Abstract
Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) often arises from kidney disease and is characterized by elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels. The reported optimal PTH level to balance the compensatory physiologic response in SHPT with the pathologic morbidity and mortality has changed over time with our evolving understanding. Parathyroidectomy for kidney-related hyperparathyroidism requires consideration of the patient's dialysis status, potential for kidney transplantation, and medical history. Extent of parathyroidectomy and intraoperative decision-making requires consideration to maximize cure with the risk of permanent hypoparathyroidism. Parathyroidectomy for kidney-related hyperparathyroidism can provide a reduction in morbidity, mortality, and improved kidney allograft function and survival.

Abstract
The kidneys play an important role in the regulation of phosphate and calcium balance and serum concentrations, coordinated by fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), parathyroid hormone (PTH), and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25D). In patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), this regulation is impaired, leading to CKD-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD), characterized by decreased 1,25D, elevated FGF23, secondary hyperparathyroidism, hyperphosphatemia, bone abnormalities, and vascular and soft-tissue calcification. While bone abnormalities associated with CKD-MBD, known as renal osteodystrophy, have been recognized as the most typical interaction between the kidney and bone, a number of other kidney-bone interactions have been identified, for which our knowledge of the pathogenesis of CKD-MBD has played an important role. This article summarizes recent findings on CKD-MBD and explores the crosstalk between the kidney and bone from the perspective of CKD-MBD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop and validate a machine learning (ML) model based on high-frequency ultrasound (HFUS) images with the aim to identify the functional status of parathyroid glands (PTGs) in secondary hyper-parathyroidism (SHPT) patients. METHODS This retrospective study enrolled 60 SHPT patients (27 female, 33 male; mean age: 51.2 years) with 184 PTGs detected from February 2016 to June 2022. All enrollments underwent single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography and contrast-enhanced ultrasound examinations. The PTGs were randomly divided into training (n = 147) and testing datasets (n = 37). Four effective ML classifiers were used and combined models incorporating multi-modal HFUS visual signs and radiomics features was constructed based on the optimal classifier. Model performance was compared in terms of discrimination, calibration and clinical utility. The Shapley additive explanation method was used to explain and visualize the main predictors of the optimal model. RESULTS This model, using a random forest classifier algorithm, outperformed other classifiers. Based on optimal classifier features, the model constructed from ultrasound visual and ML features achieved a favorable performance in the prediction of hyper-functioning PTGs. Compared with the traditional visual model, the ultrasound-based ML model achieved significant (p = 0.03) improvement (area under the curve: 0.859 vs. 0.629) and higher sensitivity (100.0% vs. 94.1%) and accuracy (86.5% vs. 67.6%). Among the predictors attributed to model development, large size and high echogenic heterogeneity of PTGs in ultrasonographic images were more often associated with high risk of hyper-functioning PTGs. CONCLUSION The ultrasound-based ML model for identifying hyper-functioning PTGs in SHPT patients showed good performance and interpretability using high-frequency ultrasonographic images, which may facilitate clinical management.

Abstract
Primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) afflicts our aging population with an incidence approaching 50 per 100 000 patient-years at a female:male ratio of ~3:1. Decisions surrounding surgical management are currently driven by age, hypercalcemia severity, presence of osteoporosis, renal insufficiency, or hypercalciuria with or without nephrolithiasis. Cardiovascular (CV) disease (CVD) is not systematically considered. This is notable since the parathyroid hormone (PTH) 1 receptor (PTH1R) is biologically active in the vasculature, and adjusted CV mortality risk is increased almost threefold in individuals with pHPT who do not meet contemporary recommendations for surgical cure. We provide an overview of epidemiology, pharmacology, and physiology that highlights the need to: (i) identify biomarkers that establish a healthy 'set point' for CV PTH1R signaling tone; (ii) better understand the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) relationships of PTH1R ligands in CV homeostasis; and (iii) incorporate CVD risk assessment into the management of hyperparathyroidism.

Abstract
Kidney transplantation (KT) is the best option for patients with end-stage renal disease, but recipients still have legacy bone mineral disease from the pretransplant period, especially patients with severe secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT). Patients who had severe sHPT and underwent KT were analyzed retrospectively. Two groups were identified (patients with severe sHPT who had parathyroidectomy or calcimimetic before KT). Bone mineral density (BMD) was measured in the first year and last follow-up at the femoral neck, total hip, and lumbar spine using the dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Persistent hyperparathyroidism (perHPT) incidence was significantly higher in the calcimimetic group (75% vs. 40%, p=0.007). In patients with parathyroidectomy, BMDs were higher at femoral neck (0.818±0.114 vs. 0.744±0.134, p=0.04) and lumbar spine (1.005±0.170 vs. 0.897±0.151, p=0.01) at the first assessment. The BMD comparison between patients treated with parathyroidectomy and calcimimetic found a significant difference only in the femoral neck at second evaluation (0.835±0.118 vs. 0.758±0.129; p=0.03). In multivariate, linear regression revealed a positive association between the last BMD of the femoral neck with body mass index (CC: 0.297, 95% CI, 0.002-0.017) and parathyroidectomy (CC: 0.319, 95% CI, 0.021-0.156). Parathyroidectomy is associated with a significantly better femoral neck BMD and a lower incidence of perHPT in patients with severe sHPT.

Abstract
Hyperparathyroidism (HPT) with hypercalcemia, often deemed irreversible and detrimental to graft survival post-kidney transplantation (KT), prompts pre-transplant parathyroidectomy in hypercalcemic patients. In this retrospective analysis of 1212 kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) between 2006 and 2019, the incidence and effect of persistent HPT and hypercalcemia on graft and patient survival, and risk factors for persistence were analyzed until 60 months of follow up (FU). At KT, 5.7% (n = 69) had no HPT, 32.7% (n = 396) had HPT without hypercalcemia and 37.0% (n = 448) had HPT with hypercalcemia. At 2 years FU, 26.4% (n = 320) of patients had no HPT and 6% (n = 73) had HPT with hypercalcemia. Dialysis and dialysis duration were linked to HPT development, while dialysis, KT waiting time and donor type correlated with persisting hypercalcemia after KT. KTRs with normalized PTH and recovered hypercalcemia had improved death-censored graft survival (p < 0.001) and overall patient survival (p < 0.001). HPT with hypercalcemia is frequent at time of KT with normalization of PTH and calcium in a substantial proportion of patients after a KT. These findings question the routine pre-KT parathyroidectomy for suspected parathyroid autonomy. Persisting HPT, especially with hypercalcemia, adversely affects graft and patient survival, suggesting the need for more aggressive treatment of HPT, especially in cases of persisting hypercalcemia.

Abstract
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) or kidney failure, with an estimated prevalence of up to 78% in those referred for right-heart catheterization. PH is independently associated with adverse outcomes in CKD, raising the possibility that early detection and appropriate management of PH might improve outcomes in at-risk patients. Among patients with PH, the prevalence of CKD stages 3 and 4 is estimated to be as high as 36%, and CKD is also independently associated with adverse outcomes. However, the complex, heterogenous pathophysiology and clinical profile of CKD-PH requires further characterization. CKD is often associated with elevated left ventricular filling pressure and volume overload, which presumably leads to pulmonary vascular stiffening and post-capillary PH. By contrast, a distinct subgroup of patients at high risk is characterized by elevated pulmonary vascular resistance and right ventricular dysfunction in the absence of pulmonary venous hypertension, which may represent a right-sided cardiorenal syndrome defined in principle by hypervolaemia, salt avidity, low cardiac output and normal left ventricular function. Current understanding of CKD-PH is limited, despite its potentially important ramifications for clinical decision making. In particular, whether PH should be considered when determining the suitability and timing of kidney replacement therapy or kidney transplantation is unclear. More research is urgently needed to address these knowledge gaps and improve the outcomes of patients with or at risk of CKD-PH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The management of secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients undergoing dialysis is debated, with uncontrolled parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels becoming more common despite the expanded use of medical treatments like cinacalcet. This study examines the clinical benefits of parathyroidectomy vs medical treatment in reducing mortality and managing key laboratory parameters in patients undergoing dialysis. METHODS PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were searched for cohort studies or randomized controlled trials published before August 18, 2023. We included studies with comparative arms, specifically medical treatment vs surgical intervention. Patients with a history of kidney transplant were excluded. Outcomes were analyzed using hazard ratios (HRs) for mortality and weighted mean differences (WMD) for laboratory parameters. RESULTS Twenty-three studies involving 24 398 patients were analyzed. The pooled meta-analysis has shown a significant reduction in all-cause (HR, 0.47; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.35-0.61) and cardiovascular mortality (HR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.40-0.84) for parathyroidectomy vs medical treatments. Subgroup analysis showed that parathyroidectomy was associated with a greater reduction in mortality in patients with a PTH level over 585 pg/mL (HR, 0.37; 95% CI, 0.24-0.58). No mortality difference was found when all patients in the medical group received cinacalcet alongside standard medical treatment (HR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.49-2.11). Parathyroidectomy also led to a larger decrease in PTH (WMD, 1078 pg/mL; 95% CI, 587-1569), calcium (WMD, 0.86 mg/dL; 95% CI, 0.43-1.28), and phosphate (WMD, 0.74 mg/dL; 95% CI, 0.32-1.16). CONCLUSION Parathyroidectomy may offer a survival advantage compared to medical management in patients with severe secondary hyperparathyroidism.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) each play a central role in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease (CKD)-mineral and bone disorder. Levels of both hormones increase progressively in advanced CKD and can lead to damage in multiple organs. Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), characterized by parathyroid hyperplasia with increased PTH secretion, is associated with fractures and mortality. Emerging evidence suggests that these associations may be partially explained by PTH-induced browning of adipose tissue and increased energy expenditure. Observational studies suggest a survival benefit of PTHlowering therapy, and a recent study comparing parathyroidectomy and calcimimetics further suggests the importance of intensive PTH control. The mechanisms underlying the regulation of FGF23 secretion by osteocytes in response to phosphate load have been unclear, but recent experimental studies have identified glycerol-3-phosphate, a byproduct of glycolysis released by the kidney, as a key regulator of FGF23 production. Elevated FGF23 levels have been shown to be associated with mortality, and experimental data suggest off-target adverse effects of FGF23. However, the causal role of FGF23 in adverse outcomes in CKD patients remains to be established. Further studies are needed to determine whether intensive SHPT control improves clinical outcomes and whether treatment targeting FGF23 can improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) poses a common condition among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) due to the chronic stimulation of the parathyroid glands as a result of persistently low calcium levels. As a first option for medical treatment, vitamin D receptor analogs (VDRAs) and calcimimetic agents are generally used. Apart from cinacalcet, which is orally taken, in recent years, another calcimimetic agent, etelcalcetide, is being administered intravenously during dialysis. Materials and Methods: In a 5-year retrospective study between 2018 and 2023, 52 patients undergoing dialysis were studied. The aim of this study is to highlight the possible effects and/or benefits that intravenously administered calcimimetic agents have on CKD patients. A total of 34 patients (65.4%) received cinacalcet and etelcalcetide while parathormone (PTH) and calcium serum levels were monitored on a monthly basis. Results: A total of 29 out of 33 patients (87.9%) that received treatment with etelcalcetide showed a significant decrease in PTH levels, which rose up to 57% compared to the initial values. None of the included patients needed to undergo parathyroidectomy (PTx) due to either extremely high and persistent PTH levels or severe side effects of the medications. It is generally strongly advised that parathyroidectomies should be performed by an expert surgical team. In recent years, a significant decrease in parathyroidectomies has been recorded globally, a fact that is mainly linked to the constantly wider use of new calcimimetic agents. This decrease in parathyroidectomies has resulted in an important decrease in complications occurring in cervical surgeries (e.g., perioperative hemorrhage and nerve damage). Conslusions: Despite the fact that these surgical complications cannot be easily compared to the pharmaceutical side effects, the recorded decrease in parathyroidectomies is considered to be notable, especially in cases of relapse where a difficult reoperation would be considered based on previously published guidelines.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Management of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a challenging endeavor with several factors contruibuting to treatment failure. Calcimimetic therapy has revolutionized the management of SHPT, leading to changes in indications and appropriate timing of parathyroidectomy (PTX) around the world. METHODS We compared response rates to clinical vs. surgical approaches to SHPT in patients on maintenance dialysis (CKD 5D) and in kidney transplant patients (Ktx). A retrospective analysis of the one-year follow-up findings was carried out. CKD 5D patients were divided into 3 groups according to treatment strategy: parathyroidectomy, clinical management without cinacalcet (named standard - STD) and with cinacalcet (STD + CIN). Ktx patients were divided into 3 groups: PTX, CIN (cinacalcet use), and observation (OBS). RESULTS In CKD 5D we found a significant parathormone (PTH) decrease in all groups. Despite all groups had a higher PTH at baseline, we identified a more pronounced reduction in the PTX group. Regarding severe SHPT, the difference among groups was evidently wider: 31%, 14% and 80% of STD, STD + CIN, and PTX groups reached adequate PTH levels, respectively (p<0.0001). Concerning the Ktx population, although the difference was not so impressive, a higher rate of success in the PTX group was also observed. CONCLUSION PTX still seems to be the best treatment choice for SHPT, especially in patients with prolonged diseases in unresourceful scenarios.

Abstract
Background Although favorable outcomes have been reported with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), the long-term efficacy remains insufficiently investigated. Purpose To evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of US-guided percutaneous RFA in patients with SHPT undergoing dialysis and to identify possible predictors associated with treatment failure. Materials and Methods This retrospective study included consecutive patients with SHPT with at least one enlarged parathyroid gland accessible for RFA who were undergoing dialysis at seven tertiary centers from May 2013 to July 2022. The primary end point was the proportion of patients with parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels less than or equal to 585 pg/mL at the end of follow-up. Secondary end points were the proportion of patients with normal calcium and phosphorus levels, the technical success rate, procedure-related complications, and improvement in self-rated hyperparathyroidism-related symptoms (0-3 ranking scale). The Wilcoxon signed rank test and generalized estimating equation model were used to evaluate treatment outcomes. Univariable and multivariable regression analyses identified variables associated with treatment failure (recurrent or persistent hyperparathyroidism). Results This study included 165 patients (median age, 51 years [IQR, 44-60 years]; 92 female) and 582 glands. RFA effectively reduced PTH, calcium, and phosphorus levels, with targeted ranges achieved in 78.2% (129 of 165), 72.7% (120 of 165), and 60.0% (99 of 165) of patients, respectively, at the end of follow-up (mean, 51 months). For the RFA sessions, the technical success rate was 100% (214 of 214). Median symptom scores (ostealgia, arthralgia, pruritus) decreased (all P < .001). Regarding complications, only hypocalcemia (45.8%, 98 of 214) was common. Treatment failure occurred in 36 patients (recurrent [n = 5] or persistent [n = 31] hyperparathyroidism). The only potential independent predictor of treatment failure was having less than four treated glands (odds ratio, 17.18; 95% CI: 4.34, 67.95; P < .001). Conclusion US-guided percutaneous RFA was effective and safe in the long term as a nonsurgical alternative for patients with SHPT undergoing dialysis; the only potential independent predictor of treatment failure was a lower number (<4) of treated glands. © RSNA, 2024 Supplemental material is available for this article.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with renal hyperparathyroidism undergoing parathyroidectomy may experience relapse. Reoperation for persistent or recurrent disease, particularly in the neck region, is challenging and has a high complication rate because of difficult exploration. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of neck reoperation in renal hyperparathyroidism. METHODS Patients with recurrent or persistent renal hyperparathyroidism who underwent neck reoperation between January 2015 and August 2022 were investigated, focusing on operative findings, perioperative biochemical changes, and significance of intraoperative parathyroid hormone (PTH) measurements. RESULTS During reoperation, 35 parathyroid glands were identified and removed from the 26 enrolled patients, with one, two, and three glands retrieved from 19 (73.2%), five (19.2%), and two (7.6%) patients, respectively. Most removed glands (68.6%) were located in the lower neck, followed by the mediastinum, carotid sheath, and upper neck. Successful resection, defined as a postoperative PTH level of <300 pg/mL, was achieved in 21 patients (80.8%). The remaining four (15.4%) and one (3.9%) patients were classified as having persistent and recurrent disease, respectively. The extent of PTH reduction was correlated with specimen weight, specimen volume, and preoperative alkaline phosphatase (ALP) level. The mean intraoperative PTH ratio (10 min after excision/pre-excision) was 0.23, and all patients with persistent or recurrent disease had a PTH ratio >0.3. Severe hypocalcemia (<7.5 mg/dL) occurred in 19 (73.0%) patients after reoperation. CONCLUSIONS Neck reoperation is an effective therapeutic option in patients with recurrent or persistent renal hyperparathyroidism. A decrease in PTH level by >70% during reoperation (PTH ratio <0.3) predicts successful resection.

Cardiovascular complications in chronic kidney disease: a review from the European Renal and Cardiovascular Medicine Working Group of the European Renal Association. Cardiovasc Res 2023; 119:2017-2032. [PMID: 37249051 PMCID: PMC10478756 DOI: 10.1093/cvr/cvad083] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 23.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2022] [Revised: 12/29/2022] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is classified into five stages with kidney failure being the most severe stage (stage G5). CKD conveys a high risk for coronary artery disease, heart failure, arrhythmias, and sudden cardiac death. Cardiovascular complications are the most common causes of death in patients with kidney failure (stage G5) who are maintained on regular dialysis treatment. Because of the high death rate attributable to cardiovascular (CV) disease, most patients with progressive CKD die before reaching kidney failure. Classical risk factors implicated in CV disease are involved in the early stages of CKD. In intermediate and late stages, non-traditional risk factors, including iso-osmotic and non-osmotic sodium retention, volume expansion, anaemia, inflammation, malnutrition, sympathetic overactivity, mineral bone disorders, accumulation of a class of endogenous compounds called 'uremic toxins', and a variety of hormonal disorders are the main factors that accelerate the progression of CV disease in these patients. Arterial disease in CKD patients is characterized by an almost unique propensity to calcification and vascular stiffness. Left ventricular hypertrophy, a major risk factor for heart failure, occurs early in CKD and reaches a prevalence of 70-80% in patients with kidney failure. Recent clinical trials have shown the potential benefits of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors, especially as an oral agent in CKD patients. Likewise, the value of proactively administered intravenous iron for safely treating anaemia in dialysis patients has been shown. Sodium/glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors are now fully emerged as a class of drugs that substantially reduces the risk for CV complications in patients who are already being treated with adequate doses of inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system. Concerted efforts are being made by major scientific societies to advance basic and clinical research on CV disease in patients with CKD, a research area that remains insufficiently explored.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Multiple factors account for the increased incidence of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with CKD. Traditional risk factors for atherosclerosis and arteriosclerosis, including age, hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, and smoking, are also risk factors for CKD. Non-traditional risk factors specific for CKD are also involved in CVD pathogenesis in patients with CKD. Recently, CKD-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) has emerged as a key player in CVD pathogenesis in the context of CKD. CKD-MBD manifests as hypocalcemia and hyperphosphatemia in the later stages of CKD; however, it initially develops much earlier in disease course. The initial step in CKD-MBD involves decreased phosphate excretion in the urine, followed by increased circulating concentrations of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and parathyroid hormone (PTH), which increase urinary phosphate excretion. Simultaneously, the serum calcitriol concentration decreases as a result of FGF23 elevation. Importantly, FGF23 and PTH cause left ventricular hypertrophy, arrhythmia, and cardiovascular calcification. More recently, calciprotein particles, which are nanoparticles composed of calcium, phosphate, and fetuin-A, among other components, have been reported to cause inflammation, cardiovascular calcification, and other clinically relevant outcomes. CKD-MBD has become one of the critical therapeutic targets for the prevention of cardiovascular events and is another link between cardiology and nephrology. In this review, we describe the role of CKD-MBD in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disorders and present the current treatment strategies for CKD-MBD.

Abstract
Primary hyperparathyroidism (1° HPT) is a relatively common endocrine disorder usually caused by autonomous secretion of parathormone by one or several parathyroid adenomas. 1° HPT causing hypercalcemia, kidney stones and/or osteoporosis should be treated whenever possible by parathyroidectomy. Accurate preoperative location of parathyroid adenomas is crucial for surgery planning, mostly when performing minimally invasive surgery. Cervical ultrasonography (US) is usually performed to localize parathyroid adenomas as a first intention, followed by 99mTc- sestamibi scintigraphy with SPECT/CT whenever possible. 4D-CT is a possible alternative to 99mTc- sestamibi scintigraphy. Recently, 18F-fluorocholine positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FCH PET/CT) has made its way in the clinics as it is the most sensitive method for parathyroid adenoma detection. It can eventually be combined to 4D-CT to increase its diagnostic performance, although this results in higher dose exposure to the patient. Other forms of hyperparathyroidism consist in secondary (2° HPT) and tertiary hyperparathyroidism (3° HPT). As parathyroidectomy is not usually part of the management of patients with 2° HPT, parathyroid imaging is not routinely performed in these patients. In patients with 3° HPT, total or subtotal parathyroidectomy is often performed. Localization of hyperfunctional glands is an important aid to surgery planning. As 18F-FCH PET/CT is the most sensitive modality in multigland disease, it is the preferred imaging technic in 3° HPT patients, although its cost and availability may limit its widespread use in this setting.

Abstract
Introduction Following total parathyroidectomy (PTx), transcervical thymectomy, and forearm autograft for secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), recurrent SHPT can occur in the autografted forearm. However, few studies have investigated the factors contributing to re-PTx due to autograft-dependent recurrent SHPT before the completion of the initial PTx. Methods A total of 770 patients who had autografted parathyroid fragments derived from only one of the resected parathyroid glands (PTGs) and who had undergone successful initial total PTx and transcervical thymectomy-defined by serum intact parathyroid hormone level < 60 pg/mL on postoperative day 1-between January 2001 and December 2022 were included in this retrospective cohort study. Factors contributing to re-PTx due to graft-dependent recurrent SHPT before the completion of the initial PTx were investigated using multivariate Cox regression analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to obtain the optimal maximum diameter of PTG for autograft. Results Univariate analysis showed that dialysis vintage and maximum diameter and weight of the PTG for autograft were significant factors contributing to graft-dependent recurrent SHPT. However, multivariate analysis revealed that dialysis vintage (P=0.010; hazard ratio [HR], 0.995; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.992-0.999) and the maximum diameter of the PTG for autograft (P=0.046; HR, 1.107; 95% CI, 1.002-1.224) significantly contributed to graft-dependent recurrent SHPT. ROC curve analysis showed that < 14 mm was the optimal maximum diameter of PTG for autograft (area under the curve, 0.628; 95% CI, 0.551-0.705). Conclusions The dialysis vintage and maximum diameter of PTG for autograft may contribute to re-PTx due to autograft-dependent recurrent SHPT, which can be prevented by using PTGs with a maximum diameter of < 14 mm for autograft.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a highly prevalent disease that has become a public health problem. Progression of CKD is associated with serious complications, including the systemic CKD-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD). Laboratory, bone and vascular abnormalities define this condition, and all have been independently related to cardiovascular disease and high mortality rates. The "old" cross-talk between kidney and bone (classically known as "renal osteodystrophies") has been recently expanded to the cardiovascular system, emphasizing the importance of the bone component of CKD-MBD. Moreover, a recently recognized higher susceptibility of patients with CKD to falls and bone fractures led to important paradigm changes in the new CKD-MBD guidelines. Evaluation of bone mineral density and the diagnosis of "osteoporosis" emerges in nephrology as a new possibility "if results will impact clinical decisions". Obviously, it is still reasonable to perform a bone biopsy if knowledge of the type of renal osteodystrophy will be clinically useful (low versus high turnover-bone disease). However, it is now considered that the inability to perform a bone biopsy may not justify withholding antiresorptive therapies to patients with high risk of fracture. This view adds to the effects of parathyroid hormone in CKD patients and the classical treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism. The availability of new antiosteoporotic treatments bring the opportunity to come back to the basics, and the knowledge of new pathophysiological pathways [OPG/RANKL (LGR4); Wnt-ß-catenin pathway], also affected in CKD, offers great opportunities to further unravel the complex physiopathology of CKD-MBD and to improve outcomes.

Abstract
Background No consensus has been reached on the best surgical approach for secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). We evaluated the short-term and long-term efficacy and safety of total parathyroidectomy with autotransplantation (TPTX + AT) and subtotal parathyroidectomy (SPTX). Methods We retrospectively analyzed the data of 140 patients undergoing TPTX + AT and 64 undergoing SPTX between 2010 and 2021 in Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, and carried out follow-up. We compared the differences in symptoms, serological examinations, complications and mortality between the two methods, and explored the independent risk factors of secondary hyperparathyroidism recurrence. Results In short time after surgery, serum intact parathyroid hormone and calcium level was lower in TPTX + AT group than that in SPTX group (both P < 0.05). Severe hypocalcemia was more common in TPTX group (P = 0.003). The recurrent rate was 17.1% for TPTX + AT and 34.4% for SPTX (P = 0.006). There was no statistical difference in all-cause mortality, cardiovascular events, cardiovascular mortality between the two methods. Higher preoperative serum phosphorus level (HR: 1.929 95% CI 1.045-3.563, P = 0.011) and the SPTX surgical method (HR: 2.309, 95% CI 1.276-4.176, P = 0.006) were found to be independent risk factors for SHPT recurrence. Conclusions Compared with SPTX, TPTX + AT is more effective in reducing the recurrent risk of SHPT without increasing the risk of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular events.

Abstract
Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a major problem for patients with chronic kidney disease and can cause many complications, including osteodystrophy, fractures, and cardiovascular diseases. Treatment for SHPT has changed radically with the advent of calcimimetics; however, parathyroidectomy (PTx) remains one of the most important treatments. For successful PTx, removing all parathyroid glands (PTGs) without complications is essential to prevent persistent or recurrent SHPT. Preoperative imaging studies for the localization of PTGs, such as ultrasonography, computed tomography, and 99mTc-Sestamibi scintigraphy, and intraoperative evaluation methods to confirm the removal of all PTGs, including, intraoperative intact parathyroid hormone monitoring and frozen section diagnosis, are useful. Functional and anatomical preservation of the recurrent laryngeal nerves can be confirmed via intraoperative nerve monitoring. Total or subtotal PTx with or without transcervical thymectomy and autotransplantation can also be performed. Appropriate operative methods for PTx should be selected according to the patients' need for kidney transplantation. In the case of persistent or recurrent SHPT after the initial PTx, localization of the causative PTGs with autotransplantation is challenging as causative PTGs can exist in the neck, mediastinum, or autotransplanted areas. Additionally, the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of calcimimetics and PTx are increasingly being discussed. In this review, medical and surgical treatments for SHPT are described.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study mainly observes changes in perioperative mineral bone metabolism-related indicators and inflammatory factors in patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), and analyzed the correlation between mineral bone metabolism-related indicators and inflammatory factors. METHODS Clinical data were collected. The study detects mineral bone metabolism-related indicators and inflammatory factor of perioperative patients with SHPT before and 4 days after operation. The production of high-sensitivity c-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in human hepatocytes cells (LO2 cells) stimulated by different concentrations of parathyroid hormone-associated protein was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and western blot. RESULTS The levels of mineral bone metabolism-related indicators and hs-CRP in SHPT group were significantly higher than those of control group. After operation, serum calcium, serum phosphorus, iPTH, FGF-23 decreased, and the level of osteoblast active biomarkers increased, while the level of osteoclast active biomarkers decreased. The levels of hs-CRP decreased significantly after operation. With the increase of PTHrP concentration, hs-CRP level in supernatant of LO2 cells decreased first and then increased. RT-PCR and western blot shows the same trend. CONCLUSION Parathyroidectomy can significantly improve bone resorption and inflammation in SHPT patients. We speculate that there may be an optimal range of PTH concentrations to minimize inflammation in the body.

Komaba H. Roles of PTH and FGF23 in kidney failure: a focus on nonclassical effects. Clin Exp Nephrol 2023; 27:395-401.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) each play a central role in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD). Both hormones increase as kidney function declines, presumably as a response to maintain normal phosphate balance, but when patients reach kidney failure, PTH and FGF23 fail to exert their phosphaturic effects, leading to hyperphosphatemia and further elevations in PTH and FGF23. In patients with kidney failure, the major target organ for PTH is the bone, but elevated PTH is also associated with mortality presumably through skeletal and nonskeletal mechanisms. Indeed, accumulated evidence suggests improved survival with PTH-lowering therapies, and a more recent study comparing parathyroidectomy and calcimimetic treatment further suggests a notion of "the lower, the better" for PTH control. Emerging data suggest that the link between SHPT and mortality could in part be explained by the action of PTH to induce adipose tissue browning and wasting. In the absence of a functioning kidney, the classical target organ for FGF23 is the parathyroid gland, but FGF23 loses its hormonal effect to suppress PTH secretion owing to the depressed expression of parathyroid Klotho. In this setting, experimental data suggest that FGF23 exerts adverse nontarget effects, but it remains to be confirmed whether FGF23 directly contributes to multiple organ injury in patients with kidney failure and whether targeting FGF23 can improve patient outcomes. Further efforts should be made to determine whether intensive control of SHPT improves clinical outcomes and whether nephrologists should aim at controlling FGF23 levels just as with PTH levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common condition in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who are on dialysis. Parathyroidectomy is a treatment for patients when medical therapy has failed. Recurrence may occur and is indicated for further surgery in the era of improved quality of care for ESRD patients. METHODS We identified, 1060 patients undergoing parathyroidectomy from January, 2011 to June, 2020. After excluding patients without regular check-up at our institute, primary hyperparathyroidism, or malignancy, 504 patients were enrolled. Sixty-two patients (12.3%, 62/504) were then excluded due to persistent SHPT even after the first parathyroidectomy. We aimed to identify risk factors for recurrent SHPT after the first surgery. RESULTS During the study period, 20% of patients who underwent parathyroidectomy at our institute (in, 2019) was due to recurrence after a previous parathyroidectomy. There were 442 patients eligible for analysis of recurrence after excluding patients with the persistent disease (n = 62). While 44 patients (9.95%) had recurrence, 398 patients did not. Significant risk factors for recurrent SHPT within 5 years after the first parathyroidectomy, including dialysis start time to first operation time < 3 years (p = 0.046), postoperative PTH >106.5 pg/mL (p < 0.001), and postoperative phosphorus> 5.9 mg/dL (p = 0.016), were identified by multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS The starting time of dialysis to first operation time < 3 years in the patients with dialysis, postoperative PTH> 106.5 pg/mL, and postoperative phosphorus> 5.9 mg/dL tended to have a higher risk for recurrent SHPT within 5 years after primary treatment.

Abstract
Background Parathyroidectomy (PTX) is a treatment for hyperparathyroidism (HPT) and has uncertain risks and benefits. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of PTX versus nonoperative treatment among nondiabetic hemodialysis patients. Methods A retrospective matched cohort study was performed. Each PTX patient was matched with one patient who had severe HPT but rejected PTX. The patients were matched by sex, birth date, date of first dialysis, nondiabetic status, and left ventricular ejection fraction. The serum markers, survival, main adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular event (MACCE) rates, and hospitalization were compared between the PTX patients and matched non-PTX patients. Results There were 1143 patients at our center in the Chinese National Renal Data System (CNRDS) between 2010 and 2020. Of these, 75 PTX patients were matched with 75 non-PTX patients. Rapid decreases in the mean intact parathyroid hormone, calcium and phosphorus concentrations, and a gradual increase in hemoglobin concentration were observed in the PTX group. The mortality was 2.9 per 100 patient-years in the PTX group and 10.9 per 100 patient-years in the non-PTX group (p < 0.001). Compared with non-PTX patients, PTX patients had an adjusted HR for death of 0.236 (95% CI 0.108–0.518). The cumulative MACCE rates were 6.7 per 100 patient-years in the PTX group and 15.2 per 100 patient-years in the non-PTX group (p < 0.001). The adjusted HR of the occurrence of first MACCE for PTX patients compared with non-PTX patients was 0.524 (95% CI 0.279-0.982). The cumulative hospitalization rates were 50.3 per 100 patient-years in the PTX group and 66.5 per 100 patient-years in the matched non-PTX group (p < 0.001). Conclusions Compared with non-PTX patients, PTX was associated with an improvement in the biochemical measures and patient-level outcomes in nondiabetic hemodialysis patients with severe HPT.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose
To investigate the therapeutic efficacy, feasibility, and safety of total parathyroidectomy (tPTX) in the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT).
Methods
The clinical data of 34 SHPT patients admitted to the Department of Nephrology, Yuxi People’s Hospital, from January 2018 to January 2021 who had received tPTX, were retrospectively analyzed. The indications for tPTX were severe SHPT that did not respond to medical treatment and was ineligible for kidney transplantation. tPTX without autotransplantation was adopted to compare the level of symptom relief and changes in serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), blood calcium, and blood phosphorus pre- and postoperatively.
Results
In 34 patients, 142 parathyroid glands were removed, including 21 ectopic parathyroid glands (14.78%). Six patients (17.64%, 6/34) had supernumerary parathyroid glands. At 6 h postoperatively, arthralgia and bone pain were significantly reduced to almost zero in 94.12% (32/34) of patients. At 24 h postoperatively, relief of bone pain and improvement of limb movement were observed in 100% (34/34) of patients, and pruritus almost disappeared in 86.36% (19/22) of patients. There were significant differences in iPTH (χ2 = 134.93, P < 0.05), calcium (χ2 = 23.02, P < 0.05), and phosphorus (χ2 = 102.11, P < 0.05) levels preoperatively and 40 min, 24 h, 1 week, half a year, and last available (> 1 year) postoperatively.
The patients were followed up for 15–47 months (median 33 months). Hypoparathyroidism was observed in three patients, who underwent neck dissection or partial thymotomy concurrently for different reasons. No intractable hypocalcemia or adynamic bone disease occurred during the follow-up period.
Conclusion
In SHPT patients who were ineligible for renal transplantation, tPTX was effective, safe, and reliable, with a low recurrence rate. However, when tPTX was performed alone without autologous transplantation, bilateral neck exploration was sufficient, and central neck dissection and thymic resection were inadvisable.

Abstract
Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is common in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients, and it can suppress erythropoiesis. We aimed to investigate the relationship between the consumption of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) and parathyroidectomy (PTX) in ESRD patients with SHPT and to determine the predictors for anemia improvement. The current standard of chronic kidney disease anemia therapy relies on the prescription of iron supplementation, and ESA. We retrospectively analyzed 81 ESRD patients with PTX at Ditmanson Medical Foundation Chiayi Christian Hospital from July 2004 to Dec 2018. The requirement of ESA therapy markedly declined from a dose of 41.6 (interquartile range [IQR], 0−91.2) to 10.3 (IQR, 0−59.5, p = 0.001) unit/kg/week. In addition, 63.7% of patients required iron replacement therapy preoperatively and the proportion reduced to 52.5% after PTX (p < 0.001). The hemoglobin (Hb) level showed an insignificant change from a median value of 10.7 g/dL (9.5−11.6 g/dL) before PTX to 10.5 g/dL (9.6−11.2 g/dL) at 6 months after PTX. A preoperative Hb level ≤ 10 mg/dL (odds ratio [OR], 20.1; 95% confidence interval [CI], 4.71−125, p < 0.001) and transferrin saturation (TSAT) < 25% (OR, 12.8; 95% CI, 2.51−129, p < 0.001) were predictors for anemia improvement. Our study demonstrated that PTX markedly decreased the requirement of ESA. Patients with a low preoperative Hb level or low TSAT showed an increase in the Hb level after PTX. PTX may be considered not only for SHPT with refractory anemia but also for high ESA-dependent patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop evidence-based recommendations for safe, effective, and appropriate treatment of secondary (SHPT) and tertiary (THPT) renal hyperparathyroidism. BACKGROUND Hyperparathyroidism is common among patients with chronic kidney disease, end-stage kidney disease, and kidney transplant. The surgical management of SHPT and THPT is nuanced and requires a multidisciplinary approach. There are currently no clinical practice guidelines that address the surgical treatment of SHPT and THPT. METHODS Medical literature was reviewed from January 1, 1985 to present January 1, 2021 by a panel of 10 experts in SHPT and THPT. Recommendations using the best available evidence was constructed. The American College of Physicians grading system was used to determine levels of evidence. Recommendations were discussed to consensus. The American Association of Endocrine Surgeons membership reviewed and commented on preliminary drafts of the content. RESULTS These clinical guidelines present the epidemiology and pathophysiology of SHPT and THPT and provide recommendations for work-up and management of SHPT and THPT for all involved clinicians. It outlines the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative management of SHPT and THPT, as well as related definitions, operative techniques, morbidity, and outcomes. Specific topics include Pathogenesis and Epidemiology, Initial Evaluation, Imaging, Preoperative and Perioperative Care, Surgical Planning and Parathyroidectomy, Adjuncts and Approaches, Outcomes, and Reoperation. CONCLUSIONS Evidence-based guidelines were created to assist clinicians in the optimal management of secondary and tertiary renal hyperparathyroidism.

Abstract
CONTEXT Parathyroidectomy (PTx) and cinacalcet are both effective treatments for secondary hyperparathyroidism in hemodialysis patients, but limited data exist comparing the long-term outcomes of these interventions. OBJECTIVE We aimed to compare the risk of mortality among hemodialysis patients who underwent PTx and those who started treatment with cinacalcet. METHODS In this prospective cohort study, comprising patients from the Japanese Society for Dialysis Therapy Renal Data Registry, patients who had intact parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels ≥ 300 pg/mL in late 2007 and underwent PTx or started treatment with cinacalcet in 2008 to 2009 were matched by propensity score at 1:3. PTx and cinacalcet were compared for all-cause mortality within 6 years. RESULTS Among eligible patients, 894 patients who underwent PTx were matched with 2682 patients who started treatment with cinacalcet. The median baseline intact PTH levels were 588 pg/mL and 566 pg/mL in the PTx and cinacalcet groups, respectively. PTx resulted in greater reductions in intact PTH, calcium, and phosphorus levels compared with cinacalcet. During the 6-year follow-up period, 201 patients (22.5%) in the PTx group and 736 patients (27.4%) in the cinacalcet group died. PTx was associated with a lower risk of mortality compared with cinacalcet (hazard ratio, 0.78 [95% CI, 0.67-0.91]; P = 0.002). This association was more pronounced in patients with intact PTH levels ≥ 500 pg/mL and in patients with serum calcium levels ≥ 10.0 mg/dL (both P for interaction < 0.001). CONCLUSION PTx compared with cinacalcet is associated with a lower risk of mortality, particularly among patients with severe secondary hyperparathyroidism.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been recognized as an increasingly serious public health problem globally over the decades. Accumulating evidence has shown that the incidence rate of cancer was relatively higher in CKD patients than that in general population, which, mechanistically, may be related to chronic inflammation, accumulation of carcinogenic compounds, oxidative stress, impairment of DNA repair, excessive parathyroid hormone and changes in intestinal microbiota, etc. And in patients with cancer, regardless of tumor types or anticancer treatment, it has been indicated that the morbidity and incidence rate of concomitant CKD was also increased, suggesting a complex inter-relationship between CKD and cancer and arousing increasing attention from both nephrologists and oncologists. This narrative review focused on the correlation between CKD and cancer, and underlying molecular mechanisms, which might provide an overview of novel interdisciplinary research interests and the potential challenges related to the screening and treatment of CKD and cancer. A better understanding of this field might be of help for both nephrologists and oncologists in the clinical practice.

PTH Spikes During Surgical Treatment for Secondary and Tertiary Hyperparathyroidism: A Prospective Observational Study. World J Surg 2022; 46:1693-1701.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the present study was to determine whether PTH spikes in renal hyperparathyroidism can interfere with the interpretation of intraoperative PTH monitoring and to determine its frequency and characteristics. METHODS This was a prospective observational study of consecutive patients who underwent surgical treatment in a single tertiary institution. Patients were divided into two groups: spike and no spike. Patients with secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism were analyzed separately. Intraoperative PTH monitoring by venous serial samples: two samples were taken before the excision of the parathyroid gland, and two others were taken after resection. RESULTS PTH spikes occurred in 23.5% (53 of 226), and their occurrence was similar between secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism patients (p = 0.074). The relative PTH spike intensity was higher in transplanted patients than in dialysis patients (55 vs. 20%, p = 0.029). A characteristic of the secondary hyperparathyroidism patients was the highest frequency of surgical failure (23 vs. 7.5%, p = 0.016) and the higher occurrence of supernumerary glands in the spike group (23 vs. 10.3%, p = 0.035). Supernumerary parathyroid was associated with surgical failure [19.1 (6.5-55.7) odds ratio [confidence interval], p < 0.001). In the studies evaluating the diagnostic test validity for patients on dialysis and experiencing spikes, the most significant impacts were in the sensitivity, accuracy, and negative predictive value of the method. CONCLUSIONS PTH spikes occurred in up to 23.5% of renal hyperparathyroidism surgical treatments and can negatively influence the intraoperative parathyroid hormone monitoring. Regarding the phenomenon of PTH spikes, it is prudent to think about the possibility of a hyperplastic supernumerary gland.

Abstract
Calcimimetics is a new drug for lowering serum parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcium and phosphate in patients with hyperparathyroidism (HPT) on long-term dialysis. It became available on market in 2006. The impact of calcimimetics on the treatment by parathyroidectomy (PTx) was reviewed from the surgeons' point of view. Cure of renal HPT by calcimimetics is not feasible, but calcimimetics can improve preoperative cardiac ventricle ejection fractions by lowering serum PTH. Heart failure is not necessarily a contraindication for PTx. PTx should be done before irreversible organ damage occurs. Limb gangrenes is an ominous sign and should be prevented by frequent checkup for peripheral arterial circulation. The impact of renal osteodystrophy on the quality of life and as indirect cause of mortality deserves more attention in patients with renal HPT. Delayed referral to PTx leads to more complicated patients. A consensus between nephrologists and surgeons about propitious timing for PTx is necessary. Future prospect on the surgical treatment of renal HPT is proposed. Supplemental figure; http://links.lww.com/ASAIO/A782.

Abstract
Objectives To analyze conventional ultrasound (CUS) and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) features in patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) and to evaluate the clinical-ultrasonographic feature based model for predicting the severity of SHPT. Methods From February 2016 to March 2021, a total of 59 patients (age 51.3 ± 11.7 years, seCr 797.8 ± 431.7 μmol/L, iPTH 1535.1 ± 1063.9 ng/L) with SHPT (including 181 parathyroid glands (PTGs)) without the history of intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH)-reducing drugs using were enrolled. The patients were divided into the mild SHPT group (mSHPT, iPTH <800 ng/L) and the severe SHPT group (sSHPT, iPTH ≥ 800 ng/L) according to the serum iPTH level. The clinical test data of patients were collected and CUS and CEUS examinations were performed for every patient. Multivariable logistic regression model according to clinical-ultrasonographic features was adopted to establish a nomogram. We performed K-fold cross-validation on this nomogram model and nomogram performance was determined by its discrimination, calibration, and clinical usefulness. Results There were 19 patients in the mSHPT group and 40 patients in the sSHPT group. Multivariable logistic regression indicated serum calcium, serum phosphorus and total volume of PTGs were independent predictors related with serum iPTH level. Even though CEUS score of wash-in and wash-out were showed related to severity of SHPT in univariate logistic regression analysis, they were not predictors of SHPT severity (p = 0.539, 0.474 respectively). The nomogram developed by clinical and ultrasonographic features showed good calibration and discrimination. The accuracy and the area under the curve (AUC), positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and accuracy of this model were 0.888, 92.5%, 63.2% and 83.1%, respectively. When applied to internal validation, the score revealed good discrimination with stratified fivefold cross-validation in the cohort (mean AUC = 0.833). Conclusions The clinical-ultrasonographic features model has good performance for predicting the severity of SHPT.

Abstract
Background Several studies have reported on the use of intraoperative parathyroid hormone (ioPTH) measurements during parathyroidectomy (PTX) for renal hyperparathyroidism (rHPT), but there is no consensus on whether it is helpful and, if so, what protocol should be used. Therefore, the literature was systematically reviewed to assess a correlation between ioPTH and early postoperative parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels in patients undergoing PTX for rHPT, separately for those on dialysis and those with a functioning renal transplant. Methods A systematic literature search was performed in electronic databases. Quality assessment was performed using the Quality In Prognosis Studies tool. Mean ioPTH values were calculated at different time points and correlated to the postoperative PTH levels within 1 month. Fixed-effect and random-effects models were performed to assess the mean ioPTH levels at 10 or 20 min after resection (T10 and T20). Stratified analyses were performed for patients on dialysis and those with a functioning renal transplant. Results Of the 3087 records screened, 14 studies were included, including some 1177 patients; 1091 were on dialysis and 86 had a functioning kidney transplant. Risk of bias was moderate for most studies. For patients on dialysis, T10 and T20 mean ioPTH levels were 32.1 (95 per cent c.i. 24.3 to 39.9) pmol/l and 15.4 (95 per cent c.i. 7.8 to 22.9) pmol/l) in the random effects meta-analysis. Between individual studies, ioPTH ranged from 4.0–65.1 pmol/l at T10 and 8.6–25.7 pmol/l at T20. T10 and T20 ioPTH were 9.6 and 4.1 times the postoperative PTH—after T20 ioPTH stabilized in those on dialysis. In patients with a functioning renal transplant, ioPTH levels seemed to plateau after 10 min and measured 2.6 times the postoperative PTH. Conclusion There is a strong correlation between ioPTH and early postoperative PTH levels, indicating that ioPTH is potentially a useful instrument during PTX in patients with rHPT. For patients on dialysis, at T20 ioPTH levels have stabilized and are approximately four times the postoperative PTH. Therefore, it is recommended to use ioPTH 20 min after resection in patients on dialysis, which might be longer than necessary for those with a kidney transplant.

Abstract
Parathyroidectomy has been the mainstay of treatment of severe hyperparathyroidism in patients with kidney failure until the introduction of calcimimetic. Several large observational studies demonstrated the improvement in patient outcomes after parathyroidectomy. The benefit of parathyroidectomy on vascular calcification remains largely unexplored. AIM To examine the association between parathyroidectomy and the progression of vascular calcification as well as overall survival in maintenance haemodialysis patients. METHOD This is a matched case-control study undertaken between 2012 and 2020. Patients who underwent parathyroidectomy were identified and matched 1:1 to non-parathyroidectomized (non-PTX) haemodialysis patients using propensity score matching method resulting in 120 patients in each arm. Aortic arch calcification (AoAC) score was determined annually in the posteroanterior chest x-ray. The average follow-up period was 38 months. RESULTS Baseline demographic, laboratory data and AoAC score were comparable among the two groups of patients. The prevalence of AoAC was 59% in the PTX group and 54% in the non-PTX group (p = .43). Progression of AoAC occurred in 33% in the PTX group and 47% in the non-PTX group (p = .04). Multivariate generalized linear model revealed parathyroidectomy as an independent protective factor [β (95% CI) -1.04 (-1.68, -0.41)] and increased serum calcium as a potentiating factor [β (95% CI) 0.62 (0.25, 0.1)] for progression of AoAC. Linear mixed models revealed an increase in AoAC score in both groups but between group comparisons indicated substantially slower progression in the PTX group. Rapid progression of AoAC was also observed more frequently among non-PTX patients. Death occurred in 7 and 16% in the PTX and non-PTX groups, respectively. Kaplan-Meier survival curve revealed better survival associated with parathyroidectomy (p = .01). More rapid progression of AoAC also correlated with worse survival. CONCLUSION Parathyroidectomy was associated with slow progression of vascular calcification in maintenance haemodialysis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical parathyroidectomy may be required for severe and refractory secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Parathyroidectomy is associated with long-term survival benefit despite an increase in short-term morbidity and mortality. Global variation in practice exists, with limited Australian data on outcomes following parathyroidectomy. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study of patients who underwent parathyroidectomy for SHPT between January 2010 and December 2019 at a single tertiary referral centre in Melbourne, Australia. Biochemical markers and medications were assessed 12 months pre- and post-surgery. Clinical outcomes, including hospital readmission, cardiovascular events and mortality were assessed following surgery. RESULTS During the 10-year study period, 129 patients underwent parathyroidectomy for SHPT (mean age 50.7 ± 15 years, 109 (85%) on dialysis). Significant immediate post-operative complications were seen in eight patients (6%), requiring admission to the intensive care unit (n = 6) or return to theatre (n = 2). Within the first 6 months, 24 patients (19%) required hospital readmission. Within 12 months post-parathyroidectomy, 100 (78%) and 103 patients (80%) experienced at least one episode of hypercalcaemia (corrected calcium >2.6 mmol/L) or hypocalcaemia (corrected calcium <2.1 mmol/L) respectively. Over a 12-month period there were six deaths (5%), and eight patients (6%) experienced a major cardiovascular event. CONCLUSION Significant fluctuations in serum calcium levels are common post-parathyroidectomy, however long-term morbidity and mortality in our cohort were lower than previously reported, highlighting that parathyroidectomy in a carefully selected cohort is safe for severe SHPT refractory to medical treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Microwave ablation is effective for severe secondary hyperparathyroidism, but the difference in efficacy between microwave ablation and parathyroidectomy remains unclear. In this multicenter retrospective cohort study, we compared the long-term clinical efficacy of microwave ablation and parathyroidectomy for severe secondary hyperparathyroidism undergoing hemodialysis. MATERIALS AND METHODS The patients were divided into microwave ablation and parathyroidectomy groups. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients with intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) concentrations within the target range (100-600 pg/mL) during the efficacy assessment phase. The secondary endpoints were (i) differences in iPTH concentrations over time between the two groups, and (ii) decreases in iPTH concentrations over time in the two groups. RESULTS Microwave ablation was performed in 47/92 patients and parathyroidectomy in 45/92. Primary endpoint: iPTH concentrations within the target range were achieved during the efficacy assessment phase in 26/47 patients (55.3%) and in 14/45 (31.1%) patients in the microwave ablation and parathyroidectomy groups, respectively (p = .02). Secondary endpoints: (i) Mean iPTH concentrations during the efficacy assessment phase were significantly higher in the microwave ablation versus parathyroidectomy groups (649 ± 519 pg/mL versus 136 ± 228 pg/mL, respectively; p < .01). (ii) Mean decrease in iPTH concentration from baseline was 725 ± 605 pg/mL versus 1369 ± 478 pg/mL in the MWA versus parathyroidectomy groups, respectively (p < .01). CONCLUSIONS Ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation provides higher iPTH target-achieving rates than parathyroidectomy in patients with severe secondary hyperparathyroidism undergoing hemodialysis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the risk factors affecting the survival of parathyroid autograft following total parathyroidectomy combined with autologous sternocleidomastoid muscle transplantation (TPTX + AT) in patients on maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) complicated with secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). OBJECTIVE This retrospective study was conducted among the patients on maintenance hemodialysis with SHPT, who underwent successful parathyroidectomy and autotransplantation from January, 2010 to February, 2020 in our hospital. The clinical data and serum levels of calcium, phosphorus, intact parathyroid hormone, hemoglobin, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) of the patients were collected. The enrolled patients were divided into survival group with bilateral forearm parathyroid hormone (iPTH) ratio > 1.5 and death group with a ratio < 1.5 at 2 weeks after surgery for comparison of the clinical data and perioperative indicators. The risk factors of postoperative parathyroid autograft survival were analyzed using logistic regression analysis. OBJECTIVE A total of 87 patients were included in the study, among whom the graft survival rate after parathyroid transplantation was 78.16%. In both groups, serum levels of calcium, phosphorus, iPTH and ALP decreased and hemoglobin level increased significantly at 1 week and 1, 2, 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery (P < 0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that serum ALP level was an independent risk factor for graft survival following parathyroid autotransplantation [OR=1.003, 95% CI: 1.001-1.005, P=0.004]. OBJECTIVE TPTX+AT is a safe and effective treatment for SHPT, and parathyroid autografts are less likely to survive following parathyroid transplantation in patients with high preoperative level of ALP.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Circulating intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) levels include full-length (1-84) PTH and long C-PTH fragments, but primarily (7-84) PTH, which have been reported to have antagonistic effects on the bones and kidneys. However, their effects on the cardiovascular system remain unclear. In this study, the relationships between the plasma PTH fragments levels and heart rate variability (HRV) in stage 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD5) patients are explored. Furthermore, the effects of parathyroidectomy (PTX) on the above indices are investigated. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, 164 healthy controls and 354 CKD5 patients, including 208 secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) subgroup with PTX, were enrolled. Circulating (7-84) PTH levels were calculated by subtracting plasma (1-84) PTH levels from iPTH levels. The HRV parameters were measured using a 24-hour Holter. RESULTS The baseline levels of plasma iPTH, (1-84) PTH, and (7-84) PTH in the CKD5 patients were 930.40 (160.65, 1792.50) pg/mL, 448.60 (99.62, 850.45) pg/mL, and 468.20 (54.22, 922.55) pg/mL, respectively. In the CKD5 patients, plasma (1-84) PTH levels were independently correlated with the standard deviation of the normal-to-normal R-R intervals (SDNN) and the standard deviation of the five-minute average of the normal R-R intervals (SDANN). With a median follow up time of 6.50 months after PTX in the SHPT patients (n = 30), improved SDNN and SDANN markers were related with decreased (1-84) PTH levels. Furthermore, an improved SDNN was related with decreased (7-84) PTH levels. CONCLUSIONS The CKD5 patients' baseline (1-84) PTH levels were correlated with the SDNN and SDANN. After PTX, an improved SDNN was related with decreased (1-84) PTH and (7-84) PTH levels, while improved SDANN was related with decreased (1-84) PTH levels. No antagonistic effects of (1-84) PTH and (7-84) PTH on HRV were found in the CKD5 patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To summarize the clinical features of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in patients with chronic renal failure and to explore the predictive factors of postoperative hypocalcemia after total parathyroidectomy in these patients. METHODS The clinical data of 87 patients admitted to Guangdong Electric Power Hospital from May 2013 to February 2020 were reviewed. All patients underwent total parathyroid resection and sternocleidomastoid microtransplantation. Age, sex, and the serum calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) concentrations were analyzed as predictive factors of postoperative hypocalcemia. RESULTS Bone pain was the most common clinical manifestation in this study population, and all 87 patients experienced relief from their clinical symptoms after the surgical procedure. Age and the preoperative serum calcium, ALP, and iPTH concentrations were determined to be early predictive factors of postoperative hypocalcemia. CONCLUSIONS Age and the preoperative calcium, ALP, and iPTH concentrations are independent risk factors for postoperative hypocalcemia in patients with SHPT and renal disease who undergo total parathyroidectomy with sternocleidomastoid microtransplantation. These factors can help identify high-risk patients who can be managed by a multidisciplinary team to improve graft survival and quality of life.

Abstract
Background Renal hyperparathyroidism is a disease entity that is complex and poorly understood. Although there are guidelines regarding how to manage this patient group, evidence is scarce. Therefore, this survey-based study aims to map the physicians’ attitude in terms of preference for management of renal hyperparathyroidism and the influence of patient and respondent factors. Methods A survey was sent to Dutch societies of nephrology, endocrinology, and surgeons with interest in endocrine surgery. The survey consisted of eight case vignettes of renal hyperparathyroidism patients who were on hemodialysis and suitable for kidney transplantation, and varied in one of three patient variables import for decision making: age (40 vs. 65 years), parathyroid hormone (40 vs. 90 pmol/L), and serum calcium level (2.25 vs. 2.8 mmol/L). For each case, respondents could choose between maintaining conservative treatment (active vitamin D metabolites), calcimimetics, or subtotal parathyroidectomy as their treatment of choice. Categorical multilevel logistic models were used to investigate the association of patient and respondent variables with treatment preference. The influence of patient variables was determined independently of each other and by means of logistic regression the probabilities of treatment choice were calculated. Results In total, 115 surveys were included in the analysis. In 6 out of 8 cases, less than two-thirds of respondents agreed on the most favoured treatment. Among patient characteristics, the main disincentive for respondents not to choose conservative therapy was an elevated serum calcium level (subtotal parathyroidectomy vs conservative OR 93.1, 95%-CI: 48.39–179.07 and calcimimetics vs conservative OR 31.2 95%-CI: 18.58–52.30). Additionally, the most significant treatment differences were found between medical specialties and the experience of the respondents, expressed as the amount of cases the physician was involved in during the past year. Conclusions Elevated serum calcium levels were widely recognized and the prime reason for respondents to abandon conservative treatment. However, considerable disagreement in treatment preferences remained throughout the cases, demonstrating the current literature available being inconclusive in guiding physicians. Therefore, a high-quality trial comparing subtotal parathyroidectomy to medical treatment is needed to determine optimal treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Persistent secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) may occur because of residual cervicothoracic parathyroids in parathyroidectomy (PTX) patients with chronic kidney disease. We prospectively compared the predictive values of intraoperative plasma (1-84) parathyroid hormone (PTH) and intact PTH (iPTH) levels to improve the safety and efficacy of PTX. METHODS We included 100 healthy controls, 162 stage 5 chronic kidney disease patients without SHPT, and 214 patients who underwent PTX because of SHPT. Plasma iPTH and (1-84) PTH levels were measured before incision (io-iPTH0 and io-[1-84]PTH0, respectively) and 10 minutes (io-iPTH10 and io-[1-84]PTH10, respectively) and 20 minutes (io-iPTH20 and io-[1-84]PTH20, respectively) after removing all parathyroids. The percentage reduction of iPTH and (1-84) PTH at 10 minutes (io-iPTH10% and io-[1-84]PTH10%, respectively) and 20 minutes (io-iPTH20%, and io-[1-84]PTH20%, respectively) was calculated. iPTH and (1-84) PTH were measured using second- and third-generation PTH assays, respectively. RESULTS Compared with the controls and non-PTX patients, the PTX group had more obvious mineral metabolism disorders. There were 187 successful PTXs, 19 patients with persistent SHPT, and 8 patients lost to follow-up. The receiver operating characteristic curves revealed that io-(1-84)PTH10% >86.6% and io-(1-84)PTH20% >87.5% suggested successful PTX. The sensitivity of io-iPTH20% and io-(1-84)PTH20% were higher than those at the timepoint of 10 minutes. Moreover, the specificity and sensitivity of the (1-84) PTH reduction percentage were superior to that of iPTH. CONCLUSION Intraoperative reduction percentages of plasma (1-84) PTH levels are superior to iPTH for accurately predicting successful PTX, especially at 20 minutes after all cervicothoracic parathyroids had been resected.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) commonly occurs in end-stage renal disease (ESRD), leading to vascular calcification and increased mortality. For SHPT refractory to medical management, parathyroidectomy improves symptoms and decreases mortality. Medical management has changed with the release of new guidelines and advent of novel medications. We investigate recent national trends in parathyroidectomy for SHPT. MATERIALS AND METHODS We used the National/Nationwide Inpatient Sample from 2004 to 2016 to identify hospitalizations including parathyroidectomy for SHPT and calculated parathyroidectomy rates utilizing data from the United States Renal Data System. Subgroup analysis was conducted by race. Risk factors for in-hospital mortality were identified with purposeful selection and multivariable logistic regression. RESULTS From 2004 to 2016, the rate of parathyroidectomies for SHPT per 1000 ESRD patients decreased from 6.07 (95% CI: 4.83-7.32) to 3.67 (95% CI: 3.33-4.00). Black patients underwent parathyroidectomy for SHPT at a 1.8-fold higher rate than white and Hispanic patients (5.59 versus 3.04 and 3.07). Almost all tracked comorbidities increased in prevalence. In-hospital mortality trended lower (1.5% to 0.8%, P = 0.051). Risk factors for in-hospital mortality included weight loss (OR 4.19, 95% CI: 2.00-8.78) and cardiac arrhythmia (OR 3.38, 95% CI: 1.66-6.91), while additional calendar year (OR = 0.87, 95% CI: 0.80-0.95) was protective. CONCLUSIONS The etiology of the declining parathyroidectomy rate for SHPT is unclear; possible factors include changing guidelines emphasizing medical management, widespread availability of cinacalcet, changing practice patterns, and inadequate surgical referral.

Abstract
Disturbances in mineral and bone metabolism are common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), especially those undergoing dialysis. Renal osteodystrophy, which describes an alteration of bone morphology, is an important component of this systemic disorder and may explain the elevated risk of fracture which adversely affects morbidity and mortality. The most common form of renal osteodystrophy is high-turnover bone disease (osteitis fibrosa), which is induced by secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT). During the past decade, there has been considerable advances in the management of SHPT, with the introduction of the calcimimetic agents, the optimized use of nutritional and active vitamin D, and the accumulated experience with surgical parathyroidectomy. Studies supported that these advances could translate into improvement of renal bone disease and fracture prevention, as well as decreasing the risk of cardiovascular events and mortality. In this review, we summarize the available clinical evidence on the effect of old and new drugs on bone disorders in patients with CKD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hyperparathyroidism (HPT) is associated with mortality and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in dialysis patients. However, its mechanism is still unclear. It is suspected that parathyroid hormone (PTH) is associated with the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) as a possible mechanism. Thus, we examined their hormonal interaction in hemodialysis patients with secondary HPT. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventeen hemodialysis patients with HPT were included. All patients underwent total parathyroidectomy (PTx). Serum intact PTH (iPTH), calcium and phosphate levels, plasma renin activity (PRA), and plasma aldosterone levels (ALD) were measured pre- and post-PTx. RESULTS Pre-serum iPTH tended to be correlated with pre-PRA and were significantly correlated with pre-ALD (pre-PRA: r = 0.44, p = 0.07, pre-ALD: r = 0.49, p < 0.05). With the reduction in serum iPTH after PTx, PRA and ALD significantly decreased after PTx. Additionally, the change in serum iPTH tended to be correlated with the changes in PRA and ALD (PRA; r = 0.46, p = 0.05, ALD; r = 0.45, p = 0.06). CONCLUSION Our results suggest that PTH could be interrelated with RAAS in hemodialysis patients with secondary HPT.

Abstract
Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) affects a majority of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) of stage 3 or worse. Despite the development of calcimimetics and their effectiveness in treating SHPT, many patients continue to fail medical management and should be referred to a parathyroid surgeon. In this narrative review, we summarize the indications for surgical referral, preoperative planning, intraoperative strategies to guide resection, and postoperative management. In the absence of universal guidelines, it can be difficult to determine when it is appropriate to make this referral. The majority of studies evaluating parathyroidectomy (PTX) for SHPT use the criteria of parathyroid hormone level (PTH) >800 pg/ml with hypercalcemia and/or hyperphosphatemia, which may be accompanied by symptoms such as bone pain and pruritis that can improve after surgery. Although the reported utility of the various imaging modalities (i.e., 99m-technetium-sestamibi scintigraphy with computed tomography [SPECT/CT], CT, or ultrasound) is highly variable in SHPT, SPECT/CT appears to be the most sensitive. Intraoperatively, PTH monitoring is effective in predicting long-term cure of SHPT but not in predicting hypoparathyroidism. Ectopic and supernumerary parathyroid glands are common in these patients and are often implicated in persistent or recurrent disease. Postoperatively, patients are at risk of severe hypocalcemia and hungry bone syndrome requiring close monitoring and replenishment.

Delayed sampling of intraoperative parathormone may be unnecessary during parathyroidectomy in kidney-transplanted and dialysis patients. J Bras Nefrol 2021; 43:228-235. [PMID: 33475675 PMCID: PMC8257274 DOI: 10.1590/2175-8239-jbn-2020-0108] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2020] [Accepted: 11/04/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Some authors advise in favor of delayed sampling of intraoperative parathormone testing (ioPTH) during parathyroidectomy in dialysis and kidney-transplanted patients. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the intensity and the role of delayed sampling in the interpretation of ioPTH during parathyroidectomy in dialysis patients (2HPT) and successful kidney-transplanted patients (3HPT) compared to those in single parathyroid adenoma patients (1HPT). METHODS This was a retrospective study of ioPTH profiles in patients with 1HPT, 2HPT, and 3HPT operated on in a single institution. Samples were taken at baseline ioPTH (sampling at the beginning of the operation), ioPTH-10 min (10 minutes after excision of the parathyroid glands), and ioPTH-15 min (15 minutes after excision of the parathyroid glands). The values were compared to baseline. RESULTS Median percentage values of ioPTH compared to baseline (100%) were as follows: 1HPT, ioPTH-10 min = 20% and ioPTH-15 min = 16%; 2HPT, ioPTH-10 min = 14% and ioPTH-15 min = 12%; 3HPT, ioPTH-10 min = 18% and ioPTH-15 min = 15%. DISCUSSION The reduction was equally effective at 10 minutes in all groups. In successful cases, ioPTH decreases satisfactorily 10 minutes after parathyroid glands excision in dialysis and transplanted patients, despite significant differences in kidney function. The postponed sampling of ioPTH appears to be unnecessary.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of parathyroidectomy (PTx) timing on serum calcium (Ca) levels and renal functions in renal transplant recipients with severe hyperparathyroidism (HPT) remains unclear. We retrospectively aimed to investigate and compare the clinical data of patients who underwent pre- and post-transplant PTx and elucidated the impact of PTx timing on serum Ca levels and renal graft outcomes after renal transplantation (RTx). METHODS During January 2000-December 2016, 53 and 55 patients underwent post-transplant PTx (Post-RTx group) and pretransplant PTx (Pre-RTx group), respectively. The serum Ca levels and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were assessed in both groups. RESULTS At the end of the follow-up, the serum Ca levels were significantly higher and the incidence of hypocalcemia was significantly lower in the Pre-RTx group than in the Post-RTx group [9.5 vs. 8.9 mg/dL, P < 0.001; 14.5% vs. 34.0%, P = 0.024]. The decrease in the eGFR 12-36 months after RTx was more significant in the Post-RTx group than in the Pre-RTx group (-13.8% vs. -0.9%; P = 0.001). A logistic regression involving age, sex, dialysis period, and serum parathormone level revealed that post-transplant PTx is an independent risk factor for persistent hypocalcemia at the end of the follow-up (P = 0.034) and for a >20% decrease in the eGFR 12-36 months after RTx (P = 0.029). CONCLUSIONS In renal transplant candidates with severe HPT, pretransplant PTx should be considered to prevent persistent hypocalcemia and deterioration of the renal graft function.

Abstract
Background Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common complication in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients, and parathyroidectomy (PTX) is an effective treatment intervention of SHPT. However, the curative impact of PTX on left ventricular function still remains incompletely understood. To evaluate the impact of parathyroidectomy on left ventricular function in ESRD patients, we conducted this retrospective study. Methods Between Oct 1, 2010 and Oct 1, 2016, ESRD patients presented with SHPT who underwent parathyroidectomy were enrolled. We retrospectively collected the ultrasonic cardiogram parameter pre- and 1-year post-PTX, and analyzed the influence factor for the overturn of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and the improvement of ejection fraction% (EF%). Results In all the patients (135), the main ultrasonic cardiogram parameter dramatically improved after PTX. Compared with pre-PTX, the left ventricular mass (LVM) (172.82 (135.90, 212.91) g vs. 192.76 (157.56, 237.97) g, p<0.001) and the left ventricular mass index (LVMI) (107.01 (86.79, 128.42) g/m2 vs. 123.54 (105.49, 146.64) g/m2, p<0.001) significantly declined after 1 year of the PTX. Further, 43.75% patients diagnosed with LVH before the PTX have recovered from LVH. In the subgroup analysis of 35 patients with EF% ≤ 60% pre-PTX, EF% and fractional shortening% (FS%) significantly improved after 1 year of the PTX compared with pre-PTX (EF%: 64.90 ± 7.90% vs. 55.71 ± 4.78%, p<0.001; FS% 35.48 ± 6.34% vs. 29.54 ± 2.88%, p<0.001), and 82.86% patients underwent an improvement of left ventricular systolic function post 1year of the PTX. Conclusions tPTX+AT is an effective curative intervention of secondary hyperparathyroidism and can significantly overturn the LVH and increase the left ventricular systolic function.
