Cognitive Function in Individuals with Chronic Hypoparathyroidism - A Prospective Observational Study
Tmava-Berisha A, Fahrleitner-Pammer A, Stross T, Geiger S, Geiger C, Fellendorf F, Scherkl M, Finner A, Holl A, Dalkner N, Reininghaus E and Amrein K
"Brain fog" is a frequently reported, distressing experience among individuals with chronic hypoparathyroidism, characterized by reduced concentration and reduced ability to perform day-to-day tasks. However, evidence linking chronic hypoparathyroidism to cognitive impairment is limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to explore cognitive function in these patients using a validated neurocognitive test battery, compare results with a matched healthy control group, and analyze the frequency of cognitive impairment based on normative data.

Enhanced Outcomes in Type 2 Diabetes Patients with Acute Kidney Disease Through Thiazolidinedione
Chang LY, Liao HW, Chen JY and Wu VC
Patients with diabetes are prone to acute kidney injury with the potential transition to chronic kidney disease. Few studies have investigated the role of thiazolidinedione (TZD) in these patients under acute kidney disease (AKD) phase.
Growth Hormone Therapy in Chronic Heart Failure: a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
Theodorakis N, Feretzakis G, Kreouzi M, Anagnostou D, Hitas C, Verykios VS and Nikolaou M
Guideline-directed medical therapy of heart failure (HF) primarily targets neurohormonal activation. However, growth hormone (GH) has emerged as a potential treatment for the multiple hormonal deficiency syndrome, which is associated with worse outcomes in HF.
Associations between Sensitivity to Thyroid Hormones and Visceral Adiposity in Euthyroid Adults
Wei Y, Yang M, Liu J, Wang Y and Wang G
The study aimed to explore the association between thyroid hormone (TH) sensitivity and obesity assessed by body mass index (BMI) and visceral adiposity index (VAI) in euthyroid adults.
Biomarkers improving genetic and metastatic disease prediction in paraganglioma: insights from a prospective study
Drossart T, Buffet A, Janbain A, Ottolenghi C, Amar L, Libé R, Drui D, Lussey-Lepoutre C, Mancini M, Lounis T, Guénégou-Arnoux A, Méatchi T, Bertherat J, Burnichon N, Favier J, Gimenez-Roqueplo AP and
Identifying the risk of malignancy and genetic status in primary paraganglioma or pheochromocytoma (PPGL) is a key challenge. The aim was to assess the diagnostic accuracy of genomic, metabolomic and histopathological biomarkers for predicting metastatic and genetic status.
Glycaemic control and adult height: a nationwide Swedish cohort study on childhood type 1 diabetes
Smew AI, Lundholm C, Gong T, Lichtenstein P, Sävendahl L and Almqvist C
To assess adult height outcomes across levels of glycaemic control in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes, as well as to investigate the impact of sex, age at disease onset, and timing of glycaemic control in relation to puberty.
Increased risk of fracture among patients with iron overload: a population-based matched cohort study
Burden AM, Martinez-De la Torre A, Burkard T, Immoos M, Hofbauer LC, Steinbicker AU and Rauner M
Iron overloading disorders are associated with decreased bone mineral density. However, evidence on fracture risk is scarce. Therefore, we evaluated the risk of fracture associated with iron overload disorders, compared to matched controls.

Bone Material Strength index is low in Patients with Cushing's Syndrome even after long-term remission
Schoeb M, Sintenie PJC, Bakker LEH, Biermasz NR, van Haalen FM, Nijhoff MF, de Vries F, Winter EM, Pereira AM and Appelman-Dijkstra NM
Hypercortisolism in endogenous Cushing's syndrome (CS) results in decreased bone mineral density (BMD) and increased fracture risk. Although after remission BMD improves, fracture rate remains elevated, suggesting that BMD may not adequately reflect fracture risk in this group. The aim was to evaluate bone material properties, another component of bone quality, using Impact Microindentation (IMI) in patients with CS in remission.
Serum metabolomic profiling of incident type 2 diabetes mellitus in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis and Rotterdam Study
