Markedly increased PTH was noted in the women in late pregnancy, indicating the state of secondary hyperparathyroidism. PTH values in the women in late pregnancy with PIH were higher than those in the normal early pregnancy group, but lower than those in the women in late pregnancy without PIH. The difference between PTH values in the PIH group and late pregnancy without PIH group was of statistical significance (P<0.05), while no significant difference was seen between calcitonin values of the two groups (P > 0.05). The results suggest that the pathogenesis of PIH may be related to the function of parathyroid.展开更多

Therefore, the coexistence rate of both these conditions rises in the elderly population. Abnormalities in mineral bone metabolism are major complications in chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, in elderly osteoporotic patients without a history of CKD, there are few reports on the relationship between calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), and parathyroid hormone (PTH), and renal function. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between Ca, P, and PTH, and renal function in elderly osteoporosis patients with no history of CKD. We evaluated 169 patients who had been treated for osteoporosis. The eGFR decreased with age resulting in a negative correlation (r = -0.514, p p p p p < 0.01, respectively). Even if Ca and P are in the normal range, in case of a poor effect of an osteoporotic therapeutic drug, it is necessary to consider the measurement of intact PTH in elderly osteoporosis patients with no history of CKD.展开更多
