Ketotic Hypoglycaemia Following Sleeve Gastrectomy
ABSTRACT Post‐bariatric surgery hypoglycaemia is typically mediated by hyperinsulinaemia, although the exact mechanisms are incompletely understood. Two cases of non‐insulin mediated, ketotic hypoglycaemia following sleeve gastrectomy are presented. After fasting for 40 and 65 h, respectively, both patients developed symptomatic hypoglycaemia, with ...

Continuous and Pulsed Experiments with Numerical Simulation to Dissect Pituitary Gland Tumour by Using Liquid Jet [PDF]
Endoscopic endonasal surgery is a minimal invasive surgery that has been used to dissect pituitary gland tumour via curettes with the help of endoscope. However, this type of surgery has a high risk of failure because curettes may cause damages to blood vessels and optical nerves that lead to more complication for the patient.

Familial isolated pituitary adenoma (FIPA) occurs in families and is unrelated to multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 and Carney complex. Mutations in AIP account only for 15-25% of FIPA families.

Progress on diagnosis and treatment of pituitary adenoma in children
Pituitary adenoma is a benign intracranial tumor, commonly found in adults and occasionally in children. Pituitary adenoma is classified into secretory and non-secretory adenoma based on whether there is abnormal hormone secretion.

No evidence for oncogenic mutations in guanine nucleotide-binding proteins of human adrenocortical neoplasms [PDF]
G-Proteins are membrane-bound heterotrimeric polypeptides that couple receptor signals to second messenger systems such as cAMP. Recently, point mutations at 2 codons of the highly preserved alpha-chain of Gs, the adenyl cyclase-stimulating G-protein ...

Deep-Learning for Classification of Colorectal Polyps on Whole-Slide Images [PDF]
Histopathological characterization of colorectal polyps is an important principle for determining the risk of colorectal cancer and future rates of surveillance for patients. This characterization is time-intensive, requires years of specialized training, and suffers from significant inter-observer and intra-observer variability. In this work, we built

Endothelial Expression of Endocan Is Strongly Associated with Tumor Progression in Pituitary Adenoma
Although benign, pituitary adenomas frequently invade adjacent sinuses or recur after first surgery. To date, there is no histological marker predictive of recurrence. Angiogenic factors are candidate markers.

ABSTRACT Objective Detecting hypotonic urine (specific gravity < 1005 g/L) is crucial for the early identification of arginine vasopressin deficiency (AVP‐deficiency), a common complication after pituitary surgery. This study aimed to evaluate the agreement between urine specific gravity measurements taken by patients using urine test strips and those ...
