Filter by:This study aims to investigate the changes in cardiac functions, especially myocardial performance index (MPI), in patients who underwent parathyroidectomy for secondary hyperparathyroidism. Participants who underwent parathyroidectomy for secondary hyperparathyroidism between June 2010 and September 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. The participants were divided into two groups: those who underwent total parathyroidectomy (group 1) and those who underwent subtotal parathyroidectomy (group 2). The groups were compared according to the echocardiogram findings performed in the preoperative period and the postoperative sixth month. In addition, cardiac structure, systolic and diastolic function, especially myocardial performance index, were evaluated by echocardiography and Doppler imaging.
Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common serious complication in the maintenance process of hemodialysis patients, characterized by diffuse or nodular hyperplasia of parathyroid glands. Parathyroidectomy for patients with drug-refractory SHPT is recommended in the clinical practice guidelines of the Global Organization for Improving Prognosis in Kidney Disease (KDIGO) and the Japanese Dialysis Therapy Society (JSDT) . Therefore, accurate localization and detection of parathyroid abnormalities is the key to avoid persistent recurrence of the disease. However, the sensitivity and specificity of the existing ultrasound and 99MTC-MIBI diagnosis are limited. CT examination is radiative and requires iodine contrast medium with nephrotoxicity, which may require timely dialysis and long-term monitoring for hemodialysis patients. 3T MRI has no radiation and does not need to use iodine contrast agent, which can well detect parathyroid lesions . Previous studies have reported that 3T MRI can diagnose primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), but the diagnostic efficacy of SHPT is still unclear. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the preoperative diagnostic value of non-enhanced 3T MRI compared with 4DCT in patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism after hemodialysis.
Sodium zirconium cyclosilicate (SZC) has been demonstrated for its serum potassium-lowering efficacy and safety in hyperkalemia hemodialysis patients. However, the effects of SZC during the perioperative period remained unknown. This experiment aimed to determine whether using SZC would impact the serum potassium levels in patients with maintenance hemodialysis after parathyroidectomy (PTX).
Recently, an increase in the prevalence of hyperparathyroidism and hypovitaminosis D in postmenopause women has been occurring in Mexico and the world. Chronic exposure to the parathyroid hormone (PTH) is catabolic for the bone, worsening the state of osteoporosis. However, it is unclear whether these conditions could significantly improve bone mineral density (BMD). In the present work, it was shown that the resolution of hyperparathyroidism in postmenopausal women improves osteoporosis.
The study is being conducted to evaluate the tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of SHR6508 for Chinese patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism of chronic kidney disease treated by maintenance hemodialysis
This is a pilot randomized controlled trial aimed to evaluate the effect of teriparatide on the clinical course of hypocalcemia after parathyroidectomy for secondary hyperparathyroidism in dialysis-dependent patients.
Chronic kidney disease related mineral and bone disorders (CKD-MBDs) and secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) are observed in most patients with chronic kidney disease on dialysis (CKD-5D). The original use of the calcimimetic cinacalcet in these patients was to reduce the elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels; however, subsequent clinical studies consistently confirmed its beneficial effects on mineral disturbances and bone disease. Although many mechanisms proposed, its specific mechanisms underlying the bone disease is still unclear. Recently, Wnt signaling and their inhibitors were proposed to involve in fine control of osteoclast-to-osteoblast cross-talk. In previous study, investigators explore the changes in Wnt 10b in bone microenvironment after addition of calcimimetic cinacalcet using in vitro osteoclasts. In vitro results were confirmed in 5/6 nephrectomy mice, which were grouped into control, with cinacalcet and without cinacalcet groups. From in-vitro study, investigators found cinacalcet increase mineralization; enhance osteoclast apoptosis, which probably work as osteoclast-osteoblast cross talk for bone formation. Similar results were found in-vivo animal study, and the micro-CT of cinacalcet treated CKD animals revealed a significantly decrease in cortical porosity. On the basis of our in-vitro and animal study, investigators propose that cinacalcet have definitive role on bone turnover marker and bone density changes among SHPT dialysis patients. Methods: Our study includes 50 hyperparathyroid dialysis patients using cinacalcet from 1st Dec 2017 to 31 Oct 2018. Investigators will exclude post-menopausal female subjects. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and Western blot analysis will be done for bone turnover markers (TRACP，Alk-P，S1P，BMP6，Wnt，10B，16，SOST，P1NP，PDGF BB，HGF and CTHRC1, etc.). Bone mineral density will be determined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Plasma fibroblast growth factor (FGF-23), Ca 2+ , P 3+ , calcium-phosphorus product and parathyroid hormone will also be measured. Data will be collected and analyzed the differences between baseline measures and 4 weekly and follow up for 6 months after the treatment. Control group that we enrolled 30 hyperparathyroid dialysis patients using traditional therapy active vitamin D without use cinacalcet.
Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a multisystemic syndrome that affects calcium and bone homeostasis in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Despite medical treatment, 1-2% of patients require parathyroidectomy anually. The use of an intraoperative paratohormone protocol (IOPTH) to predict cure still in debate, due to the lack of standardized protocols, the use of different assays and uneven PTH clearance. The aim of this study was to determine the diagnostic accuracy of an IOPTH in patients with SHPT for predicting successful surgery after parathyroidectomy.
In this study, investigators measure patient's voice frequency, swallowing function, and O2 desaturation of the 6 mins walking test before surgery and 4 months after surgery, to find the increase of voice frequency, and swallowing function and the decrease of O2 desaturation.
The proposed study will investigate the effects of etelcalcetide on the bone and blood-vessel health in patients with CKD-MBD. The investigators will test if etelcalcetide makes bone and blood-vessels healthier. The study hypotheses are that are that etelcalcetide keeps bones strong and lowers the risk of calcium deposits in blood vessels. In Aim 1, the investigators will test if 9-months of treatment with etelcalcetide improves bone strength in twenty ESKD patients with hyperparathyroidism (HPT) by bone biopsy. In Aim 2, the investigators will test if 9-months of treatment with etelcalcetide decreases serum propensity to calcify blood vessels. The potential significance of this study is to provide first-time data on the ability of etelcalcetide to protect bone and blood-vessel health in patients with ESKD.
