Description

To explore the relationship between the bone mineral density (BMD) and serum PTH, BGP and CT levels in patients with hyperthyroidism. The serum levels of BGP, CT and PTH in 167 patients with hyperthyroidism and 58 normal controls were determined by RIA. The results showed that the serum CT levels and BMD in patients with hyperthyroidism were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.01). The serum levels of PTH and BGP in patients were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.01). The BMD in patients with hyperthyroidism was related to the serum levels of PTH, BGP and CT. (authors)
