Spondyloarthropathy occurring in long-standing idiopathic hypoparathyroidism
Abstract:
Idiopathic hypoparathyroidism can rarely present with extensive spondyloarthropathic changes that closely resemble ankylosing spondylitis, diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis, or fluorosis. Clinical presentation of the patient, typical laboratory parameters, and radiological findings aid in their differential diagnosis. Extensive spondyloarthropathy with normal sacroiliac joints in patients with neuromuscular symptoms like tetany, paresthesia, and hypocalcemia should raise the possibility of this entity.

The Parathyroid Glands
Oxyphil cells, whose functions remain elusive, emerge during late puberty, adding a layer of complexity to the parathyroid gland's intricacies. In contrast, principal parathyroid cells undertake a vital role by...

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...
Gastritis-II: Pathophysiology
In acute gastritis, the gastric mucosa becomes swollen and red and undergoes superficial erosion. Superficial ulceration may lead to bleeding.
In chronic gastritis, persistent or repeated insults lead to chronic inflammatory changes and, eventually, thinning or atrophy of the gastric tissue.
Gastritis can stem from various causes, each...
