Case report: Prolonged and severe hungry bone syndrome after parathyroidectomy in X-linked hypophosphatemia.
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne)

Department of Experimental Medicine, Sapienza University of Rome, Rome, Italy.
Tertiary hyperparathyroidism is characterized by hypercalcemia resulting from autonomous parathyroid hormone production and usually occurs after a prolonged period of secondary hyperparathyroidism. This condition can be a complication of X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH), a rare genetic disease characterized by renal phosphate loss and consequent hypophosphatemia. Parathyroidectomy is considered the first-line therapy but surgical intervention can be complicated by hungry bone syndrome.

Background: Exposure to sunlight aids in the body's production of vitamin D, guards against rickets, and treats newborn jaundice. In Ethiopia, the magnitude of sunlight exposure practice varies across studies. Thus, this study aimed to estimate the pooled practices and factors associated with sunlight exposure of infants among mothers in Ethiopia.

Diagnostics (Basel)
January 2025
Departamento de Medicina Genómica, Instituto Nacional de Rehabilitación, Calzada México-Xochimilco 289, Col. Arenal de Guadalupe, Ciudad de México 14389, Mexico.
Background/objectives: X-linked hypophosphataemic rickets (XLH) represents the most frequent type of rickets from genetic origin, it is caused by mutations on the gene. The main clinical manifestations are short stature and bone deformities. Phenotype variation is observed at the intrafamily and interfamily level.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have serum, bone, and vascular abnormalities presenting as chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD) syndrome. This study sought to identify the parameters with the greatest relative impact on progression of CKD-MBD abnormalities.
Materials And Methods: This prospective study measured 237 parameters including serum markers, clinical variables, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements, vascular calcifications, and histomorphometric results from bone samples obtained at baseline and after 2 - 3 years.
Vitamin D and Endometriosis: Is There a Mechanistic Link?
Cell Biochem Funct
January 2025
Department of Metabolism and Systems Science, School of Medical Sciences, University of Birmingham, Birmingham, UK.
Endometriosis is a prevalent chronic gynaecological disorder, but its cause is still unclear, and both genetic and environmental factors may contribute disease aetiology. Prominent amongst the latter is vitamin D which can be obtained either by the action of sunlight on skin or from dietary sources. Serum levels of the main circulating form of vitamin D, 25-hydroxvitamin D (25(OH)D), have been reported to be inversely correlated with endometriosis, suggesting that vitamin D-deficiency may be a risk factor for the disease.
