Title: Hyponatremia, hypophosphatemia, and hypouricemia in a girl with macrophage activation syndrome. Cord-id: obpqogn4 Document date: 2006_1_1
ID: obpqogn4
Snippet: Macrophage activation syndrome, a life-threatening complication of rheumatic disorders, is accompanied by the overproduction of cytokines. We describe a girl with macrophage activation syndrome complicating systemic-onset juvenile arthritis who developed hyponatremia, hypophosphatemia, and hypouricemia associated with a high level of serum tumor necrosis factor alpha. Renal proximal tubule dysfunction was considered to be the cause, which may be attributable to tumor necrosis factor alpha.
