4D-CT for Preoperative Localization of Abnormal Parathyroid Glands in Patients with Hyperparathyroidism: Accuracy and Ability to Stratify Patients by Unilateral versus Bilateral Disease in Surgery-Naïve and Re-Exploration Patients

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Neuroradiology, 2014
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: 4D-CT is an emerging technique that uses high-resolution images, multiplanar reformats, and perfusion characteristics to identify abnormal parathyroid glands in patients with hyperparathyroidism.

Instant Intraoperative Histopathological Assessment of Fresh Parathyroid Tissue: Higher Harmonic Generation Microscopy as a Potential Alternative to Frozen Section

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Hypoparathyroidism is a complication associated with significant morbidity and results from inadvertent removal of the parathyroid during thyroid surgery. Therefore, intra‐operative identification of parathyroid tissue is essential to minimize the risk of hypoparathyroidism.

Classification of the parathyroid glands and the frequency of occurrence of their different types in mature rats

open access: yesСибирский научный медицинский журнал
The parathyroid glands play an important role in the regulation of calcium and phosphorus metabolism in the body. They are in close anatomical relationship with the thyroid gland and, considering their small size, can be accidentally removed during ...

Comparison of Methoxyisobutylisonitrile Scintigraphy and Ultrasonography in Preoperative Localization of Secondary Hyperparathyroidism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: In patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism, the four glands are not uniformly enlarged; therefore, preoperative localization is difficult in comparison with primary hyperparathyroidism.

Safety Evaluation of Serendipity Berry Sweet Protein From Komagataella phaffii

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Serendipity Berry Sweet Protein (sweelin) is a novel hyper‐sweet thermophilic protein designed using Artificial Intelligence Computational Protein Design (AI‐CPD) to improve the stability and sensory profile of the protein found in serendipity berry (Dioscoreophyllum cumminsii).

Parathyroid identification by autofluorescence – preliminary report on five cases of surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism

open access: yesBMC Surgery, 2019
Background Intra-operative identification of parathyroid glands is often a challenge for surgeons performing parathyroid or thyroid surgery. Parathyroid glands stimulated by near-infrared light emit autofluorescence, which allows their discrimination ...

Older Age Is Associated with Decreased Levels of VDR, CYP27B1, and CYP24A1 and Increased Levels of PTH in Human Parathyroid Glands

open access: yesInternational Journal of Endocrinology, 2020
Parathyroid glands contain the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and 25-hydroxyvitamin D-1α-hydroxylase (CYP27B1) and 24-hydroxylase (CYP24A1), which catalyze the production and degradation of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)2D], respectively.

Gland Instance Segmentation by Deep Multichannel Side Supervision [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
In this paper, we propose a new image instance segmentation method that segments individual glands (instances) in colon histology images. This is a task called instance segmentation that has recently become increasingly important. The problem is challenging since not only do the glands need to be segmented from the complex background, they are also ...
