Refractory hypercalcemia caused by parathyroid-hormone-related peptide secretion from a metastatic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor: a case report [PDF]
Journal of Medical Case ReportsBackground The parathyroid-hormone-related peptide has been shown in earlier studies to be secreted by pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, although its secretion by gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors is very rare.

Clinical significance of parathyroid hormone in mineral and glucose metabolism disorders among patients with primary aldosteronism [PDF]
SAGE Open MedicineObjective: To investigate the differences in mineral and glucose metabolic disorders among patients with primary aldosteronism, nonfunctional adrenal tumors, and controls. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data from 578 patients,

Effect of eplerenone on parathyroid hormone levels in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial [PDF]
BMC Endocrine Disorders, 2012 Background Increasing evidence suggests the bidirectional interplay between parathyroid hormone and aldosterone as an important mechanism behind the increased risk of cardiovascular damage and bone disease observed in primary hyperparathyroidism.

Parathyroid Hormone Fluctuations During Thyroid and Parathyroid Surgery [PDF]
OTO OpenObjective Stress hormone levels such as cortisol and epinephrine increase with general anesthesia (GA) and surgery. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) has been shown to increase with GA in those undergoing parathyroidectomy (PT) with abnormal parathyroid function,

Pseudohypoparathyroidism versus signaling disorder: A case report
SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2023 Pseudohypoparathyroidism is a terminology used to describe a group of metabolic disorders characterized by parathyroid hormone resistance. Patients with pseudohypoparathyroidism have hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, and elevated serum parathyroid hormone.

Effect Modifying Role of Serum Calcium on Mortality-Predictability of PTH and Alkaline Phosphatase in Hemodialysis Patients: An Investigation Using Data from the Taiwan Renal Registry Data System from 2005 to 2012. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Predicting mortality in dialysis patients based on low intact parathyroid hormone levels is difficult, because aluminum intoxication, malnutrition, older age, race, diabetes, or peritoneal dialysis may influence these levels. We investigated the clinical
