Role of Intact and C-Terminal FGF-23 Assays in the Investigation of Metabolic Bone Disease.

Jethwa Kishan , Bhatti Sumbal , Chipchase Allison , Piec Isabelle , Fraser William , Turner Jeremy

Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) is a phosphatonin produced by osteocytes in response to serum phosphate concentration. Immunoassays are widely employed to detect C-terminal fragments of FGF-23 (cFGF-23). Quantitative assays for intact FGF-23 (iFGF-23) measurement are also available. Causes of increased FGF-23 include Tumour Induced Osteomalacia (TIO), X-linked hypophosphataemic rickets (XLH) and end stage renal disease (ESRD). We observed that some individuals, with no id...

Background: The published data on the natural history of (presumed) non-functioning pituitary microadenomas (micro-NFAs) is possibly compromised by small sample sizes, short follow-up and inclusion of cases with other pathologies in the analyses.Objective: To clarify the long-term outcomes of micro-NFAs in a large cohort of patients.Methods: We conducted a multi-centre, retrospective, cohort study involving 22 UK endocrine departme...

Background: Large series of patients elucidating the natural history of conservatively managed non-functioning pituitary macroadenomas (macroNFPAs) and relevant prognostic factors are not available.Objectives: Clarify long-term outcomes of macroNFPAs in large cohort of patients.Methods: Multi-centre [21 UK endocrine departments-UK NFPA consortium], retrospective, cohort study of ca...
