Pseudohypoparathyroidism Type IB with Subclinical Hypothyroidism: a Pedigree Investigation and Literature Review
1Department of Endocrinology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University, Bengbu, Anhui Province, People's Republic of China.
Abstract:
Pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) is a rare genetic disease characterized by hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, and elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) in serum. Here, we report a case of a patient with pseudohypoparathyroidism type IB (PHPIB) and subclinical hypothyroidism, analyze the clinical and genetic data of his family members, review the relevant literature, and classify and discuss the pathogenesis and clinical characteristics of each subtype. Finally, we discuss the treatment approach to improve clinicians' understanding of the disease.

Pedigree Analysis
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...

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. As a result, the body is unable to produce sufficient insulin, and individuals with...

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is classified into subtypes based on the predominant bowel habits as determined by the Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS). The subtypes are:
Hormones and Bone Tissue
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...
Synthesis and Regulation of Thyroid Hormones
Upon reaching the thyroid gland, TSH stimulates the follicular cells' active uptake of iodide ions from the blood. The ions diffuse to the apical surface of the cells and are oxidized to iodine. The...
