Case report: Gitelman syndrome with diabetes: Confirmed by both hydrochlorothiazide test and genetic testing.

Rationale: Gitelman syndrome (GS) is an autosomal recessive tubulopathy caused by mutations of the SLC12A3 gene. It is characterized by hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis, hypomagnesemia and hypocalciuria. Hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia, and increased renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) activity can cause glucose metabolism dysfunction.

Development of a prognostic model for 1-year survival after fragile hip fracture in Chinese.

Background: No prognostic model for the survival of fragile hip fracture has been developed for Asians. The goal of this study was to develop a simple and practical prognostic model to predict survival within 1 year after fragile hip fracture in Asians.

Methods: A single-center retrospective cohort study was designed.
