Can subunit ‐specific phenotypes guide surveillance imaging decisions in asymptomatic SDH mutation carriers?
ConclusionsUsing this data, we suggest surveillance screening of asymptomatic carriers can be tailored to the underlyingSDH subunit and review possible surveillance programmes. (Source: Clinical Endocrinology)

Higher circulating androgens and higher physical activity levels are associated with less central adiposity and lower risk of cardiovascular death in older men
ConclusionHigher circulating androgens and higher PA were associated with less central adiposity at baseline and fewer CVD deaths during follow ‐up. These findings are consistent with a potential additive effect of androgens and PA on cardiometabolic outcomes in older men.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Primary aldosteronism is associated with decreased low ‐density and high‐density lipoprotein particle concentrations and increased GlycA, a pro‐inflammatory glycoprotein biomarker
ConclusionsPrimary aldosteronism is associated with lower concentrations of LDL and HDL particles and to some extent also with lower TG and TRL particle concentrations. PA is also characterized by increased GlycA levels, indicating enhanced low ‐grade chronic inflammation. Low HDL particle concentrations and increased GlycA could contribute to accelerated cardiovascular disease development in PA. (Source: Clinical Endocrinology)

Increased mortality and morbidity in patients with chronic hypoparathyroidism: A population ‐based study
ConclusionPatients with hypoparathyroidism have an increased risk of cataract and epilepsy. Non ‐surgical hypoparathyroidism is associated with increased mortality and additional morbidities. (Source: Clinical Endocrinology)

A 5 α‐reductase (SRD5A2) polymorphism is associated with serum testosterone and sex hormone–binding globulin in men, while aromatase (CYP19A1) polymorphisms are associated with oestradiol and luteinizing hormone reciprocally
ConclusionsA 5 α‐reductase polymorphism predicts circulating T and SHBG, while aromatase polymorphisms predict E2 and LH in reciprocal fashion. Age and aromatase polymorphisms interact to affect E2 and LH. How these functional polymorphisms impact on male reproductive and general health outcomes requires furthe r study.

Laparoscopic hand ‐assisted adrenalectomy for tumours larger than 5 cm
ConclusionHand ‐assisted laparoscopic surgery offers a safe reproducible approach to adrenal surgery combining minimally invasive surgery with tactile integration. Although previously described in small numbers, this represents the largest case series to date. HAL is a safe minimally invasive surgical option for larger tumours, including malignancies. The HAL technique may additionally offer a shorter learning curve for trainee adrenal surgeons. (Source: Clinical Endocrinology)

Paediatric ‐onset and adult‐onset Graves' disease share multiple genetic risk factors
ConclusionsThe results of our study revealed that POGD and AOGD share multiple common genetic risk variants. Moreover, we demonstrated for the first time thatHCP5 polymorphism is associated with an earlier age of GD onset in a dose ‐dependent manner. (Source: Clinical Endocrinology)

Changes of computed tomography ‐based body composition after adrenalectomy in patients with endogenous hypercortisolism
ConclusionsThe severity of cortisol excess was associated with greater improvement of L3 VFA,VSR, and SMD 1 year after adrenalectomy. These CT ‐based markers may allow more objective assessment of treatment benefit at earlier stage.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved. (Source: Clinical Endocrinology)

No evidence of adverse fertility and pregnancy outcomes in patients with unrecognized and untreated multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1
ConclusionsThere was no adverse impact of MEN 1 on patient fertility overall; however, MEN 1 ‐related pathology may have impaired the reproductive potential of a subset of individuals with pituitary disease. (Source: Clinical Endocrinology)
