Progress in research on osteoporosis secondary to SARS‐CoV‐2 infection
This review explores the potential mechanisms, complications, risk factors, and future research directions related to osteoporosis secondary to SARS‐CoV‐2 infection. Key mechanisms include an imbalance between osteoclast and osteoblast activity driven by direct viral effects on bone, inflammation, hypoxia, dysregulation of noncoding RNAs, and metabolic

Abstract The kidneys, by equilibrating the outputs to the inputs, are essential for maintaining the constant volume, pH, and electrolyte composition of the internal milieu. Inability to do so, either because of internal kidney dysfunction (primary alteration) or because of some external factors (secondary alteration), leads to pathologies of varying ...

Background To evaluate the efficacy of a sensitive, real-time tool for identification and protection for parathyroid glands during thyroidectomy. Methods Near-infrared (NIR) auto-fluorescence was measured intraoperatively from 20 patients undergoing ...

Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.

Thyroid nodules in children and adolescents: Investigation and management
Clinically detectable thyroid nodules are less common in children than adults. However, they are associated with an increased risk of malignancy. Therefore, thorough evaluation of paediatric thyroid nodules is necessary, and an understanding of the features associated with a higher risk of malignancy is important to guide management and referral ...

MORPHOLOGICAL AND HISTOLOGICAL STUDIES ON PARATHYROID GLAND OF ADULT MALE GOAT (CAPRA HIRCUS)
The parathyroid glands are essential endocrine glands as they produce hormones that maintain calcium within the normal level in blood through secretion of parathormone. The removal of parathyroid glands leads to fatal levels of hypocalcemia.

Parotid Gland MRI Segmentation Based on Swin-Unet and Multimodal Images [PDF]
Background and objective: Parotid gland tumors account for approximately 2% to 10% of head and neck tumors. Preoperative tumor localization, differential diagnosis, and subsequent selection of appropriate treatment for parotid gland tumors are critical.

A retrospective study on the incidence of hypocalcemia and number of parathyroid glands identified and preserved during thyroid surgeries [PDF]
Background: Hypocalcaemia remains a major post-operative complication of total thyroidectomy causing potentially severe symptoms and anxiety in affected patients and increasing hospitalization time.

THE FUNCTION OF THE PARATHYROID GLANDS
The remarkable advance in our knowledge of the organs of internal secretion which has taken place in recent years has brought much light on the parathyroid glands, but still their function and relations to the other organs are very obscure. Their anatomy is by this time fairly well known, particularly to surgeons to whom they have become an object of ...

ABSTRACT This work presents the pioneering development of an aptamer‐based electrochemical biosensor for real‐time monitoring of parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels, with a focus on intraoperative assessment during parathyroid surgery. It introduces, for the first time, the selection and characterization of aptamers targeting distinct segments of the PTH ...
