The Diagnostic Accuracy of High Resolution Ultrasound Imaging for Detection of Secondary Hyperparathyroidism in Patients with Chronic Renal Failure [PDF]
Ultrasound is one of the preferred modalities for evaluation of the parathyroid glands. This study was undertaken to determine the accuracy of high resolution ultrasound for secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients with chronic renal failure. From March

Hyperparathyroidism and hyperfunctioning supernumary glands : considerations for challenging management [abstract] [PDF]
, 2010 Hyperparathyroidism can be treated surgically with high success rates. While the majority of patients have four glands, the presence of a supernumerary gland may be encountered as a normal anatomic variant in up to 13% of the population.

Improved regeneration and de novo bone formation in a diabetic zebrafish model treated with paricalcitol and cinacalcet [PDF]
, 2017 Bone changes related to diabetes have been well stablished, but few strategies have been developed to prevent this growing health problem. In our work, we propose to investigate the effects of calcitriol as well as of a vitamin D analog (paricalcitol ...

The Effect of Parathyroidectomy on Risk of Hip Fracture in Secondary Hyperparathyroidism
World Journal of Surgery, 2017 Background Secondary hyperparathyroidism increases the risk for fractures. Despite improvement in medical therapy, surgical parathyroidectomy (PTX) often becomes necessary, but its effect on risk of fractures is not clear. Our aim was to study the effect
