There are very few reports on the epidemiology of chronic hypoparathyroidism. A population-based study was undertaken to describe the prevalence and incidence of hypoparathyroidism in Tayside, Scotland. Data on biochemistry, hospital admissions, prescribing, and death records in Tayside, Scotland,
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the clinico-pathological findings, response to treatment and prevalence of complications in dogs with primary hypoparathyroidism.
METHODS
Retrospective study of 17 dogs presenting to the University of Melbourne Veterinary Clinical Centre and Murdoch University Veterinary
The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether arterial stiffness is affected in the patients with hypoparathyroidism through pulse wave analysis (PWA).Sixty-three patients diagnosed with hypoparathyroidism and sixty volunteers were evaluated for the OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the accuracy of the intraoperative parathyroid hormone (ioPTH) and 6-hour PTH (6hPTH) assay in predicting transient hypoparathyroidism after thyroidectomy.
METHODS
A nonrandomized prospective study was conducted on patients undergoing thyroid surgery.
METHODS
Of 138 patients
Dear Editors,Hypocalcemia is not unusual in patients hospitalized for critical illness and has also been described after general surgery in addition to head and neck surgical procedures 1 2 3. Hypocalcemic events commonly occur in the setting of massive blood transfusion, albumin deficiency, vitamin
OBJECTIVE
To determine the prevalence of hypoparathyroidism in transfusion-dependent patients with beta-thalassemia.
METHODS
A total of 28 transfusion-dependent patients with beta-thalassemia were interviewed, and their serum calcium, phosphate, magnesium, and intact parathyroid hormone levels were
Relative hypoparathyroidism (parathyroid hormone [PTH] < or = 200 pg/mL) is prevalent in hemodialysis (HD) patients, with unknown pathogenesis and prognosis. Thus, to clarify risk factors and prognosis of time-dependent relative hypoparathyroidism in HD patients, a retrospective cohort study was
Hypercalciuria is an adverse event of postsurgical hypoparathyroidism treatment that can lead to renal complications. The collection of 24-hour urine to detect hypercalciuria is often considered unreliable.
The purpose of this study was to find useful predictive biomarkers of hypercalciuria in
BACKGROUND
Some of the patients with idiopathic hypoparathyroidism (IHP) report symptoms of hypocalcemia during menstruation. There is limited data on this observation.
METHODS
Twenty six menstruating women with IHP and 26 healthy controls were questioned regarding symptoms suggestive of
A 49-year-old man had idiopathic epilepsy with recurrent convulsions and history of cleft palate, mental retardation, schizophrenia, and cataract. He had convulsions the day before and on the day of admission. Fosphenytoin was given i.v.; his convulsion stopped, but he lost consciousness 2 h later
Postoperative hypoparathyroidism is a common complication of total or completion thyroidectomy. The association between preoperative vitamin D deficiency (VDD) and the development of more severe postoperative hypocalcemia is still unclear. Objectives. To evaluate the effect of preoperative
OBJECTIVE
Patients with end-stage renal disease treated by hemodialysis are at an increased risk of hip fracture. In the general population, hip fractures are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The objective of this study was to assess the predictors and outcomes of hip fracture in
Symptomatic hypoparathyroidism [symptomatic hypocalcemia without elevated serum parathyroid hormone (PTH)] in patients with thalassemia is relatively rare. Asymptomatic mild hypocalcemia without elevated PTH, which is considered hypoparathyroidism, may be more common but under-recognized.
Sixty-six
BACKGROUND
Permanent hypoparathyroidism, although a recognized complication of total thyroidectomy, is an outcome that all endocrine surgeons try to avoid.
METHODS
To minimize the risk of postoperative hypoparathyroidism a strategy was developed of routine autotransplantation of at least one
Conventional hypoparathyroidism treatment with oral calcium and active vitamin D is aimed at correcting hypocalcemia but does not address other physiologic defects caused by PTH deficiency.To evaluate long-term safety and tolerability of recombinant human
