Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to identify patients with chronic hypoparathyroidism who either had adequate (AC) or not adequately controlled (NAC) disease, as poor control is linked to complications and increased mortality.
- Researchers analyzed data from 337 patients across 16 Spanish hospitals to assess disease control through biochemical criteria and clinical wellness, finding that many patients were not adequately controlled.
- Findings revealed that 45.9% to 63.1% of patients met the NAC criteria, with those who had dyslipidemia being at a greater risk, and NAC patients exhibited higher rates of associated comorbidities like chronic kidney disease and eye disorders compared to AC patients.
Purpose: Population-based and registry studies have shown that chronic hypoparathyroidism is accompanied by long-term complications. We aimed to evaluate the risk of incident comorbidity among patients with chronic postsurgical hypoparathyroidism in real-life clinical practice in Spain.
Methods: We performed a multicenter, retrospective cohort study including patients with chronic postsurgical hypoparathyroidism lasting ≥3 years with at least a follow-up visit between January 1, 2022 and September 15, 2023 (group H).
Chronic diseases, also known as non-communicable diseases (NCD) are one of the most important public health problems of our time. Many of these diseases can be reduced by achieving healthy lifestyles. Community interventions are very useful in reducing these types of diseases since they have a direct impact over daily conditions and are adjustable to the complex situations that they carry.

Material And Methods: Multicentre retrospective study. Some 404 women were studied, 257 with type 1 DM and 147 with type 2 DM.
A 25-year-old, with type I Diabetes Mellitus with a previous diagnosis of Protamine Allergy but not to human Insulin, started to notice anaphylactic reactions immediately after bolus with Insulin. Skin prick and intradermal test were positive to all insulins. Skin tests to other potential allergens resulted negative.

A 75-g oral glucose tolerance test was scheduled 5 years after delivery along with lipid profile, anthropometrics, and blood pressure measurement. Metabolic syndrome was defined according to the National Cholesterol Education Program 2001, and insulin sensitivity and secretion were estimated with the homeostasis model assessment.

Research Design And Methods: In 696 women with GDM and 70 control women, glucose tolerance was evaluated postpartum and at 5-year intervals.
Results: In the GDM group, the cumulative risk for diabetes and AGT was 13.
