Background: The development of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) after radioactive iodine (RAI) treatment for thyroid disease is poorly characterized. The current study is the largest reported cohort and assesses the disease characteristics of patients treated for PHPT with a history of RAI exposure.
Methods: A retrospective analysis comparing patients, with and without a history of RAI treatment, who underwent surgery for PHPT.
Results: Twenty-eight of the 469 patients had a history of RAI treatment, all for Graves' disease. Patients with a history of RAI exposure had similar disease characteristics compared to control; however, patients with a history of RAI treatment had a higher rate of recurrence (7.4% vs 1.2%, p = 0.012).
Conclusion: PHPT in patients with a history of RAI treatment can be approached in the same manner as RAI naive PHPT patients; however, the risk of recurrence of PHPT in RAI exposed patients may be higher.

Background: Understanding the evolutionary history of plants and accurately identifying biologically important species and their families is crucial for the herbal and Ayurvedic industries. The genetic approach by DNA barcoding plays a pivotal role in accurate species identification, authentication and quality control. Due to various therapeutic properties, Withania somnifera has been used worldwide in traditional systems of medicine for centuries including Ayurveda and Unani.

Pericardial effusion is a relatively common classical pericardial syndrome that poses a diagnostic challenge for clinicians. There are varying clinical presentations of pericardial effusion, ranging from asymptomatic incidental findings on chest X-ray (CXR) or point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) to hemodynamic instability in cardiac tamponade. Pericardial effusion is a notable cardiac manifestation of severe and long-standing hypothyroidism.

The Nicobarese are the major tribal groups in the Nicobar district, situated south of the Andaman group of Islands. Linguistic phylogeny suggests that the linguistic ancestors of the Nicobarese settled the Nicobar archipelago in the early Holocene. So far, genetic research on them is low-resolution and restricted to the haploid DNA markers.
