Objective: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is characterized by elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels and hypercalcemia. Although research suggests a potential link between PTH and lipid metabolism, the evidence remains inconclusive. This study investigated lipid metabolism and fat distribution in PHPT patients.

Background: Published reports demonstrate that the use of Castor stent-graft is a promising treatment of aortic pathologies with the need to land in zone 2. However, there is a lack of publications on the medium-term results of Castor in the European population. This research evaluates the mid-term results of the Castor stent-graft in several Polish centers for the treatment of aortic pathologies and enriches the current knowledge of Castor stent-grafts.

Background: High visceral fat area (VFA), estimated by computed tomography (CT), is reportedly associated with surgical site infection (SSI) in patients who undergo gastrectomy for gastric cancer (GC). Given that fat distributions vary markedly according to sex, sex-specific definitions of visceral obesity should be applied. This study investigated the optimal sex-specific thresholds for VFA at the L3 level to assess the risk of SSI after gastrectomy.
