronary aneurysms in different diseases
Reappraisal of Vegf in the Pathogenesis of Kawasaki Disease
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is an important factor in mediating the inflammation of Kawasaki disease (KD). The literature regarding the relationship between VEGF and KD is sparse. The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation of VEGF and KD. In a prospective study of 42 Taiwanese KD patients (18.9 ± 12.2 months, M/F 22/20) treated with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), a series of VEGF levels was measured from the ac…
Ethnic Kawasaki Disease Risk Associated with Blood Mercury and Cadmium in U.S. Children
Kawasaki disease (KD) primarily affects children <5 years of age (75%-80%) and is currently the leading cause of acquired heart disease in developed nations. Even when residing in the West, East Asian children are 10 to 20 times more likely to develop KD. We hypothesized cultural variations influencing pediatric mercury (Hg) exposure from seafood consumption may mediate ethnic KD risk among children in the United States. Hospitalization rates of …
