Hormonal adaptations to weight loss: Responses to an oral glucose load 4 weeks after obesity surgery and low‐energy diet

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims In addition to weight loss, obesity surgery (OS) leads to metabolic improvements that seem at least partly independent of weight loss and are also mediated by various endocrine pathways and the brain. For the first time, we compared the short‐term effects of weight loss achieved by either OS or a low‐energy diet (LED) on several hormonal ...

Characteristics of changes in bone mineral density and body composition in obesity patients after metabolic and bariatric surgery: A prospective cohort study

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims To explore the changes in bone mineral density (BMD) and body composition in patients after bariatric surgery using dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) and quantitative computed tomography (QCT), analyse the relationships between these changes and weight loss, and the correlations between the parameters of DXA and QCT.

Aetiological relevance of haematological, biochemical and endocrine parameters on equine odontoclastic tooth resorption and hypercementosis (EOTRH)

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The dental syndrome EOTRH is a painful, progressive dental disease with an unknown aetiology. The often painful nature of EOTRH emphasises the need for a better knowledge of the underlying pathogenic mechanism and risk factors. A comparative analysis of haematological, biochemical and endocrine values in EOTRH‐affected and non ...

Substernal oxyphil parathyroid adenoma producing PTHrP with hypercalcemia and normal PTH level

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2008
Background Parathyroid adenoma is the most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism. Preoperative serum calcium and intact-parathyroid hormone levels are the most useful diagnostic parameters that allow differentiating primary hyperparathyroidism from

Cardiovascular Biomarkers in Nocturnal Hemodialysis and Their Association With Physical Performance

open access: yesHemodialysis International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The cardiovascular biomarkers troponin T, N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide, and fibroblast growth factor 23 are elevated in hemodialysis patients and associated with an increased cardiovascular mortality risk. Nocturnal hemodialysis improves the fluid status in hemodialysis patients.

Lymphocyte Transformation Tests and Patch Tests to Identify Drugs Potentially Associated With Bullous Pemphigoid Development

open access: yesInternational Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is the most common autoimmune blistering disease, with a rising incidence in the elderly. BP is associated with multiple triggering factors, including drug exposure. However, evidence in this respect is limited, and the underlying immune mechanisms remain unknown.
