Synchronous Primary Hyperparathyroidism and Polycythemia Vera: A Case Report and Literature Review
ABSTRACT Polycythemia vera (PV) is a chronic myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by increased erythrocytes and commonly associated with JAK2 mutations. Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), which is often caused by a parathyroid adenoma, is a common cause of hypercalcemia.

Brown Tumors Mimicking Skeletal Metastases: A Diagnostic Pitfall in Primary Hyperparathyroidism
ABSTRACT Brown tumors are rare but important manifestations of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). These benign, fibrotic, and erosive bony lesions result from localized rapid osteoclastic activity driven by excessive parathyroid hormone levels. Although brown tumors are considered one of the most pathognomonic signs of PHPT, they are infrequently ...

Noncrystalline uric acid inhibits proteoglycan and glycosaminoglycan synthesis in distal tubular epithelial cells (MDCK) [PDF]
Hyperuricemia is associated with renal stones, not only consisting of uric acid (UrAc) but also of calcium oxalate (CaOx). Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are well-known inhibitors of growth and aggregation of CaOx crystals.
