25
Prolactin levels must be measured in all patients with....
hypogonadism and low LH/FSH
26
hypopituitarism leads to deficiency of
multiple hormones
27
hypopituitarism in young children see
growth retardation ( decreased growth hormone)
28
hypopituitarism in older children see
delayed puberty (decreased LH/FSH)
29
hypopituitarism in premeopausal see

148
management type 2 DM-lifestyle intervention and metformin, if HbA1c > or = 7% do one of below
add basal insulin-most effective add sulfonylurea-least expensive, add below if not controlled add glitazone-avoid hypoglycemia-add sulfonyl if still not control then basal insulin etc.
149
insulin tx in type 2 DM:hs NPH or daily lantus (10units or 0.2u/kg starting dose)->FBS daily, inc dose by 2units every 3 days (4 units if FBS.180)until target range 70-130. after 3 mo if HbA1c.=or > 7%, FBS ac and hs.
if glucose incr still, add rapid acting insulin: pre lunch bs incr-add insulin before breakfast pre dinner incr bs- add insulin before lunch if incr at hs-add insulin before dinner
150
goals for tx of diabetes
HbA1c 40 in male, >50 female,TG50,female>60
151
insulin dosing
total dose .2-0.4 unit/kg/d one-half dose as basal insulin, other half give rapid acting (humalog, novolog) divided equally before each meal
152
ideally prandial insulin is determinedby amount of carbs about to be consumed ( 1 unit for 10-15gm carb) plus a correction factor predicated on preprandial glucose ( 1 extra unit for every 40-50mg/dl above 100)
see above
153

Tx hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state
NS initially and change to 1/2 NS after hemodyn. stable. water deficit is 9-10 liters and should be replaced over 2-3 days. insulin bolus 0.1 unit/kg then drip 0.1unit/kg/hr when glucose 200-300 add D5 and reduce insulinto 0.05-0.1unit/kg
166
manifestations of vit D deficiency
osteomalacia, ricketts in children, osteopenia/osteoporosis muscle weakness and incr risk of falls incr risk of: cancer(breast,colon,prostate), HTN, CV dz,diabetes, metabolic syndr, MS, schizophrenia, depression
167
Osteomalacia-manifestation of vit D deficiency see
bone pains/tenderness, fracture after minimal trauma, pseudofractures Lab: calcium-normal or decreased phosphorous-normal to decreased increased alk phos
168
vitamin D testing
measure 25(OH)D2 and D3 normal 30-60 <20 tx 50,000u D2 weekly for 6- weeks then 800u/d of D3 20-30 tx vit D3 800u/d
169
causes of vit D deficiency
reduced skin synthesis-decr sun exposure, sunscreens,skin pigmentation,aging decreased bioavailability-malabsorption, obesity increased catabolism-anticonvulsants, glucocorticoids, HAART breastfeeding, pregnancy, lactation
170
cont causes of vit D deficiency
decr synthesis of 25(OH)D-liver disease incr urinary loss of 25(OH)D-nephrotic syndrome decr synthesis of 1-25(OH)2-chronic kidney disease tumor induced osteomalacia-phosphaturia primary hyperparathyroidism-decr 25(OH)D, incr 25(OH)2D
171
cont causes of vit D deficiency
granulomatous diseases-decr 25(OH)D incr 1-25(OH)2D thyrotoxicosis-incr metabolism of 25(OH)D heritable disorders-ricketts
172
hypercalcemia with high or normal PTH
hyperparathyroidism lithium familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia
173
hypercalcemia with lor or undetected PTH-
if chronic:sarcoid,thyrotoxicosis, adrenal insuff., immobilization, drugs(thiazides, vit A&D, calcium carbonate. if acute:MALIGNANCY-if incr Ca, decr P-humoral -if incr Ca, P normal-metastatic myeloma

MEN I
hyperparathyroidism pituitary pancreatic tumors
176
MEN IIa
hyperparathyroidism pheochromocytoma medullary carcinoma
177
MEN IIb
pheochromocytoma medullary carcinoma mucosal neuromas marfanoid habitus
178
familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia
autosomal dominant decr calcium excretion<0.1 parathyroidectomy DOES NOT correct calcium
179
hyperparathyroidism-indications for surgery
age 400,hx life threat hypercalcemia symptomatic hypercalcemia renal stones , Ca >1 above normal , decr bone mass (T score<60
180
hyperparathyroidism procedures
sestamibi parathyroid scanning (best),neck ultrasound | indicated if minimally invasive surgery is planned
181
hyperparathyroidism-medical treatment
avoid thiazides, normal calcium intake, maint 25(OH)D>20 bisphosphonates if low bone mass Cinacalcet(calcimimetic agent) use in symptomatic pt not surgical candidates monitor calcium and cratinine annually and bone density 1-2 years
182
hypercalcemia of malignancy
``` humoral metastatic osteoclast activating factors ectopic PTH secretion (rare) coexisting primary hyperparathyroidism ```
183
hypercalcemia of malignancy-humoral
PTHrP increased Ca, decreased P squamous cell ca of the lung and other sites other tumors:renal, breast, ovary, endometrium
184
hypercalcemia of malignancy-metastatic
``` breast prostate thyroid lung kidney ```
185
hypercalcemia of malignancy-osteoclast activating factors
interleukin-1 TNF 1-25(OH)2 vit D
186
tx of hypercalcemia
hydrate with NS, loop diuretics, phosphate repletion if P <3.0 Meds: first line-IV bisphosphonates (Pamidronate, Zoledronate) 2nd line-glucocortioids, Mithramycin,calcitonin, gallium nitrate

Hypoparathyroidism
diseases assoc with: addisons, premature ovarian failure, autoimmune thyroid disease, pernicious anemia, mucocutaneous candidiasis LAB: decr Ca++.decr PTH, incr P
188
hypocalcemia
``` PTH absent (decr Ca++,decr PTH, incr P)-hypoparathyroidism, hypomagnesenia (leads to decr Ca++, decr K) PTH ineffective (decr Ca++,incr P & PTH)-end organ resistance to PTH-short 4th and 5th metacarpals and metatarsals PTH overwhelmed-severe acute hyperphosphatemia(tumor lysis, rhabdomyolysis, ARF, hungry bone syndrome(after surgery for hyperparathyroidism) ```
