[Relationship between gastric acid secretion and plasma calcium, parathormone and calcitonin levels in patients with chronic renal failure on haemodialysis (author's transl)]. 1978

M Beaugrand, and P Cassan, and G Dongradi, and F Khazine, and J P Fendler

In twelve patients on chronic haemodialysis, a relationship was established between gastric acid secretion on the one hand, and certain parameters of calcium metabolism on the other hand: in a multifactorial statistical analysis, plasma calcium before dialysis (p less than 0,05), plasma parathormone levels before dialysis (p less than 0,05) and plasma calcitonin before dialysis (p less than 0,05) were variable explicatives of basal gastric acid secretion according to a direct relationship, whilst plasma calcium (p less than 0,05) was the only explicative variable of maximal gastric acid secretion after pentagastrin, with an inverse relationship. These preliminary results suggest that gastric acid secretion in the haemodialysis patient must be interpreted in the light of the state of calcium metabolism. Thus hypocalcaemia may be accompanied by decreased basal acid secretion and by contrast by an increased maximal acid secretion. These results require confirmation in a larger number of patients.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.

D010281 Parathyroid Hormone A polypeptide hormone (84 amino acid residues) secreted by the PARATHYROID GLANDS which performs the essential role of maintaining intracellular CALCIUM levels in the body. Parathyroid hormone increases intracellular calcium by promoting the release of CALCIUM from BONE, increases the intestinal absorption of calcium, increases the renal tubular reabsorption of calcium, and increases the renal excretion of phosphates.

D002116 Calcitonin A peptide hormone that lowers calcium concentration in the blood. In humans, it is released by thyroid cells and acts to decrease the formation and absorptive activity of osteoclasts. Its role in regulating plasma calcium is much greater in children and in certain diseases than in normal adults.

D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
