  Direct examination of the sputum was positive for alcohol-resistant bacilli and cultures grew Mycobacterium tuberculosis sensitive to all drugs. A full course of anti-tuberculous treatment was started for 6 months. [academic.oup.com]

Other novel parathyroid autoantigens are starting to be elucidated, suggesting that new approaches to treatment, such as CaSR antagonists or agonists (calcilytics/calcimimetics), may be worthwhile. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Hypoparathyroidism prognosis If hypoparathyroidism is adequately treated with calcium and vitamin D, the outlook (prognosis) is good. However, this relies on you taking medication daily for life. [patient.info]

Prognosis - Hypoparathyroidism Hypoparathyroidism may result in numerous complications if not treated. The following complications are due to low calcium levels, most of which are likely to improve with adequate treatment: Tetany. [checkorphan.org]

They are organised into groups, and further divided into clinical, etiological or histopathological sub-types. [orpha.net]

One logical way to classify the different etiologies of hypocalcemia is to break them down into LOW PTH STATES and HIGH PTH STATES. Today I'll review the HYPOCALCEMIA WITH LOW PH STATES, or in other words, the causes of hypoparathyroidism. [renalfellow.blogspot.com]

Since we were not able to measure CaSR antibodies we relied on other clinical and laboratory findings that supported our hypothesis of autoimmune etiology. [omicsonline.org]
