Secondary Hyperparathyroidism in Osteomalacia [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 1970
Twenty-one patients with histologically proved osteomalacia from various causes were investigated for biochemical and radiological evidence of osteomalacia and secondary hyperparathyroidism. Among the 15 who maintained a normal serum calcium, seven had a raised phosphate excretion index, seven had a raised serum alkaline phosphatase, and six had ...

Evaluation of Sixteen Patients with Hyperparathyroidism

open access: yesEndocrinology Research and Practice, 2022
Hyperparathyroidism is characterised by high serum calcium levels and inappropriately increased production of parathyroid hormone. In this study, we have evaluate d the clinical profile of 13 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (two patients with ...

Effects of education on low-phosphate diet and phosphate binder intake to control serum phosphate among maintenance hemodialysis patients: A randomized controlled trial. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background:For phosphate control, patient education is essential due to the limited clearance of phosphate by dialysis. However, well-designed randomized controlled trials about dietary and phosphate binder education have been scarce. Methods:We enrolled

Detection of renal tubular transporter proteins in canine urinary extracellular vesicles using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry

open access: yesVeterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Urinary extracellular vesicles (UEVs) are membranous particles that carry renal tubular transporter proteins. Here, we evaluate whether selected renal tubular transporter proteins can be detected in UEVs isolated from small volume (1–5 mL) canine urine samples of healthy dogs and canine patients with elevated circulating parathyroid hormone ...

Molecular pathophysiology of chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder: Focus on the fibroblast growth factor 23–Klotho axis and bone turnover dynamics

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder (CKD‐MBD) is a major complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD), characterized by disruptions in mineral metabolism, abnormal bone turnover and vascular calcification, which collectively increase the risk of fractures and cardiovascular disease.
