Prevalence of sleep apnoea in patients with type 1 diabetes and its association with comorbidities and diabetic complications: A French nationwide prospective study.

Aim: To investigate sleep apnoea prevalence, factors influencing severity, and associations between sleep apnoea severity and micro-/macrovascular complications in a large population of patients with type 1 diabetes.

Materials And Methods: This French multicentre prospective cohort study was conducted between July 2016 and June 2020. Adults with type 1 diabetes using an insulin pump were eligible.

Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis associated with lactic metabolic acidosis: Case report of an African man and review of literature.

Background: Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis (TPP) is a rare and most often acquired subtype of hypokalemic periodic paralysis. The association of varying degrees of muscle weakness, hyperthyroidism and hypokalemia characterizes it. The treatment requires potassium supplementation, control of hyperthyroidism and prevention measures.

Extending the clinical heterogeneity of iodide transport defect (ITD): a novel mutation R124H of the sodium/iodide symporter gene and review of genotype-phenotype correlations in ITD.

Context: Iodide transport defect (ITD) is an autosomal recessive disorder resulting in varying degrees of congenital hypothyroidism (CH) with goiter and low or absent radioiodide uptake (RIUT), as determined by thyroid scintigraphy, and low iodide saliva to plasma ratio. Defects of the sodium/iodide symporter gene (NIS) have been shown to cause ITD.

Objective: We describe molecular studies of NIS in a patient with ITD and genotype-phenotype correlation analysis in 31 patients with NIS defects reported worldwide.
