Pain is a major complaint in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Concentrations of parathyroid hormone (PTH) \>250 pg/ml are associated with chronic pain. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score which is used to assess the pain severity is positively related to PTH levels. This study is aimed to assess the effects of multiple …
Treatment of renal osteodystrophy is impeded by the lack of practical and accurate tools to determine underlying bone turnover. Gold standard bone biopsy is not practical in the clinic for the vast majority of kidney disease patients and parathyroid hormone and bone alkaline phosphatase have insufficient accuracy for turnover type …
This study tests PTFinder, a dual-camera system that makes parathyroid glands glow on screen by capturing their natural near-infrared autofluorescence. After a thyroid or parathyroid operation, the removed tissue is scanned with PTFinder and then checked again under normal white light. We will measure how fast (seconds) and how accurately …
Background People have 4 parathyroid glands near the thyroid gland in the neck. Surgery is needed to remove a parathyroid gland that is too large or has a tumor. These glands can be in different places, so doctors use an imaging scan with contrast dye to help find them before …
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate safety, tolerability, and how CTAP101 Capsules work to treat Pediatric Participants with Secondary Hyperparathyroidism, Stage 3 or 4 Chronic Kidney Disease and Vitamin D Insufficiency. The main questions it aims to answer are: To assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) and Pharmacodynamics (PD) …
This study evaluates whether surgical removal of the parathyroid gland (parathyroidectomy) improves physical function and mobility in older adults with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). PHPT, a common endocrine disorder in older adults, is associated with reduced muscle strength, mobility, and quality of life. This prospective observational study will enroll up to …
The purpose of this research study is to validate (check the accuracy of) laboratory assays, intravenous catheter insertion, and equipment or devices and their reproducibility, which is necessary to perform high quality research on chronic diseases, nutrition, and metabolism (the process by which a substance is handled in the body) …
