Atypical hemolytic and uremic syndrome in Algeria: diagnostic difficulties and therapeutic constraints
Nephrol Ther. 2023 Nov 2;19(6):483-490. doi: 10.1684/ndt.2023.37.ABSTRACTAtypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (aHUS) is a systemic disease due to dysregulation of the alternate complement pathway, mortality is estimated at 10% and more than 50% of patients progress to end-stage renal disease. The aim of this study was to summarize the clinical data and biological results as well as the evolution and management of patients with aHUS seen over a period of four years in one specialized department in Algeria. Our study was observational and longitudinal. The inclusion criteria were: the clinical-biological triad of aHUS and age ...

Classification of bottled waters marketed and consumed in Algeria through statistical approaches
J Water Health. 2023 Oct;21(10):1489-1502. doi: 10.2166/wh.2023.142.ABSTRACTThe main objective of this work consists of classifying 30 brands of water bottled and marketed in Algeria, based on their physicochemical compositions and their comparison with some foreign brands recognized in their countries or on a world scale. Relevant to this, descriptive statistics, as well as hierarchical ascendant classification (HAC) and principal component analysis (PCA), were used to analyse the data. The results of this study highlighted a similarity between some Algerian brands and other foreign brands of water in terms of mineral con...
