Article Synopsis
- Severe uncontrolled secondary hyperparathyroidism and a history of kidney transplantation increase the risk of fractures in hemodialyzed patients, and those returning to dialysis after transplant failure face greater health challenges than transplant-naive patients.
- A study comparing 29 transplant failure patients to 58 transplant-naive patients showed that while initial parathyroid hormone and vitamin D levels were similar, transplant failure patients had significantly higher parathyroid hormone levels and rates of uncontrolled secondary hyperparathyroidism after one year of dialysis.
- The findings indicate that younger patients with transplant failures are particularly at risk for developing severe secondary hyperparathyroidism, highlighting the need for close monitoring and management in this population.
