Reduction by Cimetidine of Serum Parathyroid Hormone Levels in Uremic Patients

Jacob, Allan I., Lanier, Douglas, Canterbury, Janet, Bourgoignie, Jacques J.·1980·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

Dietary restriction of phosphorus1 , 2 and administration of antacids3 have been shown to prevent or reverse uremic hyperparathyroidism, but patients find this therapy unpalatable and difficult to maintain. Recent case reports suggest a decrease of circulating levels of immunoreactive parathyroid hormone (iPTH) with cimetidine in two patients with primary hyperparathyroidism and ulcer disease.4 , 5 We therefore evaluated the effects of cimetidine on circulating levels of iPTH, ionized calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus in patients on maintenance hemodialysis for end-stage renal disease. We found that cimetidine reversibly lowered iPTH levels without affecting serum concentrations of calcium, phosphorus, or magnesium.MethodsSeven patients (five men . . .

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
