The Challenge of Determining the Etiology of Encephalopathy in an Elderly Patient
ABSTRACT Encephalopathy is a heterogeneous clinical syndrome with numerous neurological and systemic etiologies. We report the case of a 67‐year‐old man, a chronic ethanol consumer, admitted with a one‐week history of confusional syndrome. Initial laboratory tests revealed severe hypercalcemia, acute kidney injury, mild anemia, and hyperproteinemia ...

Genomic screening for parathyroid tumor suppressor gene and candidate gene analysis [PDF]
The molecular pathogenesis of parathyroid adenomas has yet to be fully elucidated with only two genes, cyclin D1 and MENI , established as direct contributors to the pathogenesis of sporadic parathyroid adenomas.

Primaryhyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a disorder of mineral metabolism caused by inappropriate or excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone. It occurs sporadically in approximately 95% of cases but may also be associated with complex syndromes and/or a ...

Using a Fine‑Gray competing risk model accounting for renal transplantation, pulmonary hypertension probability, age, and right ventricular diameter independently predicted mortality in maintenance hemodialysis patients. Risk profiles differed by vascular access, supporting individualized cardiovascular risk stratification.

Aberrant promoter methylation, expression and function of RASSF1A gene in a series of Italian parathyroid tumors [PDF]
Purpose: Aberrant epigenetic features are key events involved in parathyroid tumorigenesis, including DNA methylation, histone methylation, and non-coding RNAs. Ras Association Domain Family Protein1 Isoform A (RASSF1A) and Adenomatous Polyposis of Colon

ABSTRACT TFE3‐rearranged renal cell carcinoma (TFE3‐rRCC) is a rare subtype of renal carcinoma that may present diagnostic challenges in cytologic specimens, particularly when metastatic disease represents the initial clinical manifestation. We report the case of a 72‐year‐old man presenting with bulky cervical lymphadenopathy clinically suspicious for

Historical Perspective and Evolutionary Origins of Parathyroid Hormone-Related Protein [PDF]
After the discovery of parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) as the cause of the hypercalcemia of malignancy, it was found to be distributed widely in tissues, with its actions driving many physiologic and pathologic conditions.

We report on a 32‐year‐old female patient with a very rare coexistence of alpha‐1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) and multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B (MEN2B). Both conditions can affect breathing and may hide each other's symptoms, leading to delayed diagnosis.

Immunohistochemical detection of cell cycle regulators, Fhit protein and apoptotic cells in parathyroid lesions [PDF]
Objective: The pathological distinction between parathyroid neoplasms and hyperplasias remains difficult. Changes in cell cycle control may lead to clonal proliferation and precede tumorigenesis.
