Laboratory and instrumental criteria for assessing the persistence of primary hyperparathyroidism within the first day after surgery. Retrospective assessment of risk

Mìžnarodnij Endokrinologìčnij Žurnal, 2019
Background. The variability of laboratory results leads to an in­depth study of the past medical history and clinical picture, as well as diagnostic procedures to detect parathyroid glands with altered functional activity. The purpose of the study was to

The Diagnostic Accuracy of High Resolution Ultrasound Imaging for Detection of Secondary Hyperparathyroidism in Patients with Chronic Renal Failure [PDF]

Acta Medica Iranica, 2011
Ultrasound is one of the preferred modalities for evaluation of the parathyroid glands. This study was undertaken to determine the accuracy of high resolution ultrasound for secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients with chronic renal failure. From March

SLPI is a critical mediator that controls PTH-induced bone formation

Nature Communications, 2021
The mechanism by which parathyroid hormone mediates the switch from bone resorption to bone formation is unclear. Here, the authors show that SLPI regulates the communication between osteoblasts and osteoclasts to promote the anabolic effect of ...

Refractory hypercalcemia caused by parathyroid-hormone-related peptide secretion from a metastatic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports
Background The parathyroid-hormone-related peptide has been shown in earlier studies to be secreted by pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, although its secretion by gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors is very rare.

Interaction between serum FGF-23 and PTH in renal phosphate excretion, a case-control study in hypoparathyroid patients

BMC Nephrology, 2020
Background phosphate homeostasis is mediated through complex counter regulatory feed-back balance between parathyroid hormone, FGF-23 and 1,25(OH)2D. Both parathyroid hormone and FGF-23 regulate proximal tubular phosphate excretion through signaling on ...
