Bone metabolism and risk of secondary hyperparathyroidism 12 months after gastric banding in obese pre-menopausal women.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To evaluate, during the first postoperative year in obese pre-menopausal women, the effects of laparoscopic gastric banding on calcium and vitamin D metabolism, the potential modifications of bone mineral content and bone mineral density, and the risk of development of secondary

Trabecular Bone Score in Obese and Nonobese Subjects With Primary Hyperparathyroidism Before and After Parathyroidectomy.

Only registered users can translate articles

Obesity has been shown to be unfavorable to skeletal microarchitecture when assessed by trabecular bone score (TBS). The influence of adiposity on skeletal microstructure in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) has not yet been evaluated. To investigate the effect of obesity on TBS and bone mineral

Renal Tubular Acidosis after Jejunoileal Bypass for Morbid Obesity: role of secondary hyperparathyroidism.

Only registered users can translate articles

The effect of calcium infusion was studied in patients with renal tubular acidosis (RTA) and secondary hyperparathyroidism. Both developed after jejunoileal bypass operation (JIB) for morbid obesity. In three of four cases the acidification defect was abolished, probably due to a decrease of serum

The prevalence of hypovitaminosis D and secondary hyperparathyroidism in obese Black Americans.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Both obesity (body mass index, BMI > or = 30 kg/m2) and Black race are associated with a higher risk of vitamin D deficiency and secondary hyperparathyroidism. We hypothesized the risk of hypovitaminosis D would therefore be extraordinarily high in obese Black adults. OBJECTIVE To study

Obesity is associated with secondary hyperparathyroidism in men with moderate and severe chronic kidney disease.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Obesity is associated with secondary hyperparathyroidism in the general population. The objective of this study is to explore whether the same association is present in patients with chronic kidney disease. METHODS Linear regression models were used to examine the association between

Comparison of vitamin D deficiency and secondary hyperparathyroidism in obese and non-obese children and adolescents.

Obesity subjects individuals into metabolic and endocrine disorders. Thus obesity may increase the risk of vitamin D deficiency. This text aims at studying the prevalence of vitamin D deficiency and secondary hyperparathyroidism in obese children. In a non-randomized case control study on 52 obese

Influence of morbid obesity on parathyroidectomy outcomes in primary hyperparathyroidism.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND We sought to evaluate the influence of morbid obesity in patients undergoing parathyroidectomy for primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT). METHODS All patients with pHPT who underwent parathyroidectomy at a single institution between July 2002 and October 2008 were included. Body mass index

Severe obesity is associated with symptomatic presentation, higher parathyroid hormone levels, and increased gland weight in primary hyperparathyroidism.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND A relationship between primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) and obesity has been observed but is incompletely understood. Furthermore, obesity has been associated with vitamin D deficiency, suggesting that the three conditions may be linked. OBJECTIVE We hypothesized that PHPT in morbidly

Risk of secondary hyperparathyroidism after laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery in obese women.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Metabolic bone disease is a potential complication of bariatric surgery. The aims of our study were to evaluate the effects of laparoscopic gastric bypass on calcium and vitamin D metabolism, and to identify patients at high risk to develop secondary hyperparathyroidism

Bone mass decreases in morbidly obese women after long limb-biliopancreatic diversion and marked weight loss without secondary hyperparathyroidism. A physiological adaptation to weight loss?

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of marked weight loss after long limb-biliopancreatic diversion (BPD-LL) on bone mass and serum calcium, 25-OH-vitamin D, and PTH levels in relation to calcium supplementation. BACKGROUND BPD is the most effective type of bariatric surgery, but it is followed by

Secondary hyperparathyroidism and osteopenia in women following gastric exclusion surgery for obesity.

Only registered users can translate articles

Gastric exclusion has been introduced as a surgical treatment for morbid obesity. We describe two women who had undergone gastric bypass for obesity with metabolic bone disease and secondary hyperparathyroidism. In one patient transiliac bone biopsy after double tetracycline labelling demonstrated

Rates of secondary hyperparathyroidism after bypass operation for super-morbid obesity: An overlooked phenomenon.

Only registered users can translate articles

With over 110,000 bariatric operations performed in the United States annually, it is important to understand the biochemical abnormalities causing endocrine dysfunction associated with these procedures. Here we compare 2 malabsorptive procedures, duodenal switch and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, to

The impact of obesity on the presentation of primary hyperparathyroidism.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Obesity has been associated with elevated serum PTH (sPTH) in the general population. Obesity may also alter the clinical presentation in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). OBJECTIVE The objectives of the study were to compare the clinical presentation of obese (OB) vs

Unchanged hypovitaminosis D and secondary hyperparathyroidism in morbid obesity after bariatric surgery.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Morbidly obese patients have been reported to present with vitamin D insufficiency and secondary hyperparathyroidism. We assessed whether bariatric surgery alters the 25-hydroxyvitamin D (calcidiol) and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) levels in patients presenting with morbid

Secondary hyperparathyroidism of morbid obesity regresses during weight reduction.

Only registered users can translate articles

In order to test the relation between obesity and the secondary hyperparathyroidism found in markedly overweight subjects, 24 morbidly obese patients were studied before and after a weight loss of 35.9 kg obtained by a nutritionally adequate, intermittent very-low-calorie diet. Overweight was
