Parathyroid gland
Also see thyroid and thyroid ducts.
Themes
- Not being fast enough to get the (food) morsel (right) because of lack of muscle activity due to a lack of calcium in the blood.
- Not being fast enough to get rid of the morsel (left) due to lack of calcium.
Difference between left and right see ring shaped organism.
CA phase
Functional increased, cell increase in parathyroid gland.
Biological purpose
Increased secretion of parathormone that helps maintain the proper level of calcium, a mineral essential for muscle contraction. Enhanced muscle activity.
Symptoms
Enlarged parathyroid gland, goiter with hyperparathyroidism. Elevated calcium levels.
PCL phase
Functional normalization. Decomposition of the extra cells by fungi or TB bacteria would be normal. Often, however, the thickenings remain and become encapsulated.
Symptoms
Thyroiditis with of fungi or TB bacteria.
Hanging healing or many relapses: (too) low parathormone level (see also endoderm).
