BACKGROUND Vitamin D supplementation is increasingly being used in higher doses in randomized controlled trials (RCTs). However, adverse events from very large annual doses of vitamin D have been shown in 2 RCTs, whereas in a third RCT, low-dose vitamin ...

The hypercalcemia of malignancy
The hypercalcemia of malignancy is mediated by complex and heterogeneous mechanisms. Once thought of as a simple paraneoplastic syndrome mediated by the effects of tumor production of PTH, it is now clear that multiple mechanisms are involved and that these mechanisms involve abnormalities in calcium transport in bone, kidney, and gut.

ABSTRACT Keratosis–ichthyosis–deafness (KID) syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant ectodermal disease caused by mutations in the GJB2 gene, which encodes the gap junction protein Connexin 26 (Cx26) located on Chr. 13q12.11. This study presents the first mortality analysis associated with KID syndrome, focusing on a case report of a Latin American ...

Transient hypercortisolism and symptomatic hyperthyroidism associated to primary hyperparathyroidism in an elderly patient: case report and literature review. [PDF]
Background: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is often found on routine blood tests, at a relatively asymptomatic stage. However many studies suggest different systemic effects related to PHPT, which could be enhanced by an abnormal cortisol release due

The Effect of Moderate Dietary Protein and Phosphate Restriction on Calcium-Phosphate Homeostasis in Healthy Older Cats [PDF]
Background Dietary phosphate and protein restriction decreases plasma PTH and FGF‐23 concentrations and improves survival time in azotemic cats, but has not been examined in cats that are not azotemic.

CONTEXT Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH) is a genetically heterogeneous condition resembling primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) but not curable by surgery; FHH types 1, 2, and 3 are due to loss-of-function mutations of the CASR, GNA11, or AP2S1

Case Report: PTHrP Related Hypercalcemia in Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma [PDF]
INTRODUCTION Hypercalcemia is commonly associated with solid tumor malignancies, but less often with hematologic malignancies. When present in hematologic malignancies, hypercalcemia is often secondary to overproduction of Vitamin D from the tumor cells.

Synthetic Biology‐Based Engineering Living Therapeutics for Antimicrobial Application
This perspective highlights synthetic biology‐driven antibacterial strategies, focusing on three innovative approaches: engineered bacteriophages for precision bacterial targeting, reprogrammed microbes that detect quorum‐sensing signals or metabolites to release antimicrobials, and engineering mammalian cells that recognize pathogen‐associated ...
