[Influence of different thyroidectomy on perioperative blood calcium concentration]
Objective:
lo discuss the inmtluence of different thyroidectomy on perioperative blood calcium concentration.
Method:
Total number of patients was 240. These patients of thyroid tumors were recruited. Clinical and follow-up datum were retrospective analyzed.
Result:
Patients were divided into four groups by different operative methods. Group one was patients taken one-side thyroidectomy, group two taken one-side lymph node dissection plus, group three taken two-sides thyroidectomy,and group four taken one or two sides lymph node dissection plus. Group two was easier to become hypocalcemia and their calcium concentration decreased more remarkably, compared with group one. Patients taken two-sides thyroidectomy had the familiar outcome.
Conclusion:
Patients taken lymph node dissection were easier to become hypocalcemia, compared with patients only taken thyroidectomy.

Hormones That Influence Osteoblasts and/or Maintain the Matrix
Several hormones are necessary for controlling bone growth and maintaining the bone matrix. The pituitary gland secretes growth hormone (GH), which, as its name implies, controls bone growth. This happens in several ways: first, it triggers chondrocyte...
