Recurrent tertiary hyperparathyroidism due to supernumerary parathyroid glands in a patient receiving long-term hemodialysis: a case report

open access: yesBMC Endocrine Disorders, 2019
Background Renal hyperparathyroidism is a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD) or end-stage renal disease (ESRD) characterized by elevated parathyroid hormone levels secondary to derangements in the homeostasis of calcium, phosphate, and ...

Metastatic calcinosis cutis in a dialysis patient

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Nephrology, 2023
Metastatic calcinosis cutis is an uncommon complication of end-stage kidney disease but has severe and disabling effects. Its development is attributed to disorders of calcium and phosphate metabolism associated with secondary hyperparathyroidism.

Effect of Electromyography Findings of Traction‐Related Signal Loss on Prognosis During Neuromonitored Thyroidectomy

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) is a reliable tool to detect electromyographic loss of signal (LOS). Here, we investigated the effect of electromyography features of traction‐related LOS on prognosis. Methods Thyroidectomy patients with a traction‐related LOS were included.

Kinetics of parathyroid hormone after parathyroidectomy in chronic hemodialysis patients

open access: yesSaudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2015
Secondary hyperparathyroidism is a common complication in chronic renal failure. The treatment in some cases requires parathyroidectomy. The kinetics of the parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels after surgery helps to evaluate the efficacy of ...

Understanding and Addressing Delays in Endocrine Surgery: Insights From a Mixed‐Methods Study and a Pilot Educational Intervention

open access: yesJournal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Delays in endocrine surgical care contribute to adverse events, patient dissatisfaction, and mortality. Communication is an overlooked contributor. This study identified multi‐level drivers of delay and piloted a provider‐focused intervention. Methods We conducted an IRB‐approved mixed‐methods study.

Rare But Risky: Clinical Impacts of Pneumothorax After Thyroidectomy and Parathyroidectomy

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Postoperative pneumothorax (PPTX) is rare after thyroidectomy or parathyroidectomy, occurring in up to 0.10% of cases. However, it is associated with increased risks of all‐cause mortality, adverse respiratory events, and healthcare utilization rates in up to 1 year after surgery, deeming PPTX as a potential marker of increased postoperative ...

A Clinically Aligned Two‐Stage Machine Learning Framework for Predicting Hungry Bone Syndrome After Parathyroidectomy

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 5, September 2026.
A clinically aligned two‐stage machine learning framework integrates preoperative and perioperative features to predict hungry bone syndrome after parathyroidectomy. Explainable risk stratification may support individualised calcium management and early intervention for high‐risk patients.

Identification of Clinical Factors Associated With the Immunogenicity of Homologous ChAdOx1‐nCoV‐19 Vaccine in Hemodialysis Patients

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, Volume 42, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Hemodialysis (HD) patients are at higher risk of severe COVID‐19 and may exhibit suboptimal vaccine responses. This study evaluates the factors influencing vaccine‐induced immunity in HD patients following the second dose of the Vaxzevria. A total of 276 HD patients and 126 controls were included. Antibody responses were assessed using binding
