CO-EXISTING HASHIMOTO'S THYROIDITIS DOES NOT AFFECT BONE METABOLISM IN PATIENTS WITH PRIMARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM.

Context: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is often associated with thyroid disorders like nodular goiter, Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and Graves' disease.

Objective: Our aim was to explore whether the co-existence with HT affects bone metabolism in patients with PHPT.

Design: This was a comparative cross-sectional study carried out in a tertiary inpatient endocrine center from January 2018 through December 2020.

Influence of serum levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone and anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies, age and gender on depression as measured by the Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale.

Unlabelled: The AIM of the present study was to explore the level of depression in the respondents using the Zung self-rating depression scale (SDS) and find a correlation with the levels of the thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and the anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies (anti-TPO), the age and gender of the participants.

Patients And Methods: 2401 subjects aged 20-84 yrs were included, 1344 of them female aged 48.7 +/- 14.

[Case report of ADAM syndrome at 16 weeks of gestation].

We present a case of ADAM complex diagnosed at 16 weeks gestation due to severe fetal abnormalities and discuss the protocol of an adequate obstetrical management.

[Cyproterone acetate improves beta-cell function in postmenopausal women with diabetes mellitus type 2].

Menopause is associated with two main risk factors for the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus--impaired beta-cell insulin secretion and insulin resistance. Physiologically estrogens improve carbohydrate metabolism, but this is not the case with different progestogens. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of Cyproterone acetate (a progestogen with antiandrogenic activity) on insulin secretion, peripheral insulin sensitivity, lipid parameters and parameters of oxidative stress.

The effect of vitamin D3 on insulin secretion and peripheral insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetic patients.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of vitamin D3 supplementation on insulin secretion and insulin resistance. Ten females with type 2 diabetes being treated with oral hypoglycaemic agents and with normal serum and urine calcium levels were enrolled in the study. The study was conducted in March, when levels of vitamin D are lowest in our region.
