Hormonal adaptations to weight loss: Responses to an oral glucose load 4 weeks after obesity surgery and low‐energy diet

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims In addition to weight loss, obesity surgery (OS) leads to metabolic improvements that seem at least partly independent of weight loss and are also mediated by various endocrine pathways and the brain. For the first time, we compared the short‐term effects of weight loss achieved by either OS or a low‐energy diet (LED) on several hormonal ...

Atypical presentations of parathyroid gland pathology: A pictorial review

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Radiology Open, 2019
Primary hyperparathyroidism is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. It is in this day and age, an eminently treatable condition which relies heavily on preoperative imaging to localise enlarged parathyroid glands.

Selective parathyroid autotransplantation prevent permanent hypoparathyroidism after total thyroidectomy with central neck dissection

open access: yesFrontiers in Surgery
BackgroundThe impact of parathyroid gland autotransplantation on permanent hypoparathyroidism remains incompletely understood. This study aimed to ascertain how selective autotransplantation of parathyroid glands affects the occurrence of permanent ...

Characteristics of changes in bone mineral density and body composition in obesity patients after metabolic and bariatric surgery: A prospective cohort study

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims To explore the changes in bone mineral density (BMD) and body composition in patients after bariatric surgery using dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) and quantitative computed tomography (QCT), analyse the relationships between these changes and weight loss, and the correlations between the parameters of DXA and QCT.

Intraoperative identification of parathyroid glands by autofluorescence on total thyroidectomy – Does it really reduces post-operative hypocalcemia?

open access: yesSurgery in Practice and Science, 2020
Background: Intraoperative identification of parathyroid glands which remains largely dependent on the surgeon's expertise, is a major challenge in endocrine surgery and the most efficient way to reduce postoperative hypocalcemia and its important ...

Osteochondrosis in horses: An overview of genetic and other factors

open access: yesEquine 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)

open access: yesEquine 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 ...

Disorders of the parathyroid glands

open access: yesJournal 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
