Left maxillary sinus tumour-induced hypophosphataemic osteomalacia and combined with thyroid papillary carcinoma: a case report and literature review.

Tumour-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare disease characterised by hypophosphataemia and clinical symptoms of osteomalacia. Herein we report the case of a 29-year-old man who was admitted to hospital with progressive bone pain and was diagnosed with TIO caused by maxillary sinus tumours. In the preoperative evaluation, it was found that the patient had thyroid malignant tumours at the same time. Two operations were performed separately on the left maxillary sinus tumour and thyroid tumour after complete examination. After tumour resections, the symptoms of bone pain were relieved and the level of blood phosphorus was restored, long-term replacement therapy was needed for thyroid. When a patient is diagnosed with TIO, it is necessary to screen for the presence of other malignant tumours and explore the treatment options in order to benefit patients preferably.

The Influence of Individual and Team Mindfulness on Work Engagement.

Mindfulness metacognitive practice that can be performed in the workplace. Drawing on the theory of conservation of resources, we test a moderated mediating model of how and when employee mindfulness has a positive effect on work engagement. Via analysis of data from 311 employees from 83 teams at different times, this study investigates the relationship between employee mindfulness and work engagement as well as the moderating effect of team mindfulness and the mediating effect of recovery level. The results from this multi-wave field study show that the mindfulness of the individual employee has a positive influence on work engagement and that recovery level plays a mediating role. Team mindfulness positively moderates the relationship between individual mindfulness and work engagement. This conclusion may bridge the relationship between mindfulness and work engagement theory.

Type 2 diabetes with hypertensive patients results in changes to features of adipocytokines: Leptin, Irisin, LGR4, and Sfrp5.

The incidence of hypertension and diabetes is increasing, it is reported that adipocytokines might be involved in the pathogenesis of diabetes and hypertension. We aimed to investigate the features of adipocytokines, included of Leptin, Irisin, LGR4, and Sfrp5 in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with hypertension, simultaneously analyzed the connection of the alteration of adipocytokines with blood pressure and glucose. 424 patients with T2DM and 90 healthy subjects were included in the study. The patients with T2DM were divided into 4 groups based on the blood pressure. The levels of adipocytokines (Leptin, Irisin, LGR4, and Sfrp5) were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Significantly higher levels of Leptin and lower levels of Irisin, LGR4 and Sfrp5 were seen in patients with diabetes compared with non-diabetes (P < 0.05), the mean values of Leptin level was ascending and Irisin, LGR4, and Sfrp5 levels were declining with promoting of blood pressure in hypertension as compared to the non-hypertension with diabetic patients. Multiple stepwise linear regression analysis showed that the concentrations of Leptin, Irisin, Sfrp5, and LGR4 were found to be closely associated with the control of blood pressure and glucose. Conclusion: Four adipocytokines might play different roles and closely relate to the occurrence and development of diabetes and hypertension.
