Objective assessment of functional and motor-cognitive outcomes among asymptomatic primary hyperparathyroidism patients undergoing parathyroidectomy using wearable technologies: a pilot study towards better informed clinical decision-making [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
For the past 40 years, most patients with Primary Hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) have presented with the asymptomatic form of PHPT. Despite the dominance of the asymptomatic PHPT phenotype, current National Institutes of Health (NIH) indications for ...

Alkaline phosphatases in the complex chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Alkaline phosphatases (APs) remove the phosphate (dephosphorylation) needed in multiple metabolic processes (from many molecules such as proteins, nucleotides, or pyrophosphate). Therefore, APs are important for bone mineralization but paradoxically they

Is 18F-fluorocholine-positron emission tomography/computerized tomography a new imaging tool for detecting hyperfunctioning parathyroid glands in primary or secondary hyperparathyroidism?

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2014
CONTEXT Preoperative ultrasonography and scintigraphy using (99m)Tc-sestamibi are commonly used to localize abnormal parathyroid glands. In cases of discrepant results between scintigraphy and ultrasonography, it is important to rely on another ...

Factors Increasing the Likelihood of Postoperative Hematomas Following Thyroid Surgery

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neck hematoma following thyroid surgery is a potentially life‐threatening complication. Methods This retrospective case–control study reviewed neck hematoma reoperations following thyroid surgery (2009–2024), using 3:1 matching. Univariable analysis identified hematoma and delayed onset (≥ 6 h) risk factors, with odds ratios (ORs ...

Relationship between hypoparathyroidism and the number of parathyroid glands preserved during thyroidectomy

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2014
BackgroundThe relationship between the number of parathyroid glands preserved and hypoparathyroidism is not well understood. We sought to determine the number of parathyroid glands that need to be preserved to prevent hypoparathyroidism.MethodsWe ...

Fluorosis and the parathyroid glands [PDF]

open access: yesEpidemiology and Infection, 1942
There is a close similarity between the dental changes produced experimentally in the rat by parathyroidectomy and mottled teeth as seen in man and known to be caused by protracted ingestion of toxic amounts of fluorine. In view of the fact that both parathyroidectomy and fluorine produce dystrophies in tissues regulated by the parathyroid glands it is

Prognosis and Phenotypes of Advanced Head and Neck Carcinoma Associated With Hypercalcemia

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Hypercalcemia is the most common metabolic disorder in cancer, affecting 10%–20% of patients with advanced malignancies, including squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC), though its prognostic significance remains poorly studied.
