Oncology, endocrine surgery. Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN-1) is one of a group of disorders, the multiple endocrine neoplasias, that affect the endocrine system through development of neoplastic lesions in pituitary, parathyroid gland and pancreas. [ 1] Individuals suffering from this disorder are prone to developing multiple ...
Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) is a rare hereditary endocrine cancer syndrome characterized primarily by tumors of the parathyroid glands (95% of cases), endocrine gastroenteropancreatic (GEP) tract (30–80% of cases), and anterior pituitary (15–90% of cases). [19] Other endocrine and non-endocrine neoplasms including ...
About 0.17% to 0.89% (pre- COVID-19 pandemic) [ 9] Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome ( ME/CFS) is a disabling chronic illness. People with ME/CFS experience a profound fatigue that does not go away with rest, sleep issues and problems with memory or concentration. Further common symptoms include dizziness, nausea and pain.

Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1 ( APS-1 ), is a subtype of autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome (autoimmune polyglandular syndrome). It causes the dysfunction of multiple endocrine glands due to autoimmunity. It is a genetic disorder, inherited in autosomal recessive fashion due to a defect in the AIRE gene (autoimmune regulator), which ...
H&E stain. Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B (MEN 2B) is a genetic disease that causes multiple tumors on the mouth, eyes, and endocrine glands. It is the most severe type of multiple endocrine neoplasia, [ 2] differentiated by the presence of benign oral and submucosal tumors in addition to endocrine malignancies.
Hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome. The structure of the Immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibody. Hyperimmunoglobulinemia E syndrome[ 1] ( HIES ), of which the autosomal dominant form is called Job's syndrome[ 1] or Buckley syndrome, [ 1] is a heterogeneous group of immune disorders. Job's is also very rare at about 300 cases currently in the literature.
0.3–1.9 per 1,000 [ 1] Ménière's disease ( MD) is a disease of the inner ear that is characterized by potentially severe and incapacitating episodes of vertigo, tinnitus, hearing loss, and a feeling of fullness in the ear. [ 3][ 4] Typically, only one ear is affected initially, but over time, both ears may become involved. [ 3]
MEN1. Menin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MEN1 gene. [ 5] Menin is a putative tumor suppressor associated with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN-1 syndrome) and has autosomal dominant inheritance. [ 6] Variations in the MEN1 gene can cause pituitary adenomas, hyperparathyroidism, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors ...
