intensification of anemia by secondary hyperparathyroidism in hemodialysis patients

Intensification of Anemia by Secondary Hyperparathyroidism in Hemodialysis Patients

The excessive amounts of parathyroid hormone in secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPTH) is suggested to interfere with normal erythropoiesis.  In SHPTH, during chronic renal failure, due to the impairment of erythropoietin synthesis, this effect is more pronounced.  In the present study the role of secondary hyperparathyroidism in the severity of anemia was evaluated in hemodialysis patients (n=3...

Management of Secondary Hyperparathyroidism in Hemodialysis Patients

Impacts of parathyroidectomy on renal anemia and nutritional status of hemodialysis patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism.

The aim of this study was to investigate the impacts of parathyroidectomy (PTX) towards the renal anemia and nutritional status of hemodialysis patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). 32 patients, enrolled into the blood purification center of our hospital for the hemodialysis treatment, were collected and divided into the PTX group and the non-PTX group, with 16 patients in each gr...

Secondary hyperparathyroidism in chronic hemodialysis patients in Khuzestan province, Iran

Introduction End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is a life-threatening disease with significant complication and the incidence and prevalence of this disease have signi ficantly increased in recent years and imposes a major social and economic burden for healthcare systems (1,2). As seen worldwide, it is well-established that diabetic nephropathy particularly from type 2 diabetes, and hypertensive n...

Parathyroidectomy reduces intradialytic hypotension in hemodialysis patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism.

BACKGROUND Secondary hyperparathyroidism is associated with vascular calcification and arterial stiffness in patients with end-stage renal disease. The aim of this study was to analyze the frequency of intradialytic hypotension (IDH) and cardiovascular function before and after parathyroidectomy (PTX) in maintenance hemodialysis patients. METHODS We compared predialytic and intradialytic bloo...
