[Surgical treatment of primary hyperparathyroidism with intraoperative iPTH determination].
Primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) is most frequently caused by a solitary adenoma. Surgical intervention has a high cure rate, particularly when associated with a fast intraoperative intact parathyroid hormone (IOPTH) assay.to evaluate the performance and accuracy when applying this technique.we conducted a retrospective study of the last 20 patients ...

A Giant Parathyroid Adenoma Presenting as Coughs and Dyspnea in a Young Woman: A Case Report
ABSTRACT A parathyroid adenoma is defined as a benign tumor in the parathyroid glands. A type of parathyroid adenoma is giant parathyroid adenoma that weighs > 3.5 g and has a size of more than 2 cm. A 37‐year‐old woman presented with coughs and dyspnea without fever, hemoptysis, and weight loss. Examination of the patient revealed a diffusely enlarged

ABSTRACT Patients with chronic kidney disease, and particularly those under hemodialysis, are prone to develop cardiovascular complications, mostly due to the exacerbation of vascular calcification. Vascular calcification relies on the transdifferentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells into calcifying cells.

Objective To explore the relationship between atrial fibrillation and the Klotho G‐395A polymorphism in patients on maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). Methods The study included 120 MHD patients (persistent atrial fibrillation, n = 30; paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, n = 30; normal sinus rhythm, n = 60) and 120 control individuals. Klotho G‐395A mutations

THE EFFECT OF PARATHORMONE ON LEFT VENTRICULAR HYPERTROPHY IN CHRONIC HEMODIALYSIS PATIENT
Secondary hyperparathyroidism, high phosphate (PO4) and calcium phospltate product (CaxP04 is highly prevalent among patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) and is associated with increased cardiac mortality risk in hemodialysis (HD) patients.

Alkaline Phosphatase: The Poor Man's iPTH - An Affordable Approach to Bone Health Assessment
This review delves into relatively less discussed role ofalkaline phosphatase (ALP) as an accessible alternative tointact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) in the context of bonehealth assessment, particularly focussing on its potentialboon for underprivileged individuals with chronic kidneydisease (CKD) in South Asia.

Bone Biopsy Results in Chronic Kidney Disease: a Single-Center Experience
Background/Aims: Although bone histology remains the diagnostic standard in renal osteodystrophy (ROD), biomarkers are used more commonly. Data comparing bone biopsy results and biomarkers of bone metabolism remain sparse.
