Primary hyperparathyroidism in patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1: Impact of genotype and surgical approach on long-term postoperative outcomes.

Background: Protein-truncating germline pathogenic variants in the N- and C-terminal exons (2, 9, and 10) of the MEN1 gene may be associated with aggressive pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. However, the impact of these variants on parathyroid disease is poorly understood. We sought to investigate the effects of genotype and surgical approach on clinical phenotype and postoperative outcomes in patients with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1)-related primary hyperparathyroidism.

Quality of Pregnancy Dating and Obstetric Interventions During Labor: Retrospective Database Analysis.

Background: The correct dating of pregnancy is critical to support timely decisions and provide obstetric care during birth. The early obstetric ultrasound assessment before 14 weeks is considered the best reference to assist in determining gestational age (GA), with an accuracy of ±5 to 7 days. However, this information is limited in many settings worldwide.
