Assessment of Thyroid Uptake Ratio Values in a Normal Population. Establishment of Normal Reference Values for 99mTc‐Pertechnetate Thyroid Uptake in an Australian Population

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
An Australian first, this study examined normal reference ranges for 99mTc‐pertechnetate thyroid uptake. Through a retrospective and prospective analysis, this study found a new reference range of 0.4%–2.4%. The findings suggest that locally derived reference values may differ from historical data and highlight the importance of region‐specific ...

When the Number Matters: Contextualising Australian Reference Values for 99ᵐTc‐Pertechnetate Thyroid Uptake

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
Are the historical 1%–4% thyroid uptake reference values still valid in modern practice? This editorial examines why contemporary Australian and international data suggest otherwise and situates the new reference range reported by Wornes (https://doi.org/10.1002/jmrs.70078) and colleagues within the broader international literature.

Chronic Kidney Disease‐Associated Pruritus Is Linked to Selective Enrichment of Taurine‐Conjugated Bile Acid Subspecies

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Chronic kidney disease‐associated pruritus (CKDaP) is a frequent complication of advanced CKD with an incompletely understood pathophysiology. We identified a significantly altered glycine‐to‐taurine conjugated bile acid ratio in patients with CKDaP despite unchanged total serum bile acid concentrations.

Surgical Management of Multiglandular Parathyroid Disease

open access: yes, 2013
In 1934, Albright et al.[1] discovered the unusual entity of parathyroid water-clear–cell hyperplasia and thought this resulted from some form of extrinsic glandular stimulation. The more common parathyroid chief-cell hyperplasia was described in 1958 by

Factors Contributing to Improved Bone Mineral Density in Patients With Transfusion‐Dependent Thalassemia

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advances in therapy have extended the life expectancy of patients with thalassemia to near that of the general population; complications such as endocrine disorders and osteoporosis remain prevalent. This study aimed to identify endocrine complications, factors associated with endocrine complications, and changes in bone mineral density (BMD ...
