Pathophysiology of parathyroid hyperplasia in chronic kidney disease: preclinical and clinical basis for parathyroid intervention
Secondary hyperparathyroidism is characterised by excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone and parathyroid hyperplasia, resulting in both skeletal and extraskeletal consequences. Recent basic and clinical studies have brought considerable advances in our understanding of the pathophysiology of parathyroid hyperplasia and have also provided practical therapeutic approaches, especially with reg...
متن کاملCellular changes following direct vitamin D injection into the uraemia-induced hyperplastic parathyroid gland
Background. Hyperplasia of the parathyroid gland (PTG) is associated not only with excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH) but also with changes in the parathyroid cell (PTC) characteristics (i.e. hyperproliferative activity and low contents of vitamin D and calcium-sensing receptors). The control of PTG hyperplasia is most important in the management of secondary hyperparathyroidism (...
متن کاملHaemostatic mechanism in uraemia.
The haemostatic mechanism was investigated in 20 patients with renal failure, of whom nine had evidence of a bleeding tendency. A defect of platelet function was the most common finding. The effect of dialysis on the bleeding state is briefly discussed, and a scheme for the routine investigation of haemostasis in renal failure is put forward.
متن کاملParathyroid Embryology, Anatomy, and Pathophysiology of Primary Hyperparathyroidism
Unregulated overproduction of parathyroid hormone (PTH) from an abnormal parathyroid gland is the origin of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). Patients who have an elevated serum calcium concentration have a problem in one or more of their parathyroid glands. To understand this disease state adequately and provide appropriate treatment, a thorough understanding of parathyroid embryology, anato...
متن کاملSchwann cell dysfunction in uraemia.
Examination of individual sural nerve fibres revealed segmental demyelination, in 10 out of 12 subjects with uraemia. Peripheral neuropathy was present in only two cases. The complex biochemical changes occurring with dialysis unmask the underlying demyelination in subjects with a latent neuropathy. This would explain the precipitation of a neuropathy in those subjects submitted for repeated di...
