1. Surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism
ABSTRACT Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a hypercalcemic disorder that occurs when one or more parathyroid glands produces excessive parathyroid hormone (PTH). PHPT is typically treated with surgery, and it remains the only definitive therapy, whose techniques have evolved over previous decades. Advances in preoperative localization exams and the intra

2. Medical management of primary hyperparathyroidism
ABSTRACT Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is an endocrine disorder resulting from the hyperfunction of one or more parathyroid glands, with hypersecretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH). It can be managed by parathyroidectomy (PTX) or non-surgically. Medical therapy with pharmacological agents is an alternative for those patients with asymptomatic PHPT who m

3. The added value of non-contrast 3-Tesla MRI for the pre-operative localization of hyperparathyroidism
Abstract Objective: We investigated the efficacy of non-contrast 3-Tesla MR imaging added to the combination of sestamibi with99mTc (MIBI) scintigraphy and Ultrasonography (US) for the pre-operative localization of Primary Hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) lesions. Methods: A total of 34 parathyroid glands, including nine normal glands, were examined with MIBI, U

4. Treatment options in hypoparathyroidism
ABSTRACT Hypoparathyroidism remains the single endocrine deficiency disease that is not habitually treated with the missing hormone. In this article, we aim to provide a review of the conventional approach and the novel therapies as well as an overview of the perspectives on the treatment of this rare condition. We conducted a literature review on the conven

5. Focus on adrenal and related causes of hypertension in childhood and adolescence: Rare or rarely recognized?
ABSTRACT High blood pressure (BP) is not restricted to adults; children and adolescents may also be affected, albeit less frequently. Aside from unfavorable environmental factors, such as obesity and sedentary life leading to early-onset essential hypertension (HT), several secondary causes must be investigated in the occasional hypertensive child/adolescent

6. Anabolic therapy for osteoporosis: update on efficacy and safety
ABSTRACT Anabolic agents for the treatment of osteoporosis increase bone density, improve bone strength, and reduce fracture risk. They are distinguished from antiresorptive drugs by their property of increasing osteoblastic bone formation. Teriparatide and abaloparatide are parathyroid hormone receptor agonists that increase bone remodeling with bone format

7. New treatments for rare bone diseases: hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia
Abstract Phosphorus is one of the most abundant minerals in the human body; it is required to maintain bone integrity and mineralization, in addition to other biological processes. Phosphorus is regulated by parathyroid hormone, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3], and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) in a complex set of processes that occur in the gu

8. An intricate case of sporadic pseudohypoparathyroidism type 1B with a review of literature
SUMMARY Pseudohypoparathyroidism comprehends an assorted group of genetically rare disorders that share end-organ resistance to parathyroid hormone. Genetic and epigenetic modifications on guanine nucleotide-binding protein alpha-stimulating gene locus are the most common underlying mechanisms associated with pseudohypoparathyroidism. Biochemical and molecul

9. Parathyroid hormone levels after parathyroidectomy for secondary hyperparathyroidism
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The parathormone level after parathyroidectomy in dialysis patients are of interest. Low levels may require cryopreserved tissue implantation; however, the resection is necessary in case of recurrence. We analyzed post parathyroidectomy parathormone levels in renal hyperparathyroidism. METHODS: Prospective observation of postoperative pa

10. Objective Quantification of Opioid Usage After Thyroid Surgery
Abstract Introduction It is well established that America is in the midst of an opioid crisis with 46 people dying every day from overdoses involving prescription opioids. In the last 2 years, multiple articles have been published indicating that the amount of opioid pain medication needed after discharge from thyroid and parathyroid surgery is low. Object

11. Prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in exclusively breastfed infants at a tertiary healthcare facility in Nairobi, Kenya
ABSTRACT Objective: To determine the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency (VDD) in exclusively breastfed infants at the Aga Khan University Hospital Nairobi, Kenya (AKUHN). The relationships between 25-hydroxyvitamin D; 25OHD, parathyroid hormone (PTH), maternal vitamin D supplementation, and sunlight exposure were also determined. Subjects and methods: Bloo

12. Shortening Postoperative Stay after Parathyroidectomy - A District General Hospital Experience
Abstract Introduction Historically, concerns about complications following parathyroid surgery, such as airway compromise, bleeding and hypocalcemia, have precluded its consideration as a short-stay surgical procedure. Recent advancements in perioperative care have resulted in several publications demonstrating that parathyroidectomy can be safely performed
