Summary: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a disorder in which excessive parathyroid hormone (PTH) is secreted from the parathyroid glands. The cause of PHPT is most commonly parathyroid lesions such as parathyroid adenoma. The clinical manifestations of PHPT include hypercalcemia, nephrolithiasis, bone disease and rarely pathological fractures and brown tumors, which arise within the foci of osteitis fibrosa.

Hypercalcemia may be induced by a variety of etiologies, most commonly primary hyperparathyroidism. Although primary hyperparathyroidism represents a relatively common endocrinological disorder, ectopic PTH secretion is a rare entity that is less well described in literature. We describe the first case to our knowledge of severe, symptomatic hypercalcemia found to be secondary to a PTH-secreting pancreatoblastoma.

Introduction: Leptin and ghrelin are two hormones that play a role in weight homeostasis. Leptin, which is produced primarily by adipocytes and is dependent on body fat mass, suppresses appetite and increases energy expenditure. Conversely, ghrelin is the "hunger hormone", it stimulates appetite and promotes fat storage.

The aim of this randomised controlled trial was to investigate the effects of breakfast high or low in protein on body composition and cardiometabolic markers in young women with overweight. In total, fifty-six women aged 18-30 years consumed a breakfast containing either high protein (34 g protein, 26) or low protein (6 g protein, 30) for 12 weeks. Measurements of body composition by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, waist circumference, glucose tolerance, fasting glucose, insulin and lipid profile were performed before and after this period.

Refractoriness to initial chemotherapy and relapse after remission are the main obstacles to curing T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). While tumor heterogeneity has been implicated in treatment failure, the cellular and genetic factors contributing to resistance and relapse remain unknown. Here we linked tumor subpopulations with clinical outcome, created an atlas of healthy pediatric hematopoiesis and applied single-cell multiomic analysis to a diverse cohort of 40 T-ALL cases.
