Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 111, No. 8 (February 25, 2014), pp. 3092-3097 (6 pages) Parathyroid adenomas (PAs) causing primary ...

An early laboratory success is taking researchers a step closer to parathyroid gland transplants that could one day prevent a currently untreatable form of bone loss associated with thyroid surgery.

We examined by microsatellite allelotyping 69 hyperplastic lesions of the parathyroid glands from 23 patients with refractory, uremic hyperparathyroidism. Allelic changes, at least at one chromosomal ...

UCLA engineers are touting a lens-free cell phone microscope -- a telemedicine innovation lauded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, National Geographic and the National Science Foundation-- as a ...

THE etiology of hypocalcemia is usually not difficult to define. In most cases it is due to one of the following: postoperative, idiopathic or pseudohypoparathyroidism; rickets and osteomalacia; ...

In some cases, looking at a living cell under a microscope can cause it damage or worse, can kill it. Now, a new kind of microscope has been invented by researchers from the Howard Hughes Medical ...
