    Abstract Background: Parathyroid carcinoma accounts for <1% of cases of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). This rare condition may present with severe hypercalcemia and bone complications such as osteoclastomas and pathologic fractures. Here, we present a rare condition of panhypopituitarism resulting from an osteoclastoma in the sphenoid bone that invaded the pituitary fossa due to parathyroid carcinoma.
    Conclusion: This case illustrates an unusual presentation of parathyroid carcinoma, in which an osteoclastoma of the sphenoid bone caused hypopituitarism.

    Abstract Introduction: Severe primary hyperparathyroidism may be associated with muscle weakness and fatigue, but little is known about this effect in milder forms of the disease. This study aimed to evaluate physical function and quality of life in patients with normocalcemic (NPHPT) and hypercalcemic (HPHPT) primary hyperparathyroidism.
    Methods: This was a case-control study on 40 postmenopausal women. Thirteen patients with NPHPT, 7 patients with HPHPT, and their controls were studied. Mean serum PTH in the control group was 49.10 ± 12.38 pg/mL. All of the participants answered the Medical Outcomes Short-Form Health Survey (SF36) and were submitted to 2 strength tests (Hand Grip strength and Chair stand test) and 2 performance tests for physical function (Short physical performance battery and Gait speed). Body composition analysis was performed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and multifrequency bioimpedance (BIA).
    Results: Patients with NPHPT had lower grip strength (p = 0.005), a higher mean time of the chair stand test (p = 0.012), a lower mean gait speed (p < 0.001) and a lower score for the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) (p = 0.010) than the control group. Patients with HPHPT had lower handgrip strength (p = 0.027), a higher mean time of the chair stand test (p = 0.017), and a lower score for the SPPB (p = 0.049) than the control group. Patients with NPHPT showed a higher gait speed when compared to HPHPT (p = 0.048). There was no difference between BIA and DXA body composition indices between the PHPT groups and their controls. The evaluation of the SF-36 showed significantly less quality of life in the general health domain among the NPHPT group and in the mental health domain among the HPHPT than in the controls.
    Conclusion: Patients with NPHPT and HPHPT have decreased physical performance and strength.

    Abstract Objective: To determine the prevalence and association of central obesity (CO) and hypertension and its associations with alcohol intake, smoking and physical activity in adolescents.
    Subjects and methods: Cross sectional study in 1,824 students from 29 public schools in Recife.
    Results: 89.6% were normal weight, 6.7% overweight and 3.7% obese; 77.2% were normotensive, 5.9% prehypertensive and 16.9% hypertensive; CO was 10.2% when the 90th percentile was used as cutoff and 25.2% when the 75th percentile was used. There was a higher likelihood of central obesity among students aged 18 to 20 years, smoking and alcohol intake. The probability of hypertension increases if the subject is male, has a waist circumference (WC) ≥ 90, WC ≥ 75 and does not practice physical activity.
    Conclusions: A high prevalence of CO and hypertension was found in adolescents. CO was more frequent in students aged 18 to 20 years, smokers and with alcohol intake and hypertension was associated with male, CO and no physical activity.

    Abstract Vitamin D deficiency and diabetes mellitus are two common conditions and they are widely prevalent across all ages, races, geographical regions, and socioeconomic conditions. Epidemiologic studies have shown association of vitamin D deficiency and increased risk of chronic diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis and type 1 diabetes mellitus. The identification of 1,25(OH)2D receptors and 1-α-hydroxilase expression in pancreatic beta cells, in cells of the immune system, and in various others tissues, besides the bone system support the role of vitamin D in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. Observational studies have revealed an association between 25(OH) D deficiency and the prevalence of type 1 diabetes in children and adolescents. This review will focus on the concept of vitamin D deficiency, its prevalence, and its role in the pathogenesis and risk of diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases.

    Abstract Introduction: Since there is evidence of the action of vitamin D as a modulator of insulin release and atherosclerosis, it may well be that the vitamin D receptor polymorphisms are associated with diabetes and its chronic complications.
    Aims: To examine the associations between vitamin D receptor polymorphisms (FokI and TaqI) and Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and its associated chronic complications in postmenopausal women.
    Methods: This cross-sectional study analyzed 100 postmenopausal women with T2DM (mean age 65.7±7.18 years) and 100 postmenopausal women without diabetes in the control group (mean age 65.1±9.18 years; P=0.1608). We evaluated clinical and metabolic parameters and analyzed TaqI and FokI polymorphisms.
    Results: There were no significant differences in genotype and allele frequencies between patients and controls in either of the polymorphisms studied. In the group of patients with diabetes, there were no significant differences in either polymorphism in relation to stroke, retinopathy, nephropathy, or neuropathy. However, in patients with T2DM and coronary artery disease, f genotype (P=0.0361) and the combination of Ff + ff genotypes were observed less frequently (P=0.0462).
    Conclusion: This study suggests the potential protective factor of FokI polymorphism for coronary artery disease in postmenopausal women with T2DM in the recessive model.

    Abstract Objective: To investigate if vitamin D deficiency is more prevalent in patients with Paget's disease of bone (PDB) than in age-matched controls.
    Subjects and methods: We measured serum 25-OHD in 28 untreated patients with PDB and two control groups: 284 elderly men from an ongoing cohort from our department, and 151 postmenopausal women seen in our outpatient clinic for routine medical evaluation.
    Results: The mean ± SD serum 25-OHD was significantly lower in subjects with PDB (23.76 ± 6.29 ng/mL) than in the control groups of elderly men (27.86 ± 13.52 ng/mL) and postmenopausal women (30.30 ± 9.59 ng/mL), p = 0.015. The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency considering a cut-off point of serum 25-OHD < 30 ng/mL was 85.7% in patients with PDB, and in elderly men and postmenopausal women it was 66.7 % and 54.3%, respectively (p < 0.001).
    Conclusion: These results suggest a high prevalence of hypovitaminosis D in patients with Paget's disease living in the tropics.

    Title translation Instrumento para avaliação de serviço em saúde auditiva infantil: construção e validade.
    Abstract Objective: To validate a matrix of indicators to assess the structure and process of child hearing health services.
    Method: A study of semantic and content validation with specialists in the area of Nursing and Speech therapy. The instrument contained 20 indicators with scores to be analyzed by experts. The condition for the validity suitability of each indicator and scores were an Item-level Content Validity Index (I-CVI) of 0.80 and a Scale-level CVI (S-CVI) of 0.80.
    Results: Twenty-two (22) specialists participated in the study, with 59% being nurses and 41% speech therapists, of which 32% had specializations, 45% had a Master's degree, 18% had a Doctorate degree and 5% had a Post-doctorate degree. The mean I-CVI and S-CVI of the indicators evaluated as suitable were 0.96, while for the suggested scores the I-CVI was 0.80 and the S-CVI was 0.82.
    Conclusion: The matrix of indicators was considered valid for evaluating child hearing health services.
