Efficacy of phenobarbital is maintained after exposure to mild‐to‐moderate seizures in neonates

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract To study the relationship between the delay in treatment and the efficacy of phenobarbital in neonates, we re‐analyzed data from the NEOLEV2 study. Continuous video EEG (cEEG) from patients treated with phenobarbital was reviewed by neurophysiologists who marked each seizure.

Usefulness of pre- and post-operative calcium and Vitamin D supplementation in prevention of hypocalcemia after total thyroidectomy: A randomized controlled trial

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2017
Background: Total thyroidectomy (TT) is a commonly performed surgery and postoperative hypocalcemia is a major detriment to early discharge. The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to ascertain the usefulness of routine pre- and post-operative ...

Instant Intraoperative Histopathological Assessment of Fresh Parathyroid Tissue: Higher Harmonic Generation Microscopy as a Potential Alternative to Frozen Section

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hypoparathyroidism is a complication associated with significant morbidity and results from inadvertent removal of the parathyroid during thyroid surgery. Therefore, intra‐operative identification of parathyroid tissue is essential to minimize the risk of hypoparathyroidism.

Vitamin D Deficiency as a Predictive Factor of Transient Hypocalcemia after Total Thyroidectomy

International Journal of Endocrinology, 2020
Background Total thyroidectomy (TT) is recommended in the treatment of malignant and benignant thyroid diseases, and, to date, transient hypocalcemia is the most frequent complication after the procedure.

Preoperative Vitamin D Supplementation to Reduce Hypocalcemia Following Total Thyroidectomy: Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Clinical Trials

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aims to determine whether preoperative supplementation of vitamin D reduces the incidence of hypocalcemia following total thyroidectomy. Methods Conducted in conformity with the PRISMA statement, a systematic review and meta‐analysis of randomized clinical trials (RCT) was performed assessing postoperative hypocalcemia and

Extreme hypercalcemia secondary to parathyroid adenoma obscured by excessive coffee consumption and premature ventricular complexes

Journal of General and Family Medicine, EarlyView.
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
