False-negative 99mTc-sestamibi scans: factors and outcomes in primary hyperparathyroidism

Endocrine Connections
Primary hyperparathyroidism has emerged as a prevalent endocrine disorder in clinical settings, necessitating in most cases, surgical intervention for the removal of the diseased gland.

Osteochondrosis in horses: An overview of genetic and other factors

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Osteochondrosis (OC) is a frequent manifestation of developmental orthopaedic disease, and its severe clinical presentation is known as OC dissecans (OCD). OC is defined as a disruption of the endochondral ossification process in the epiphyseal cartilage, and this disease has been reported in different mammalian species, including humans, dogs,

Aetiological relevance of haematological, biochemical and endocrine parameters on equine odontoclastic tooth resorption and hypercementosis (EOTRH)

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The dental syndrome EOTRH is a painful, progressive dental disease with an unknown aetiology. The often painful nature of EOTRH emphasises the need for a better knowledge of the underlying pathogenic mechanism and risk factors. A comparative analysis of haematological, biochemical and endocrine values in EOTRH‐affected and non ...

A Rare Case of Hypercalcemia from Mediastinal Ectopic Hyperparathyroidism

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease
Hypercalcemia is frequently attributed to primary hyperparathyroidism, commonly a result of parathyroid adenomas. Ectopic hyperparathyroidism is characterized by hyperfunctioning parathyroid tissue located outside of expected anatomical locations of ...

Disorders of the parathyroid glands

Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery, 2004
The three calcitropic hormones, parathyroid hormone (PTH), 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol and calcitonin are together responsible for calcium homeostasis in the mammal. Feline PTH is an 84 amino acid, single chain polypeptide with a molecular weight of 9449, which is secreted by the parathyroid glands. The principle secretagogue for PTH is a low plasma

Emerging roles for integrated stress response signaling in homeostasis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Integrated stress response (ISR), an evolutionarily conserved eukaryotic stress‐adaptive program in eukaryotes, has also been implicated in homeostatic functions. This review covers a broad body of literature and presents several homeostatic functions of ISR in the absence of stress: (a) developmental processes (morphogenesis, differentiation, aging), (

The Diagnostic Accuracy of High Resolution Ultrasound Imaging for Detection of Secondary Hyperparathyroidism in Patients with Chronic Renal Failure [PDF]

Ultrasound is one of the preferred modalities for evaluation of the parathyroid glands. This study was undertaken to determine the accuracy of high resolution ultrasound for secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients with chronic renal failure. From March

Clonal Composition of Human Adrenocortical Neoplasms [PDF]

, 1994
The mechanisms of tumorigenesis of adrenocortical neoplasms are still not understood. Tumor formation may be the result of spontaneous transformation of adrenocortical cells by somatic mutations.

Cardiovascular Biomarkers in Nocturnal Hemodialysis and Their Association With Physical Performance

Hemodialysis International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The cardiovascular biomarkers troponin T, N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide, and fibroblast growth factor 23 are elevated in hemodialysis patients and associated with an increased cardiovascular mortality risk. Nocturnal hemodialysis improves the fluid status in hemodialysis patients.
