Unexpected-Primary/permeability factor (pf) associated FSGS in an older slightly obese man with renal mass + proteinuria. I was thinking tumor associated-membranous nephropathy or sec FSGS. LM=1 FSGS lesion out of 30 glom, diffuse foot process effacement, IF=neg. Fits with pfFSGS

"Patients with SLE with low-level proteinuria may have significant lupus- or non-lupus-related kidney disease with management implications"... kidney biopsy should be considered #renalpath https://t.co/GpqGsDnDz2

Schistosomiasis-associated cystitis. Urothelium may show a wide range of reactive, hyperplastic, and metaplastic changes. The credit goes to one of my smart colleagues who diagnosed and shared the case. #gupath #bladder #pathology

A SHINING example of why we tell you to be extra cautious while driving over bridges/overpasses during freezing temps. The ground keeps many roadways warm, but cold air gets under bridges! This is Lapeer Rd bridge over I-69 in downtown Flint this morning. @GMA @Ginger_Zee #miwx

We have been blessed to be able to learn from and work with Dr Leenen, who was my mentor and PhD supervisor. Dr Leenen, I am sure we just missed one of the best physician-scientists in Canada but at the same time I know you will be having a wonderful time. https://t.co/LCykBldo74

10. Want to see an amazing video? In the past, I've posted footage of an elephant giving birth & her herd celebrating & protecting her/her baby

In this clip, a herd is surprised by the arrival of a newborn and they celebrate joyously

BTW this is a group of former @DSWT orphans
