  • Title: [Radioimmunologic determination of circulating parathyroid hormone in patients with primary and secondary hyperparathyroidism].
    Author: Lo Giudice C, Cascone C, Manente P, Gasparoni P, De Luca M, Rota G, Conte N.
    Journal: Minerva Med; 1982 Dec 15; 73(48):3425-8. PubMed ID: 7177469.
    Abstract:
    A radioimmunological evaluation was made of plasma parathormone (PTH), using an antibody against the C-terminal fraction, in 14 subjects with primary parahyperthyroidism, and in 19 anuric subjects with secondary forms on three-weekly dialysis. In all cases, values were significantly higher (p less than 0.01) than in a group of normal controls. In secondary forms, the same significance was also apparent on comparison with primary forms, probably due to an absence of renal clearance of the hormone.
