Does waist circumference lead to prolonged microvascular reactive hyperemia response in young overweight/obese women?
Our results have shown that microvascular dysfunction is independent of metabolic syndrome diagnosis and could be predicted by the waist circumference on young overweight/obese women, reinforcing the relationship between obesity-related microvascular/metabolic disturbances.
FNA of parathyroid adenomas can cause a severe fibrotic process that typically involves adjacent tissues. This reaction dramatically increases the difficulty of surgical resection, often requiring microdissection techniques to preserve nerves and assure complete removal. The fibrosis can cause confusing histology mimicking malignancy. FNA of parathyroid adenomas should be avoided unless absolutely necessary.
