13. Use of prophylactic oral calcium after total thyroidectomy: a prospective study
ABSTRACT Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of prophylactic oral calcium after total thyroidectomy in the prevention of symptomatic hypocalcemia, and to develop a rational strategy of oral calcium supplementation following this type of surgery. Subjects and methods Prospective study including 47 patients undergoing total thyroidectom

14. Use of cinacalcet and sunitinib to treat hypercalcaemia due to a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor
SUMMARY Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) can secrete hormones, including ectopic secretions, but they have been rarely associated with malignant hypercalcemia. A 52-year-old man with a history of diabetes mellitus was diagnosed with a pancreatic tumor. A pancreatic biopsy confirmed a well-differentiated pancreatic NET (pNET). The patient subsequently developed l

15. Hypoparathyroidism and pseudohypoparathyroidism: etiology, laboratory features and complications
ABSTRACT Objectives To identify a clinical profile and laboratory findings of a cohort of hypoparathyroidism patients and determine the prevalence and predictors for renal abnormalities. Materials and methods Data from medical records of five different visits were obtained, focusing on therapeutic doses of calcium and vitamin D, on laboratory tests and r

16. Hypocalcemia development in patients operated for primary hyperparathyroidism: Can it be predicted preoperatively?
ABSTRACT Objective Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHP) is a common endocrine disease, and its most effective treatment is surgery. Postoperative hypocalcemia is a morbidity of parathyroid surgeries, and it may extend hospitalization durations. The purpose of this study is to determine the predictive factors related to the development of hypocalcemia and hung

17. Fatores preditivos da hipofunção do autoimplante de paratireóide em pacientes submetidos à paratireoidectomia total por hiperparatireoidismo secundário à insuficiência renal crônica / redictive factors of parathyroid auto-implant hypofunction in patients with chronic kidney disease submitted to totalparathyroidectomy due to secondary hyperparathyroidism
O hiperparatireoidismo (HPT) secundário é uma complicação da doença renal crônica. A paratireoidectomia total com autoimplante proporciona bons resultados no seu tratamento, mas alguns doentes não desenvolvem níveis adequados de hormônio da paratireóide (PTH) após a operação. Os objetivos, do presente estudo, foram analisar fatores que poderiam

18. Prevalência de hipocalcemia e hipomagnesemia em equinos com distúrbios gastrintestinais
The prevalence of hypocalcemia and hypomagnesemia was evaluated in horses with gastrointestinal diseases. For that, 12 animals were examined at the UVV Veterinary Hospital. Age and gender of the animals, as well breed clinical diagnosis, adopted therapy and outcomes were recorded. Serum determinations of total calcium and magnesium were done on the day of ad

19. DiGeorge Syndrome: a not so rare disease
INTRODUCTION: The DiGeorge Syndrome was first described in 1968 as a primary immunodeficiency resulting from the abnormal development of the third and fourth pharyngeal pouches during embryonic life. It is characterized by hypocalcemia due to hypoparathyroidism, heart defects, and thymic hypoplasia or aplasia. Its incidence is 1:3000 live births and, despite

20. Ultimobranchial gland of freshwater catfish, Heteropneustes fossilis, in response to calcitonin administration
The absence o!!f a hypocalcemic effect of calcitonin (CT) in fishes has been suggested due to exceedingly high plasma levels of CT; the fish may be saturated with respect of circulating CT and therefore unable to respond to exogenously administered CT. Earlier it has been suggested that a hypocalcemic action of injected CT may be obscured by changes in the r

21. Study of an experimental induction model and treatment of hypocalcemia in bovines and equines / Estudo de um modelo experimental de indução e tratamento de hipocalcemia em bovinos e eqüinos
O presente trabalho objetivou validar o modelo experimental de indução de hipocalcemia, por meio de solução de EDTA, utilizado em bovinos para a espécie eqüina, bem como estudar o quadro sintomatológico, algumas variáveis bioquímicas e a resposta ao tratamento com cálcio. Foram utilizados 24 animais, 12 novilhas e 12 éguas, aleatoriamente distribu

23. Avaliação do cálcio sérico ionizado em gatos sadios e em gatos com insuficiência renal crônica / Serum ionized calcium evaluation in healthy cats and in cats with chronic renal failure
Chronic renal failure (CRF) can cause many metabolic abnormalities in the body, and one of these is represented by alteration in calcium metabolism, and the animal can develop demineralization and calcification of soft tissues, including renal parenchyma, which can facilitate the progression of renal damage. In routine, calcium is usually evaluated by measur

24. Parathyroid hormone secretion in chronic human endogenous hypercortisolism
Osteoporosis is a common manifestation of Cushing's syndrome, but the mechanisms responsible for this abnormality have not been defined. With the objective of analyzing parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion in chronic hypercortisolism (CH), we evaluated 11 healthy subjects and 8 patients with CH, 6 with Cushing's disease and 2 with adrenal adenoma. These volun
