open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Oral lesions may represent the first sign of an underlying systemic disease. Giant cell lesions in the oral cavity should prompt investigation for hyperparathyroidism, as early recognition of brown tumors allows appropriate systemic management and may lead to lesion regression after treatment of the endocrine disorder.

Severe Hypertriglyceridemia Without Pancreatitis Causing Total Pseudohypocalcemia With True Ionized Symptomatic Hypocalcemia: A Diagnostic Pitfall

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Severe hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) can interfere with laboratory assays. HTG‐induced pancreatitis usually presents with hypocalcemia, but the effect of severe HTG, with no associated pancreatitis, on calcium levels is not well described. We present a 25‐year‐old male with severe HTG and diabetes who presented with generalized weakness, nausea ...

Delayed diagnosis of 3β‐HSD7 deficiency in adolescence: Two case reports and review of the literature

open access: yesJPGN Reports, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 236-241, May 2026.
Abstract Congenital bile acid synthesis defects (BASD), the most common of which is 3β‐hydroxy‐Δ5‐C27‐steroid dehydrogenase oxidoreductase (3β‐HSD7) deficiency, are a rare cause of fat‐soluble vitamin malabsorption. We describe a 14‐year‐old girl who presented at 14 months with a left distal femur fracture and failure to thrive.

We report a Palestinian female infant with a homozygous pathogenic EFL1 variant (c.3284G>A; p.Arg1095Gln) causing Shwachman–Diamond syndrome type 2 (SDS2). Beyond the classical features of pancytopenia, exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, and growth failure, the patient showed previously unreported ocular manifestations—stage 2–3 retinopathy of ...

Carrier screening in the reproductive setting—Are there medical implications for the heterozygote?—A guide for clinicians

open access: yesPregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn
