Clinical observation of a young woman with chronic kidney disease IV stage and hyperparathyroidism is presented. Ultrasound and99mTc-sestamibi scintigraphy of the anterior surface of the neck visualized a tumor of the left upper parathyroid gland. In a histological examination of distant education was diagnosed a solid parathyroid adenoma. The difficulty of differential diagnosis between primary and secondary/tertiary hyperparathyroidism in chronic kidney disease is discussed.

Vitiligo is a common polygenic autoimmune disease in which the foci of depigmentation are formed on the skin and/or mucous membranes as a result of the death of melanocytes. There are several hypotheses for the pathogenesis of the disease, the leading role among them is played the autoimmune hypothesis. This review summarizes the available literature data on the prevalence and structure of comorbid endocrine autoimmune pathology in vitiligo patients. ⋯ In addition, it was shown that the prevalence of endocrine diseases increases with increasing area of depigmentation. The data obtained justify the advisability of conducting a timely examination of vitiligo patients with the aim of early detection of comorbid diseases and the appointment of appropriate treatment. Further studies are needed to investigate the effect of the identified associations on the course of vitiligo and comorbid endocrinopathies, as well as the effectiveness of therapy and the quality of life of patients.

To assess the influence of diabetes mellitus and obesity on contrast-induced acute kidney injury risk in patients with chronic coronary artery disease requiring percutaneous coronary intervention. ⋯ Diabetes mellitus was not associated with higher incidence of contrast-induced acute kidney injury. The prevalence of contrast-induced kidney injury was higher in the group of patients with BMI30 kg/m2, but didnt meet statistical significance and needs further evaluation in larger studies.

To study the possibility of using polymorphisms of genesTCF7L2,FABP2,KCNQ1,ADIPOQas markers for predicting the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) in the population of Novosibirsk. ⋯ The rs7903146 polymorphism of theTCF7L2gene confirmed its association with the prognosis of the development of T2D, which indicates the possibility of considering it as a candidate for inclusion in a diabetes risk meter. Variants of risk meters have been developed to assess the prognosis of the development of diabetes mellitus 2 in men and women aged 4569 years during 10 years of follow-up. The association with the prognosis of the development of T2D polymorphisms rs1799883 of theFABP2gene, rs2237892 of theKCNQ1gene and rs6773957 of theADIPOQgene was not found.
