Diagnostic biases are potentially life‐threatening. We present a case of extreme hypercalcemia falsely diagnosed as premature ventricular complexes attributed to heavy coffee consumption, while symptoms and electrocardiographic findings of hypercalcemia were disregarded. Abstract Severe hypercalcemia has an arrhythmogenic effect. We present a case of a

On the Feasibility of Indoor Broadband Secondary Access to 960-1215 MHz Aeronautical Spectrum [PDF]
In this paper, we analyze the feasibility of indoor broadband service provisioning using secondary spectrum access to the 960-1215 MHz band, primarily allocated to the distance measuring equipment (DME) system for aeronautical navigation. We propose a practical secondary sharing scheme customized to the characteristics of the DME.

Measurement of Insulin Resistance in Cats With Chronic Kidney Disease
Cats diagnosed with stage 3 or 4 chronic kidney disease were examined to see whether they had insulin resistance by looking at their glucose and insulin values. According to the results, it was found that there was an impairment of insulin secretion in cats with chronic kidney disease .

Leptin regulates parathyroid hormone secretion through CaSR‐ERK1/2 signaling
Interactions between adipose tissue, parathyroid glands, and kidneys mediated by leptin, PTH, and 1,25(OH)2D3. Leptin, predominantly secreted by adipocytes, directly stimulates PTH secretion by inhibiting the CasR/pERK1/2 signaling, lifting CasR‐mediated suppression of PTH secretion. Elevated PTH may affect leptin production.

Cinacalcet in peritoneal dialysis patients: one-center experience
Introduction: Secondary hyperparathyroidism is the target of several therapeutic strategies, including the use of cinacalcet. Most studies were done only in hemodialysis patients, with few data from peritoneal dialysis patients.

Factors associated with subendocardial ischemia risk in patients on hemodialysis
Introduction: Bone metabolism disorder (BMD) and vascular dysfunction contribute to excess cardiovascular mortality observed in hemodialysis patients. Vascular dysfunction, a new marker of atherosclerosis, can play a role in this risk.
