Pregnancy‐ and lactation‐associated osteoporosis: A position statement of the IAPM, IOF, ECTS, ESCEO, IMS, and EMAS

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Pregnancy‐ and lactation‐associated osteoporosis (PLO) is a syndrome characterized by fragility fractures (most commonly vertebral, often multiple) occurring in late pregnancy or the early postpartum period. This position statement summarizes the current knowledge of PLO, and the recommended procedure for assessment, diagnosis and treatment ...

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.

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 ...

Parathyroid hormone alleviates non-alcoholic liver steatosis via activating the hepatic cAMP/PKA/CREB pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), hallmarked by liver steatosis, is becoming a global concern, but effective and safe drugs for NAFLD are still lacking at present.

Visual Parathyroid Identification in Thyroidectomy: A Decision Curve Analysis of Gland Preservation

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Intraoperative visual identification remains the standard approach to parathyroid preservation during thyroidectomy, yet its accuracy has rarely been quantified against an objective reference. Among 50 suspected parathyroid specimens verified by fine‐needle aspiration PTH washout, expert consensus visual identification achieved 84.0% sensitivity but ...

Primary Hyperparathyroidism From Concurrent Parathyroid Hyperplasia and Ectopic Parathyroid Adenoma: A Case Report

open access: yesCase Reports in Endocrinology
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), whether caused by an adenoma or hyperplasia, can be curative with parathyroidectomy. However, persistently elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) despite parathyroidectomy suggests multigland disease.

Non–Prostate Cancer‐Related Factors That Influence Serum Prostate‐Specific Antigen: A Narrative Review of 45 Non‐Malignant PSA Modifiers

open access: yesThe Prostate, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background To consolidate into a single review more than forty non‐cancer‐related factors that have been found to elevate or reduce prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) levels in the peer‐reviewed literature, emphasizing their contribution to false‐positive and false‐negative clinical interpretations.

New assays for parathyroid hormone (PTH) and the relevance of PTH fragments in renal failure [PDF]

open access: yesKidney International, 2003
Immunometric assays for parathyroid hormone (PTH) are used extensively to assess bone and mineral metabolism in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who are treated with dialysis. Results generally correspond to bone histology as documented by bone biopsy, and they are useful in monitoring disease progression.

Novel Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) Antagonists That Bind to the Juxtamembrane Portion of the PTH/PTH-related Protein Receptor [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2005
Current antagonists for the parathyroid hormone (PTH)/PTH-related protein (PTHrP) receptor (PTHR) are N-terminally truncated or N-terminally modified analogs of PTH(1-34) or PTHrP(1-34) and are thought to bind predominantly to the N-terminal extracellular (N) domain of the receptor.

Transplantation and Noninvasive Longitudinal Imaging of Parathyroid Cells: A Proof-of-Concept Study

open access: yesCell Transplantation
The parathyroid cell is a vital regulator of extracellular calcium levels, operating through the secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH). Despite its importance, the regulation of PTH secretion remains complex and not fully understood, representing a ...
