Abstract: The multi‐phase or four‐dimensional computed tomography (4D CT) has emerged as a promising technique for preoperative localization of parathyroid lesions in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT), but little is known about its accuracy in patients… read more here.

Abstract: Normocalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism (NPHPT) is characterized by elevated serum levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH) with persistently normal serum calcium concentrations after excluding secondary causes of hyperparathyroidism. Urolithiasis and/or nephrocalcinosis may occur in hypercalcemic PHPT, but… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.1013362
Abstract: Background Raised parathormone (PTH) and normal calcium concentrations can be observed both in normocalcemic primary hyperparathyroidism (nPHPT) and in secondary hyperparathyroidism, e.g. due to vitamin D deficiency. We assessed the impact of season on the… read more here.
