Active clinical trials for "Hyperparathyroidism, Secondary"

The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of secondary hyperparathyroidism among patients with diabetic nephropathy.

Through multi-center randomized controlled trial studies on preemptive surgical intervention in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) - secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), to precisely evaluate the safety and effectiveness during perioperative period, and the long-term outcomes by 1-year follow-up. The follow-ups include the evaluation of the overall quality of life, calcium and phosphorus metabolism, hyperparathyroidism level, vitamin D metabolism, bone mineral density, soft tissue and vascular calcification.

Results from KDOQI guidelines, parathyroid hormone (PTH) level within target range is 150-300pg/ml. Both lower PTH levels and higher PTH levels were associated with higher risk of all-cause mortality. However, in out of target range, it is still unknown which mortality higher. so, in this prospective, observational clinical trial study. the investigators will observe the mortality and cardiovascular incidence rate between SHPT(>800pg/ml) and low serum PTH levels(<60pg/ml). Both two groups of patients will receive a reasonable treatment according to the suggestions in K/DOQI guidelines.
