Abstract Neonatal hyperparathyroidism usually presents as a "failure to thrive" syndrome. It may be transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait and may involve more than one offspring. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Clinical Three clinical presentations are reported for MADD. Two newborn presentations are seen – one with congenital anomalies, and one without. [genico.ch]

Incorporation of rigorous quality control steps throughout the workflow of the pipeline ensures the consistency, validity and accuracy of results. Our pipeline is streamlined to maximize sensitivity without sacrificing specificity. [blueprintgenetics.com]
Patients with adult-onset muscle form of the disease must alter their lifestyle and refrain from rigorous exercise. It is probably prudent to avoid prolonged fasting. [genico.ch]
Rigorous clinical evaluation should precede diagnostic molecular testing. [aetna.com]

Nearly all patients are symptomatic at presentation and end-organ damage (nephrocalcinosis, nephrolithiasis, acute pancreatitis, or bone involvement) is common. [hawaii.edu]
Serum
- Calcium Increased
Signs and symptoms of hypercalcemia in most patients are minimal; however, as the level of calcium increases, the symptoms will be more pronounced. Acute (rapid) increases in calcium levels will cause more severe symptoms. [emedicinehealth.com]
Treatment

Surgery is today the only curative treatment option. [journal.frontiersin.org]
When the life-threatening attack has been controlled, treatment continues with medicine taken by mouth as often as four times a day. [ citation needed ] Long-term treatment of hypoparathyroidism is with vitamin D analogs and calcium supplementation, but [en.wikipedia.org]
This requires postoperative treatment with calcium for up to several days until the hypoparathyroid state resolves, and calcium levels are stabilised. [hypopara.org.uk]
Standard Therapies Treatment The treatment of hypoparathyroidism is directed toward the specific symptoms that are apparent in each individual and the lab tests. [rarediseases.org]
Prognosis
To present the pathologist with current clinical information on diagnosis, differential diagnosis, staging, and prognosis of thyroid cancers, topics presented are: Poorly differentiated thyroid carcinoma; Paraganglimoa; Immunohistochemical markers for [books.google.com]
Prognosis Patients can die from complications of hypercalcemia during the neonatal period from respiratory distress and dramatic hypercalcemia. Last updated: 5/16/2014 [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]
NSHPT can be fatal if partial or total parathyroidectomy is not carried out within the first several weeks of life, with a good short-term prognosis after surgery and rapid involution of bony abnormalities. [iofbonehealth.org]
The disorder carried a grave prognosis if not diagnosed promptly and managed surgically. [link.springer.com]
The prognosis is excellent for many of the other causes of hypercalcemia, if the underlying cause is diagnosed and treated. [emedicinehealth.com]
Etiology
The text presents information on etiology, molecular mechanisms, diagnosis, localization studies, surgical, treatment options, and outcomes. [books.google.com]
Etiology NSHPT is associated in most cases with homozygous inactivating mutations in the CASR gene, localized to 3q21.1. This gene encodes the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR), a member of the subfamily of G protein -coupled transmembrane receptors. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]
After acute symptoms have resolved, an intravenous infusion of calcium should be initiated at a rate to keep the serum calcium levels in the low normal range while an investigation of the etiology ensues. [hawaii.edu]
The etiology of MEN1 syndrome is menin inactivation. [hormones.gr]
In both cases the diagnosis was initially suspected from chest radiographs which were obtained to assess the etiology of fever and respiratory distress in one case and heart murmur in another. [link.springer.com]

Prevention
How Can I Prevent Hypercalcemia? Hypercalcemia cannot be prevented, but early detection of the condition allows for normalization of calcium levels and leads to an early medical evaluation to determine the cause. [emedicinehealth.com]
Precautions are taken to prevent seizures or larynx spasms. The heart is monitored for abnormal rhythms until the person is stable. [en.wikipedia.org]
Cinacalcet has been well tolerated by 28 patients, whereas five individuals complained of heartburn and grade 1 nausea, which did not prevent the completion of the study. [scinapse.io]
How can hypocalcemia be prevented? Vitamin D deficiency is best prevented. The pregnant and breast-feeding woman should receive vitamin D 2000 IU/day. [clinicaladvisor.com]
Avoidance of fasting is important to prevent symp- tomatic episodes. [genico.ch]
