A new method of in vitro monitoring and assessing the need of a medication which interferes with the regulation of the parathyroid hormone level in a kidney patient subject to oxidative stress, notably hemodialysis patients. Figure 1 shows the distribution of n-oxPTH concentrations in 340 hemodialysis patients (224 men and 116 women) with a median age of 66 years (IQR, 56 to 75 years), a median time since initiation of dialysis (dialysis vintage) of 266 days (IQR, 31 to 1209 days), and a median dialysis dose (kt/V) of 1.2 (IQR, 1.1 to 1.3). The cause of chronic kidney disease was nephrosclerosis in 113 cases (33%), diabetic nephropathy in 107 cases (31 %), chronic glomerular nephritis in 29 cases (9%), polycystic kidney disease in 9 cases (3%) and other/unknown in 82 cases (24%). The median n-oxPTH concentration was 5.9 ng/L (IQR, 2.4 to 14.0 ng/L). n-oxPTH concentrations were not different in men and women (5.9 ng/L; IQR, 2.4 to 14.2 ng/L; n = 224; vs. 5.5 ng/L; IQR, 2.4 to 14.0 ng/L; n = 1 16; p = 0.915). |
