Bone Mineral Density and Secondary Hyperparathyroidism in Pulmonary Hypertension
BACKGROUND Low bone mineral density (BMD) is common in chronic lung diseases and associated with reduced quality of life. Little is known about BMD in pulmonary hypertension (PH). METHODS Steroid-naïve patients with PH (n=34; 19 idiopathic, 15 chronic thromboembolic) had BMD measured by DXA at the time of diagnostic right heart catheterization. Exercise capacity, quality of life and various p...
متن کاملRelationship of hypovitaminosis D and secondary hyperparathyroidism with bone mineral density among UK resident Indo-Asians.
BACKGROUND There is a high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in UK resident Indo-Asians and this may be complicated by secondary hyperparathyroidism. OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between these conditions and bone mineral density (BMD) in Indo-Asian rheumatology patients. METHODS 110 Indo-Asian patients presenting to a general rheumatology clinic were selected for the study, of...
متن کاملLongitudinal changes in bone density in hyperparathyroidism.
Primary hyperparathyroidism (HPTH) is a known risk factor for cortical bone loss. The primary objective of this study was to examine the time course and location of changes in bone mass within the first year after parathyroidectomy (PAX). The secondary goal was to evaluate the efficacy of combined estrogen therapy and parathyroidectomy in postmenopausal women. Thirty-two subjects with primary H...
متن کاملSecondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism.
We reviewed the etiology and management of secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism. Secondary hyperparathyroidism is characterized by an increase in parathyroid hormone (PTH) that is appropriate and in response to a stimulus, most commonly low serum calcium. In secondary hyperparathyroidism, the serum calcium is normal and the PTH level is elevated. Tertiary hyperparathyroidism is characteri...
متن کامل[Indications of parathyroidectomy for bone disease associated with secondary hyperparathyroidism].
BACKGROUND The indications and suitable operative time of parathyroidectomy for secondary hyperparathyroidism were discussed. METHODS From October 1978 to September 1994 parathyroidectomy was performed for 71 patients who had bone and/or joint pain due to secondary hyperparathyroidism. There were 37 men and 34 women (mean age 48.4 years). The duration of dialysis treatment before parathyroide...
