Recent progress in molecular genetics has strongly influenced nephrology. Gene mutations have been identified which cause various monogenic hereditary renal diseases including Alport syndrome, autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, and tubular transporter disorders. The data obtained will be useful not only to develop new methods of diagnosis and treatment of such particular diseases but also to expand the knowledge of renal physiology and pathophysiology. In addition, genetic factors have been investigated which are involved in the development and progression of more common renal diseases such as IgA nephropathy and diabetic nephropathy. There have also been great advances in molecular studies of experimental renal diseases such as Heymann nephritis and in the use of transgenic and knockout mice. In this review we focused on the important achievements made recently in the field of molecular nephrology.

We evaluated the influence of the Hanshin-Awaji earthquake on the patients in our internal medicine department. After the initial rush of patients with injury, the number of respiratory diseases, largely pneumonia, increased within one month. This same event, however, seemed to decrease attacks among asthma patients. During the following three months, the number of peptic ulcer patients increased: 39.5% had a giant gastric ulcer and 34.8% had bleeding-complications. Diabetic control of outpatients became worse after the earthquake. It is important to recognize that various disorders involving physical and psychological problems develop at different stages after a large-scale disaster.

A 66-year-old woman was admitted to the hospital with a cerebral hemorrhage. An echocardiogram showed severe left ventricular hypokinesis and a left ventricular thrombus. An electrocardiogram showed ST segment elevation in the precordial leads. The patient's creatine kinase level was elevated. A follow-up echocardiogram performed 1 month after admission showed normalization of left ventricular wall motion and disappearance of the thrombus. The results of thallium myocardial scintigraphy, coronary arteriography, and left ventriculography performed 1 month after admission were normal, and the patient was discharged without clinical sequelae. The cause of the patient's left ventricular dysfunction was believed to be not myocardial infarction or myocarditis, but a massive adrenergic discharge due to the cerebral hemorrhage.

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIG) is a pathologic condition associated with critical illnesses, including sepsis. Recent studies have suggested that endogenous cytokines and leukocytes are involved in major roles of its pathophysiology. We report a case of sepsis-induced DIG due to pneumonia that was associated with diffuse and selective thrombosis in pulmonary arteries, yielding to sudden death from pulmonary massive embolism. This report suggests that the selective and lethal pulmonary thromboembolism progresses under the standard therapies in sepsis-induced DIG.

A case of reversible acute renal failure (ARF) following binge drinking together with the transient use of a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) is described. After binge drinking, the patient experienced hyperdipsia, and the volume of his urine decreased. Subsequently, he took an NSAID to relieve systemic joint pain associated with low grade fever, and then he had complete anuria. One day after taking the NSAID, he visited our hospital, and was found to have severe renal dysfunction accompanied by severe liver damage (blood urea nitrogen and creatinine concentrations were 57 and 5.4 mg/dl, respectively). The impaired renal function progressed over the first three hospital days, as reflected by an elevated creatinine concentration to 11.6 mg/dl. Nine treatment sessions of hemodialysis were, therefore, required to recover the loss of renal function. The present case suggests that binge drinking may be a potential risk factor for ARF in the presence of NSAIDs.

A 38-year-old male with panhypopituitarism due to Rathke's cleft cyst associated with a pituitary oncocytoma is reported. The presenting signs were general myalgia and slight fatigue. Endocrine examinations revealed panhypopituitarism. Magnetic resonance imaging disclosed a suprasellar cystic lesion of the pituitary gland. Cytological examination demonstrated ciliated cells in the mucinous fluid flowing from the cyst during the pituitary operation. A pituitary oncocytoma with randomly scattered S-100 immunoreactive cells was found upon histologic examination of the nodular tissue curettaged from the internal wall of the cyst. These results suggest that the pituitary adenoma was derived from folliculostellate cells included in the Rathke's cleft wall.

A 23-year-old man was suffering from high fever and general fatigue 6 months before admission. The levels of serum Ca and intact-parathyroid hormone (PTH) were low. His brain computed tomography (CT) revealed marked calcifications of the basal ganglia, and pelvis magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed inflammation of his seminal vesicle. His Candida antigen liter was high and antibiotic therapy was unsuccessful. High fever persisted despite fluconazole treatment, however he recovered after treatment with fluconazole and vitamin D (alfacalcitol). Idiopathic hypoparathyroidism hinders the activation of vitamin D via insufficient PTH secretion, and vitamin D has some immunological effects. His decreased natural killer (NK) cell activity improved after alfacalcitol treatment. We suggest the possible immunological effects of vitamin D in this fungal infection.

A rare case of mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) with acute polyradiculoneuropathy is reported. A 23-year-old woman presented with high body temperature, arthralgia and a headache, and developed gait disturbance two weeks later. She had many clinical features common to patients with MCTD. Her neurological manifestations were diagnosed as acute polyradiculoneuropathy based on the clinical picture, combined with supportive ancillary data, including cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis, electrophysiological evaluation, sural nerve biopsy, peroneus brevis muscle biopsy, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Her neurologic deficits, as well as associated laboratory findings, were improved by corticosteroid therapy.
