Asymptomatic Primary Hyperparathyroidism
Abstract
A 60-year-old woman is noted incidentally to have a calcium level of 10.8 mg per deciliter (normal range, 8.4 to 10.2 mg per deciliter). The parathyroid hormone level is 84 pg per milliliter (normal range, 10 to 65). She has never had a kidney stone or a fracture, and she feels well. Her urinary calcium excretion is normal. Her bone density is within 0.5 SD of the peak bone mass at the lumbar spine and the hip and is 1.0 SD below the peak bone mass at the forearm. How should her case be managed?

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.
