Filter by:Wearable electronic devices are becoming more prevalent in daily life, as they offer real time information on physiological parameters such as heart rate, activity level, oxygenation, and sleep patterns for their users. These wearable electronic devices are easy to install and offer no major risk or discomfort to the user. Implementation of these technologies into medicine has exponentially grown in the past decade with supporting evidence for their use in cardiovascular disease and sleep medicine. The investigators believe that these devices will be able to capture the changes associated with improvement in non-specific symptoms that have not been previously demonstrated.
To define the frequency of monoclonal-X and polyclonal-X tumors in PHPT participants having parathyroidectomy (PTX) and to define the relationship between parathyroid tumor clonal status and multiple gland neoplasia (MGN), we will compare surgical and pathologic outcomes to tumor clonal status in a multicenter cohort of patients having bilateral neck exploration (BNE) and PTX (primary objectives).
The purpose of this study is to assess glycemic control after parathyroidectomy in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and concomitant type 2 diabetes mellitus.
CoHPT is a prospective, monocentric, observational cohort including all patients diagnosed with primary hyperparathyroidism in Nantes University Hospital, aiming to study the outcomes associated with parathyroidectomy. Clinical and biochemical evaluation is performed at the inclusion, and 6, 12, 36 and 60 months. A biocollection is collected. The main hypotheses are that parathyroidectomy could improve cardiovascular, renal, bone, and cardiovascular outcomes along with quality of life.
In this study we aimed to evaluate the effect of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) on bone geometry simultaneously at the tibia and the radius, peripheral bone sites with similar structure but subject to different loading conditions. This evaluation was made by comparing z-scores of bone parameters measured by peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT).
This study will see if the use of near infrared autofluorescence (NIRAF) detection with an FDA-cleared device 'Parathyroid Eye (PTeye)' for identifying parathyroid glands (PGs) during parathyroidectomy (PTx) procedures is better than a surgeon's detection alone. It compares risk-benefits and outcomes in PTx patients where NIRAF detection with PTeye for parathyroid identification is either used or not used.
Background: Parathyroid disorders are very common in the general population and include disorders of parathyroid excess, deficiency, or defects in parathyroid hormone (PTH) signaling. PTH, the main secretory product of parathyroid glands is responsible for regulation of calcium-phosphate homeostasis. Objective: i) To investigate the cause of parathyroid disorders ii) To describe evolution, natural history, and longitudinal trends of parathyroid and related disorders seen in syndromic presentations like multiple endocrine neoplasia, hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor syndrome Eligibility: People ages 6 months older who have, are at risk of having, or are related to a person with a parathyroid or related disorder. Design: Participants will be screened with a review of their medical records. Participants will be seen, tested, and treated by doctors based on their condition. Their visits may be in person or via telehealth. Participants will complete questionnaires. They will answer questions about their physical, mental, and social health. Participants may give samples such as saliva, blood, urine, or stool. Participants may give cheek cell samples. They will do this using a cheek swab or by spitting into a cup. Adult participants may give a skin biopsy. For this, a small bit of skin is removed with a punch tool. Participants may have medical photos taken. If participants have surgery during the course of their regular care either at the NIH or at a different hospital or doctor s office, researchers will ask for some of the leftover tissue. Participants will be in the study as long as they are being seen by their doctor.
This prospective controlled interventional study aims to reveal the diversity of vitamin D metabolism in patients with certain endocrine disorders (Cushing's disease, acromegaly, primary hyperparathyroidism, diabetes mellitus type 1) compared to healthy adults. All patients will receive a single dose (150,000 IU) of cholecalciferol aqueous solution orally. Laboratory assessments including serum vitamin D metabolites (25(OH)D3, 25(OH)D2, 1,25(OH)2D3, 3-epi-25(OH)D3, 24,25(OH)2D3 and D3), free 25(OH)D, vitamin D-binding protein (DBP) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) as well as serum and urine biochemical parameters will be performed before the intake and on Days 1, 3 and 7 after the administration.
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a disorder of one or more of the parathyroid glands. The parathyroid gland(s) becomes overactive and secretes excess amounts of parathyroid hormone (PTH). As a result, the blood calcium rises to a level that is higher than normal. PHPT is associated with several other metabolic complications as osteoporosis, kidney stones, hypertension, insulin resistance, cardiac calcifications, cardiac arrhythmias, and kidney failure. Renal function deterioration over time has also been reported. However, the role of parathyroidectomy on renal function remains controversial in patients with PHPT. In some studies, surgical cure of PHPT has been shown to halt renal function deterioration in patients with coexisting renal disease. On the other hand, other studies showed no significant impact of parathyroidectomy on renal function. Consequently, the goal of this study was to evaluate renal function before and after parathyroidectomy in a large cohort of patients with pHPT.
Although some surgeons still consider bilateral neck exploration as the best approach for primary hyperparathyroidism, nowadays most of them perceive the mini-invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP) as the best option for patients with concordant preoperative studies. Nevertheless, the consensus is heterogeneous for patients with unclear localisation studies, with some surgeons deeming BNE as mandatory and others suggesting that a mini-invasive approach is still possible if combined with IOPTH monitoring. In our research, we focused on patients with unclear preoperative localisation studies, to better understand the factors that can determine discordant or negative results between US and MIBI scan, in order to choose the best surgical approach and to evaluate the outcomes in this kind of patients.
