Primary Hyperparathyroidism in Adults: Recent Developments in Diagnosis and Management
Medical Journal of Australia, Volume 224, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Primary hyperparathyroidism has a prevalence of around 1% in the general population. Diagnosis requires biochemical testing of serum (for calcium and parathyroid hormone) and urine (for calcium excretion), as well as wider screening for complications including osteoporosis, renal disease, abdominal symptoms and neuropsychiatric disturbance.

Bone Organoids: A Novel Tool for Modeling and Managing Skeletal Disorders in Diabetes
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 24, 27 April 2026.This review synthesizes advances in bone organoid engineering and evaluates their potential to model diabetic bone fragility. Current in vitro and animal models do not fully recapitulate diabetes‐associated skeletal phenotypes. Cell‐based and scaffold‐based bone organoids are discussed as complementary approaches to reconstruct multicellular bone ...

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 2, April 2026.ABSTRACT Background Management of sarcopenia by nutritional and lifestyle interventions is a challenge. The aim is to assess the effectiveness of a phenolic‐rich extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), alone or combined with a prebiotic (PREB) (fructooligosaccharides and inulin), to improve skeletal muscle mass and function in home‐dwelling older adults (60–80 ...

Clinical Obesity, Volume 16, Issue 1, February 2026.ABSTRACT Accurate assessment of body fat percentage (%BF) is essential for predicting health risks in older adults, as age‐related changes affect fat distribution and measurement accuracy. While dual‐energy x‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) is a standard reference, it is costly and less accessible.
