significance of parathyroid hormone (pth) radioimmunoassay in the diagnosis of primary hyperparathyroidism: an experience based on 63 surgically proven cases.the significance of pth-radioimmunoassay was assessed in 63 surgically proven cases of primary hyperparathyroidism. to detect hyperparathyroidism, an increase in the free serum ca index, [1-(8 x alb + 2 x glb + 3)/100] x ca, has the highest predictive value (100%) for a positive test but a low predictive value (11.8%) for a negative test. it was necessary to improve the criteria to rule out the diagnosis of hyperparathyroidism. we therefore carried out a pth radioimmunoassay employing kits made ...20133622392

peptostreptococcus anaerobius induces intracellular cholesterol biosynthesis in colon cells to induce proliferation and causes dysplasia in mice.stool samples from patients with colorectal cancer (crc) have a higher abundance of peptostreptococcus anaerobius than stool from individuals without crc, based on metagenome sequencing. we investigated whether p anaerobius contributes to colon tumor formation in mice and its possible mechanisms of carcinogenesis.201728126350
use of an innovative simple method for anaerobiosis in the diagnosis and management of infections in two unusual cases.technical limitations restrict routine anaerobe isolation from clinical materials in resource-limited laboratories. an innovative two steps combustion candle jar technique may be suitable for such setup. this system was tried with one case of chronic osteomyelitis developed on supracondyler compound fracture. porphyromonas spp. was isolated and identified. vancomycin was recommended based on in vitro sensitivity test, but the leg was amputed after receiving a resistant drug gentamycin. while in ...201727144078
bacterial communities found in placental tissues are associated with severe chorioamnionitis and adverse birth outcomes.preterm birth is a major cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity worldwide. bacterial infection and the subsequent inflammatory response are recognised as an important cause of preterm birth. it is hypothesised that these organisms ascend the cervical canal, colonise placental tissues, cause chorioamnionitis and in severe cases infect amniotic fluid and the foetus. however, the presence of bacteria within the intrauterine cavity does not always precede chorioamnionitis or preterm birth. wherea ...201728700642
