Hypoparathyroidism is a well-described cause of hyperphosphatemia. We aimed to clarify the physiological role of FGF-23 in serum phosphate homeostasis in hypoparathyroidism after thyroidectomy. Increased serum FGF-23 levels were found in patients with hyperphosphatemia and hypocalcemia, caused by hypoparathyroidism after thyroidectomy. After the recovery of parathyroid function, the serum level of calcium, phosphate, and FGF-23 was normalized. Serum FGF-23 levels were significantly higher in patients with permanent hypoparathyroidism than in healthy controls. These results indicate that FGF-23 may play an important role in serum phosphate homeostasis by its up-regulation in the hyperphosphatemic condition.

One of the key factors of the interaction 'osteoplastic material-organism' is the state of the implant surface. Taking into account the fact that the equilibrium in regeneration conditions is reached only after the reparative histogenesis process is completed, the implant surface is constantly modified. This work is devoted to the numerical description of the dynamic bilateral material-medium interaction under close to physiological conditions, as well as to the assessment of the comparability of the model with and experimental results.

Lung cancer is the most common type of cancer diagnosed worldwide and is also among the most fatal. Early detection, before symptoms become evident, is fundamental for patients' survival. Therefore, several lung cancer biomarkers have been proposed to enable a prompt diagnosis, including neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA).

The abundance of hyaluronic acid (HA) in human tissues attracts its thorough research in tissue regenerating scaffolds and 3D bioprintable hydrogel preparation. Though methacrylation of HA can lead to photo-crosslinkable hydrogels, the catalyst has toxicity concerns, and the hydrogel is not suitable for creating stable complex 3D structures using extrusion 3D bioprinting. In this study, a dual crosslinking on methacrylated HA is introduced, using cysteamine-grafted HA and varying concentrations of 2-hydroxy ethyl acrylate.
