J Clin Med
November 2024
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA 90333, USA.
Article Synopsis
- Artri King was an over-the-counter supplement aimed at treating joint pain, but the FDA warned it contained hidden ingredients like dexamethasone, which can pose health risks like adrenal insufficiency.
- A study was conducted on patients who used the supplement and found significant health issues, including low cortisol levels and one case of new diabetes, prompting referrals to endocrinology.
- The findings highlight the potential severe effects of such supplements, leading to recommendations for regular screening and careful monitoring of patients who use them.

Department of Physiology, Faculty of Medicine, Kahramanmaras Sutcu Imam University, Kahramanmaras, Turkey.
Aim: To evaluate endocrinological changes and insulin secretion in patients with hereditary spherocytosis (HS).
Methods: The study included 30 patients with HS and 30 healthy control groups who were of similar age and gender. Routine tests, including hemogram, biochemical and hormonal tests were conducted on both patients with HS and the control group.
Imaging Assessment of the Pituitary Gland and Long-Term Endocrinological Abnormalities in Pediatric Brain Cancer Survivors.
J Magn Reson Imaging
December 2024
Department of Diagnostic Imaging, Sheba Medical Center, Ramat-Gan, Israel.
Background: Pediatric brain cancer survivors often experience hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction due to cranial irradiation and chemotherapy. While hormone deficiencies have been studied, the changes in pituitary size and shape on long-term MRI and their relationship to endocrine dysfunction remain under-explored.
Purpose: To evaluate pituitary gland height, volume, and shape in relation to long-term endocrine abnormalities in pediatric brain tumor survivors.
Can Novel Biomarkers Effectively Predict Acute Kidney Injury in Liver or Kidney Transplant Recipients?
Int J Mol Sci
November 2024
Department of Nephrology, Dialysis, and Internal Diseases, University Clinical Centre, Medical University of Warsaw, 02-097 Warsaw, Poland.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) constitutes a common complication associated with liver or kidney transplantation, which may significantly impact the graft condition and perioperative mortality. Current AKI diagnostic criteria based on serum creatinine (sCr) and urine output alterations are widely utilized in routine clinical practice. However, the diagnostic value of sCr may be limited by various confounding factors, including age, sex, reduced or increased muscle mass, and pre-existing chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Department of Neurosurgery, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, United States. Electronic address:
Objectives: Determine the improvements in outcomes of transsphenoidal pituitary adenoma resection following addition of a skull base rhinologist to the neurosurgical team.
Design: All patients that underwent transsphenoidal resection of pituitary adenoma were identified. Demographic data, Otolaryngology (ENT) involvement, initial adenoma size, extent of resection, hormonal secretion status, visual field exam, post-operative DI, CSF leak, recurrence, need for nasoseptal flap (NSF), re-operation rate were all collected.
