Usefulness of intraoperative PTH measurement in primary and secondary hyperparathyroidism: experience with 109 patients

INTRODUCTION: Intraoperative parathyroid hormone measurement (IO-PTH) was first described in 1988 and it's potentially useful in predicting cure after parathyroidectomy. The aim of this study was to evaluate IO-PTH decay profile and the utility of this procedure in predicting cure in primary (PHH) and secondary (SHH) hyperparathyroidism due to renal disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS: 109 patients were evaluated from 06/2000 to 12/2004. 33 had PHH and 76 SHH (52 in dialysis, 24 with renal graft). IO-PTH was measured at times 0 (before resection), 10, 20 minutes after parathyroidectomy using immunometric assay (Elecsys-PTH/Immunoassay-Roche). Time necessary to perform assay: 10 minutes. RESULTS: HPP patients: IO-PTH average decrease 79.2% from basal levels after 10 minutes. HPS: IO-PTH average decrease 85.8% and 87.6% after 10 minutes in dialysis and renal graft patients respectively. All patients were cured, except 2 (1 PHH, 1 SHH), because of a double adenoma and ectopic (mediastinal) parathyroid respectively. Failure in IO-PTH decrease was observed in both. CONCLUSION: IO-PTH measurement is useful in improving surgical success rates in PHH and SHH.INTRODUÇÃO: A medida de PTH intra-operatório (PTH-IO) foi inicialmente descrita em 1988, sendo potencialmente útil na definição de sucesso após a paratiroidectomia. OBJETIVOS: Avaliar prospectivamente perfil de decaimento do PTH-IO e sua capacidade de prever sucesso cirúrgico no hiperparatiroidismo primário (HPP) e secundário à insuficiência renal (HPS). PACIENTES E MÉTODOS: 109 pacientes operados entre 06/2000 e 12/2004, sendo 33 HPP, 76 HPS (52 em diálise, 24 transplantados renais). PTH-IO: método imunométrico rápido (Elecsys-PTH/Immunoassay-Roche); tempo para resultado: 10 minutos. Coletas de sangue periférico nos tempos basal, 10 e 20 minutos pós-paratiroidectomia. RESULTADOS: HPP: queda média de PTH de 79,2% aos 10 minutos. HPS: queda média de PTH de 85,8% e 87,6% aos 10 minutos nos pacientes diálise e transplantados respectivamente. A cirurgia foi bem sucedida em todos, exceto em 2 pacientes (1 HPP, 1 HPS). Em ambos não houve queda PTH-IO, sendo constatado adenoma duplo no HPP e paratiróide ectópica no HPS. CONCLUSÃO: Medida PTH-IO fornece resultados confiáveis em tempo rápido, sendo capaz de discriminar persistência da doença se mantidos níveis elevados.Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP) Escola Paulista de MedicinaUNIFESP, EPMSciEL

The shift from high to low turnover bone disease after parathyroidectomy is associated with the progression of vascular calcification in hemodialysis patients: A 12-month follow-up study

Parathyroidectomy (PTX) may cause low levels of PTH, leading to an excessive reduction of bone turnover, which is associated with poor outcomes in dialysis patients, including vascular calcification (VC). We aimed to prospectively investigate the impact of PTX on bone remodeling and its potential consequence on the progression of VC in hemodialysis patients. In this prospective study, 19 hemodialysis patients with severe secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT) were evaluated. All patients underwent laboratorial tests and coronary tomography at baseline and, 6 and 12 months after PTXbone biopsy was performed at baseline and 12-month. At baseline, all patients had increased PTH levels up to 2500 pg/mL and high turnover bone disease in their bone biopsies. Fourteen (74%) patients had VC. During the follow-up, there was a significant decrease of PTH at 6 and 12-month. At 12-month, 90% of the patients evolved to low turnover bone disease. During the period of the hungry bone syndrome (first 6 months), no change of coronary calcium score was observed. However, calcium score increased significantly thereafter (12(th) month). There was an association between VC progression and the severity of low turnover bone disease. In conclusion, the shift from high to low turnover bone disease after PTX occurs in parallel to VC progression, contributing to the understanding of the complex pathophysiology involving mineral metabolism and cardiovascular disease in hemodialysis patients.National Counsel of Technological and Scientific Development (CNPq)Univ Fed Sao Paulo, Nephrol Div, Sao Paulo, BrazilUniv Fed Parana, Nephrol Div, Curitiba, Parana, BrazilUniv Fed Sao Paulo, Head & Neck Surg Div, Sao Paulo, BrazilUniv Sao Paulo, Cardiol Div, Sao Paulo, BrazilUniv Fed Sao Paulo, Nephrol Div, Sao Paulo, BrazilWeb of Scienc

Intraoperative PTH cutoff definition to predict successful parathyroidectomy in secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism

In order to improve success rates in surgery of renal hyperparathyroidism, we evaluated intraoperative PTH (IOPTH) measurement utility. METHOD: 86 patients underwent total parathyroidectomy with intramuscular presternal autotransplantation from 04/2000 to 10/2009 and were followed for 26.5 months on average (prospective cohort). Patients were divided in secondary (SHPT) and tertiary hyperparathyroidism (THPT). SHPT group was composed by patients under dialysis treatment, THPT group included renal grafted ones. IOPTH (Elecsys-PTH-Immunoassay/Roche) was measured at anesthesia induction (IOPTH-0') and 20 minutes (IOPTH-20') after parathyroidectomy. RESULTS: 80.2% (69/86) presented with 80% decrease or more in the IOPTH-20' and all were cured. In 11/86 patients (12.7%), a lower IOPTH-20' drop (70-79%) was observed, and 2 of them (18.1%) failed to cure. 6/86 (6.9%) patients presented IO-PTH-20' decrease of less than 70%: two were cured, in three a supernumerary/ectopic parathyroid was found and removed, and in one of these six patients, surgery was finished after 4-gland excision and the patient failure to cure. CONCLUSION: IOPTH-20' decrease of 80% or more compared to IOPTH-0' predicts cure in all renal patients throughout follow-up. A decay of less than 70% points to missed or hyperfunctioning supernumerary gland and is predictive of surgical failure in 66.6%. A marginal IOPTH drop of 70-79% leaves the decision whether or not surgery should be continued up to the experienced surgeon.Avaliamos medida de PTH intraoperatório (IO-PTH) no intuito de melhorar índices de sucesso no tratamento cirúrgico do hiperparatiroidismo associado à doença renal. MÉTODO: Oitenta e seis pacientes realizaram paratiroidectomia total com autoimplante em musculatura pré-esternal entre abril de 2000 e outubro de 2009 com 26,5 meses de seguimento em média, prospectivo. Foram divididos em dois grupos: hiperparatiroidismo secundário (HPS) - pacientes em diálise e hiperparatiroidismo terciário (HPT) - transplantados renais. Medido IO-PTH (Elecsys-PTH-Immunoassay/Roche) na indução anestésica (IOPTH-0') e 20 minutos (IOPTH-20') após a retirada das paratireoides. RESULTADOS: 80,2% (69/86) do total de pacientes apresentaram queda de 80% ou mais do IOPTH-20' e todos se curaram. Em 11/86 (12,7%) pacientes, foi observada queda entre 70-79%, sendo que dois (18,1%) deles evoluíram com falha cirúrgica. 6/86 (6,9%) pacientes apresentaram redução de IOPTH-20' menor do que 70%: dois foram curados; três apresentaram paratireoide supranumerária/ectópica que foi localizada e removida; um paciente evoluiu com persistência da doença após término da cirurgia com a retirada de quatro paratireoides. CONCLUSÃO: Queda do IOPTH-20' de 80% ou mais foi preditor de cura em todos os pacientes renais durante o período avaliado. Redução menor que 70% sugere paratireoide hiperfuncionante não reconhecida/supranumerária, sendo preditor de falha cirúrgica em 66.6%. A queda marginal de 70%-79% delega ao cirurgião experiente a decisão de continuar ou não o procedimento cirúrgico.UNIFESP-EPMUNIFESP-EPM Departamento ORL-CCPUNIFESP-EPM Laboratório de Endocrinologia e MetabologiaUNIFESP-EPM Ambulatório de Doenças Osteo-MetabólicasUNIFESP, EPM, Depto.

Influência do critério de seleção de tecido paratiroideano com ou sem estereomicroscopia para autoimplante no resultado do tratamento cirúrgico do hiperparatiroidismo associado a doença renal crônica

INTRODUCTION:Several methods have been proposed to improve operative success in renal hyperparathyroidism.OBJECTIVE:To evaluate stereomicroscopy in parathyroid tissue selection for total parathyroidectomy with autotransplantation in secondary (SHPT)/tertiary (THPT) hyperparathyroidism.METHODS:118 renal patients underwent surgery from April of 2000 to October 2009. They were divided into two groups: G1, 66 patients operated from April of 2000 to May of 2005, with tissue selection based on macroscopic observation; G2, 52 patients operated from March of 2008 to October 2009 with stereomicroscopy for tissue selection searching for the presence of adipose cells. All surgeries were performed by the same surgeon. Patients presented SHPT (dialysis treatment) or THPT (renal-grafted). Follow-up was 12-36 months. Intra-operative parathyroid hormone (PTH) was measured in 100/118 (84.7%) patients.RESULTS:Data are presented as means. G1 included 66 patients (38 SHPT, 24 females/14 males; 40.0 years of age; 28 THPT, 14 females/14 males; 44 years of age). G2 included 52 patients (29 SHPT, 11 females/18 males; 50.7 years of age; 23 THPT, 13 females/10 males, 44.4 years of age). SHPT patients from G2 presented preoperative serum calcium higher than those of SHPT patients in G1 (p < 0.05), suggesting a more severe disease. Definitive hypoparathyroidism was found in seven of 118 patients (5.9%). Graft-dependent recurrence occurred in four patients, two in each group. All occurred in dialysis patients.CONCLUSION:Stereomicroscopy in SHPT/THPT surgical treatment may be a useful tool to standardize parathyroid tissue selection.INTRODUÇÃO:Diversos métodos têm sido propostos com intuito de melhorar índices de sucesso cirúrgico no tratamento do hiperparatiroidismo associado à doença renal crônica (DRC).OBJETIVOS:Avaliar uso do estereomicroscópio na seleção de tecido paratiroideano na paratiroidectomia total com autoimplante em pacientes com DRC.MÉTODOS:118 pacientes DRC operados entre 04/2000-10/2009 foram divididos em: G1-66 pacientes operados entre 04/2000-05/2005 cuja seleção de tecido foi realizada por método convencional (macroscopia); G2-52 pacientes operados entre 03/2008-10/2009, cuja seleção de tecido foi realizada com uso da estereomicroscopia: Leica-Stereomicroscope (amplificação: 10×-80×). Pacientes foram ainda categorizados em hiperparatiroidismo secundário (HPS) ou terciário (HPT) (HPS-diálise/HPT-transplantados renais). Seguimento pós-operatório: 12-36 meses. PTH intraoperatório medido 100/118 pacientes (84.7%). Todos pacientes foram operados pelo mesmo cirurgião.RESULTADOS:Dados em média. G1, 66 pacientes (38 HPS, 24f/14m; 40 anos; 28 HPT, 14f/14m; 44 anos). G2, 52 pacientes (29 HPS, 11f/18m; 50,7 anos; 23 HPT, 13f/10m; 44,4 anos). Pacientes dialíticos do G2 apresentaram cálcio pré-operatório maior que G1 (p < 0,05), sugerindo doença mais severa. Hipoparatiroidismo definitivo: 7/118 (5,9%) pacientes: G1, 4/66 (6%); G2, 3/52 (5,7%). Recorrência do hiperparatiroidismo no autoimplante: 4 pacientes, 2 em cada grupo. Todas foram em pacientes em diálise.CONCLUSÃO:Estereomicroscopia no tratamento do hiperparatiroidismo associado à DRC é útil na padronização da técnica de seleção de tecido para o autoimplante.Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP) Escola Paulista de Medicina Department of Endocrinology and MetabologyUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP) Escola Paulista de Medicina Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and NeckUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP) Escola Paulista de Medicina Department of NephrologyUNIFESP, EPM, Department of Endocrinology and MetabologyUNIFESP, EPM, Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and NeckUNIFESP, EPM, Department of NephrologyFAPESP: 07/51056-5SciEL

Antibacterial Activity of Endophytic Actinomycetes Isolated from the Medicinal Plant \u3cem\u3eVochysia divergens\u3c/em\u3e (Pantanal, Brazil)

Endophytic actinomycetes from medicinal plants produce a wide diversity of secondary metabolites (SM). However, to date, the knowledge about endophytes from Brazil remains scarce. Thus, we analyzed the antimicrobial potential of 10 actinomycetes isolated from the medicinal plant Vochysia divergens located in the Pantanal sul-mato-grossense, an unexplored wetland in Brazil. Strains were classified as belonging to the Aeromicrobium, Actinomadura, Microbacterium, Microbispora, Micrococcus, Sphaerisporangium, Streptomyces, and Williamsia genera, through morphological and 16S rRNA phylogenetic analyzes. A susceptibility analysis demonstrated that the strains were largely resistant to the antibiotics oxacillin and nalidixic acid. Additionally, different culture media (SG and R5A), and temperatures (28 and 36°C) were evaluated to select the best culture conditions to produce the active SM. All conditions were analyzed for active metabolites, and the best antibacterial activity was observed from metabolites produced with SG medium at 36°C. The LGMB491 (close related to Aeromicrobium ponti) extract showed the highest activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), with a MIC of 0.04 mg/mL, and it was selected for SM identification. Strain LGMB491 produced 1-acetyl-β-carboline (1), indole-3-carbaldehyde (2), 3-(hydroxyacetyl)-indole (4), brevianamide F (5), and cyclo-(L-Pro-L-Phe) (6) as major compounds with antibacterial activity. In this study, we add to the knowledge about the endophytic community from the medicinal plant V. divergens and report the isolation of rare actinomycetes that produce highly active metabolites
