•Alström syndrome (AS), also called Alström–Hallgren syndrome
-It is a very rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder characterised by childhood obesity and multiple organ dysfunction.
-Symptoms include early-onset type 2 diabetes, cone-rod dystrophy resulting in blindness, sensorineural hearing loss and dilated cardiomyopathy.
-Hypergonadotrophic hypogonadism and hypothyroidism.
-Acanthosis nigricans resulting from hyperinsulinemia.

Remember:
-Weakness with preserved reflex: Myotonia dystrophica, also myasthenia.
-Weakness with loss of reflex: Neuropathy, also in case of myopathy, lower motor neuron lesion
-Weakness with exaggerated reflex: Upper motor neuron lesion (MND, typically in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis).

#Neurology
-Weakness worsens with activity: Myasthenia gravis.
-Weakness improves with activity: Eaton Lambert syndrome.
-Weakness worsen on exposure to heat (e.g. hot bath): Multiple sclerosis. Sudden ascending paralysis occurs in GBS.

Pattern of joint involvement:
-Distal interphalangeal joint (DIP) is involved in OA, psoriatic arthritis and gout.
-Proximal interphalangeal joint (PIP) and metacarpophalangeal joints (MCP) are involved in rheumatoid arthritis.
-First metatarsophalangeal (MTP) is involved in gout.
-Sacroiliac (SI) joint is involved in ankylosing spondylitis.
-Knee joint is involved in OA.
-Bilateral symmetrical joint involvement— RA
-Asymmetrical joint involvement (also usually bigger joints)—seronegative arthritis.
-Pain increased with activity, relieved by rest—mechanical arthritis.
-Pain worse with rest, improved by activity—inflammatory arthritis.
-Morning stiffness for more than 1 hour, relieved by activity indicates RA.
-Fleeting arthritis—Rheumatic fever, gonococcal arthritis, others (SLE, Lyme arthritis, meningococcal arthritis, drug reaction or serum sickness, IBD, Whipple’s disease).

•What is the blood pressure in Nephrotic syndrome?
-Usually blood pressure is normal, even low. If there is hypertension, usually it is secondary to underlying disease like SLE with renal involvement, polyarteritis nodosa, diabetic nephropathy or terminal stage of nephrotic syndrome.

Complications of Nephrotic syndrome:
In addition to doctor's lecture:
-Hyperlipidemia leading to atherosclerosis.
-Oliguric renal failure.
-May cause bilateral pleural effusion, pericardial effusion.
-Loss of thyroxin binding globulin, that causes low FT3 and FT4 which leads to hypothyroidism.
-Loss of transferrin and iron, resulting in iron deficiency anemia.
-Loss of vitamin D binding protein, leading to osteomalacia.

In CKD:
-Osteomalacia is secondary to deficiency of 1, 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol as kidney is unable to convert 25 hydroxycholecalciferol to 1,25 dihydroxycholecalciferol, due to deficiency of 1 α-hydroxylase enzyme.
