...Ivana Žofková; Ivo Sotorník; Radmila L. Kancheva The function of the adenohypophyseal-gonadal axis in haemodialyzed male patients is modified: the serum testosterone level is low, and the gonadotropin levels are increased. The pathogenetic role of secondary hyperparathyroidism in this disorder has...

... mismatches, and postoperative hypotension. In the present study, we retrospectively evaluated the role of secondary hyperparathyroidism and high parathyroid hormone (PTHi) blood levels in the development of post-transplant ATN. One hundred patients submitted to cadaveric renal transplant between January 1992...

... Parathyroid glands enlarge gradually with the progression of secondary hyperparathyroidism. The significance of down-regulation of the 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D receptor (VDR) in parathyroid glands has been emphasized. Here we report a case in whom the relationship between the growth rates...

...M. Driessen; T. Wetterling; T. Wedel; R. Preuss This study was aimed at examining the relation between secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT) and depressive syndromes in chronic renal failure (CRF).

Aparicio Phosphorus (Pi) retention linked to chronic renal failure (CRF) favors secondary hyperparathyroidism (HPT). Reduction of Pi and protein intake has been shown to prevent the development of HPT...

...Ivana Žofková; Ivo Sotorník To test the effect of parathyroidectomy on thyrotropic and lactotropic function, a thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) test was performed before and between the 2nd and 3rd month after operation in 13 haemodialysed patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism...

We...

...Hung Yi; Masafumi Fukagawa; Hideyuki Yamato; Miki Kumagai; Tsuyoshi Watanabe; Kiyoshi Kurokawa In order to evaluate the effect of dietary phosphorus (P) restriction on the pathogenesis of secondary hyperparathyroidism (2°HPT) in chronic renal failure (CRF), we studied parathyroid function...
