A HITHERTO infrequently recognized abnormality in patients with osteoblastic metastases is the occurrence of hypocalcemia. It has usually been held that calcium levels are normal in this situation ...

Among patients with stages 4 and 5 CKD, denosumab exhibited a higher risk for emergently treated hypocalcemia versus oral bisphosphonates in those with CKD-MBD (1.53 versus 0.02 percent) than in ...

We report a patient with fetal hydantoin syndrome (FHS) with associated d-transposition of the great arteries (d-TGA) and persistent hypocalcemia. d-TGA and hypocalcemia have each been ...

Key takeaways: Hypocalcemia risk increased with worsening CKD stages, particularly for patients on dialysis. Emergently treated hypocalcemia risk was 3.01% for patients on dialysis taking denosumab.

T waves in this tracing are tall, symmetric, narrow, tented, and pointed, which are all features of hyperkalemia. Additionally, the T waves are "pushed out" by the very long ST segment (especially ...

Denosumab use carries a higher risk for emergency hypocalcemia compared with bisphosphonates in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD). This finding from a large study of Medicare ...
