Post-Gastrectomy Osteomalacia Mimicking Rheumatologic Disorders: A Case Report
Osteomalacia is one of the post-gastrectomy complications resulting from the impaired absorption of vitamin D and calcium.1 Vitamin D deficiency or osteomalacia can be diagnosed by clinical, biochemical and radiographic parameters, and bone biopsy.

Introduction Severe proximal myopathy can occasionally be the first presenting complaint of patients with osteomalacia. This may lead to investigations and misdiagnosis of a neuromuscular disease, rather than a metabolic bone disease.

In iron‐refractory iron deficiency anaemia, inappropriately elevated hepcidin levels impair enteral iron absorption and iron release from macrophages by interacting with ferroportin. Oral iron supplements (containing ~30 mg Fe2+ per 100 mg) are generally ineffective due to this hepcidin–ferroportin interaction although, in some cases, this can be ...

ABSTRACT Objectives In bioarchaeology, the concepts of resilience and frailty, and their quantification through indices, have gathered significant attention. This study is the first to apply, evaluate, and compare skeletal frailty indices and aims to trace frailty over time while identifying methodological challenges in their use on a sample ...

Abstract Contributions made by the dystrophin‐associated glycoprotein complex (DGC) to cell–cell and cell‐extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions are vital in development, homeostasis and pathobiology. This review explores how DGC functions may extend to skeletal pathophysiology by appraising the known roles of its major ECM ligands, and likely ...
