[Hypoparathyroidism in adults (author's transl)]. 1978

J P Vagneur, and B Argémi, and J L Codaccioni, and R Simonin

The authors studied the clinical characteristics of primary and post-operative hypoparathyroidism in 39 patients. Laboratory follow-up data were compared under two different treatment programs using either AT 10 or 25 Hydroxycholecalciferol (25 OHCC). Clinical analysis revealed the atypical characteristics of primary hypoparathyroidism. From a therapeutic standpoint, AT 10 and 25 OHCC were equally effective in provoking a return to normal plasma calcium levels, except in complex cases of vitamin D resistance. 25 OHCC proved much easier to manipulate than at 10 and offered a higher security with respect tothe risk of hypercalcemia. The biological activity of 25 OHCC seems to differ from that of AT 10, especially regarding phosphorus metabolism.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007011 Hypoparathyroidism A condition caused by a deficiency of PARATHYROID HORMONE (or PTH). It is characterized by HYPOCALCEMIA and hyperphosphatemia. Hypocalcemia leads to TETANY. The acquired form is due to removal or injuries to the PARATHYROID GLANDS. The congenital form is due to mutations of genes, such as TBX1; (see DIGEORGE SYNDROME); CASR encoding CALCIUM-SENSING RECEPTOR; or PTH encoding parathyroid hormone.

D010710 Phosphates Inorganic salts of phosphoric acid. Inorganic Phosphate,Phosphates, Inorganic,Inorganic Phosphates,Orthophosphate,Phosphate,Phosphate, Inorganic
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.
