18 Lovely Basement Membrane Thickness

basement membrane thickness P value co 05was consideredstatisticallysignificant Linearregressionanalysis was used to assess the relationshipsbetweenage and the thickness of the basement membrane and the calibre of the airway lumen and the thickness of the basement membrane basement membrane thickness ncbi nlm nih gov Indian J Nephrol v 18 2 2008 AprThe GBM and TBM width were also found to increase with HbA1c levels but not with fasting and postprandial glucose levels indicating the influence of consistent glycemic control in the occurrence of basement membrane thickness

ncbi nlm nih gov Journal List Tissue Eng Part AWe followed up this observation quantitatively by taking measurements of basement membrane thickness on each of our high magnification 31 000 transmission electron micrographs Results detailing the average basement membrane thickness are shown in Figure 5 The mean basement membrane thickness of aorta was the greatest at 506 14 nm basement membrane thickness of glomerular basement membrane GBM thickness in children with minimal change nephrotic syndrome were made on electron micrographs of 43 biopsy specimens obtained from 35 children aged 1 13 years of whom 13 were in remission at the time of biopsy basement membrane nephropathy TBMN is the most common cause of persistent hematuria in children and adults the other main causes being IgA nephropathy and Alport syndrome 1 3 In addition to hematuria patients with TBMN usually have minimal proteinuria normal renal function and uniformly thinned glomerular basement membranes GBM as determined by electron microscopy

basement membrane thickness increases with surface area No difference in GBM thickness was observed between males and females The term in age 2 also was found to be non significant P 0 329 and was removed from the regression model basement membrane thickness basement membrane nephropathy TBMN is the most common cause of persistent hematuria in children and adults the other main causes being IgA nephropathy and Alport syndrome 1 3 In addition to hematuria patients with TBMN usually have minimal proteinuria normal renal function and uniformly thinned glomerular basement membranes GBM as determined by electron microscopy tandfonline doi full 10 3109 02713683 2010 514659Vascular basement membrane BM thickening is a fundamental structural alteration of small blood vessels in diabetes Over two decades of research has established hyperglycemia as the primary causal factor mediating this alteration Published in Current Eye Research 2010Authors Sayon Roy John Ha Kyle Trudeau Ekaterina BeglovaAffiliation Boston UniversityAbout Basement Diabetic retinopathy Basement membrane Microangiopathy
