Effect of rapid variation of renal function on plasma calcitonin and parathyroid hormone in man

Plasma levels of immunoreactive calcitonin (iCT) and parathyroid hormone (iPTH) have been measured sequentially in 6 patients following successful renal transplantation (RT) and in 3 patients during the recovery phase of acute renal failure (ARF). iCT and iPTH returned to normal values within a few days when glomerular filtration improved; both hormones rose in cases of acute graft rejection. Unlike iPTH iCT did not follow closely the variations of creatinine, iCT even rising before creatinine in one graft rejection. These observations could possibly be explained by a dissociation between the renal metabolism of iCT and the glomerular filtration.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishe

Magnesium Administration Reverses The Hypocalcemia Secondary To Hypomagnesemia Despite Low Circulating Levels Of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D and 1, 25-Dihydroxyvitamin D

The effect of parenteral administration of magnesium was studied in five patients with hypomagnesaemic hypocalcaemia. The initial metabolic state was characterized by a normal level of serum immunoreactive parathyroid hormone (iPTH), and by low or undetectable serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25 (OH)2D). A parathyroid response was elicited by the acute intravenous injection of magnesium chloride. In contrast, 1,25(OH)2D did not change up to 24 h after the injection. Intramuscular magnesium sulphate restored serum magnesium and calcium to normal, whereas iPTH was transiently increased. 25OHD remained low and unchanged. 1,25(OH)2D rose very slowly, but the correction of hypocalcemia began before any change in 1,25(OH)2D levels could be demonstrated. Thus, the early correction of hypocalcemia mainly depended on the restoration of an adequate parathyroid function independently of the secretion of 1,25(OH)2D.Journal ArticleResearch Support, Non-U.S. Gov'tFLWNAinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe
