Dual-isotope subtraction scintigraphy and SPECT-CT for preoperative localization of parathyroid adenomas. [PDF]
Abstract Context Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is often caused by a parathyroid adenoma (PTA). Subtraction scintigraphy with 123I and 99mTc –MIBI SPECT‐CT, and neck ultrasound examination as a hybrid scan (HS) can be used to localize the PTA in order to promote minimally invasive surgery.

Rare But Risky: Clinical Impacts of Pneumothorax After Thyroidectomy and Parathyroidectomy
Postoperative pneumothorax (PPTX) is rare after thyroidectomy or parathyroidectomy, occurring in up to 0.10% of cases. However, it is associated with increased risks of all‐cause mortality, adverse respiratory events, and healthcare utilization rates in up to 1 year after surgery, deeming PPTX as a potential marker of increased postoperative ...

ABSTRACT Aim This study aims to investigate whether the Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23) modulates the electrical activity of sinoatrial (SAN) cells. The canonical function of FGF23 is to regulate body phosphorus and calcium homeostasis by activating the FGF1 receptors (FGFR1)/α‐Klotho complex in the kidney and parathyroid glands.

ABSTRACT An eight‐year‐old male red‐handed howler monkey (Alouatta belzebul) underwent whole‐body computed tomography for gastrointestinal signs. Quantitative CT of the lumbar vertebrae opportunistically revealed severe bone hypoattenuation, demineralization, and deteriorated trabecular architecture.
