PTH, Intact and Calcium Test code(s) 8837 Question 1. What is the purpose of this test? Question 2. How are test results interpreted? Question 3. Is any patient preparation required for this test? Question 4. What type of specimen is required? Question 5. What can interfere with parath...
Intact parathormone (PTH 1-84) was measured with a new immunoradiometric method in serum from 83 children and adults with various abnormalities of calcium metabolism. The results were compared with those of an assay of midregional PTH fraction (44-68). Both measurements discriminated well between...
The circulating level of calcitriol is often considered abnormal without regard to the factors responsible for calcitriol synthesis: serum Ca, POand iPTH level. Using a precise assay for calcitriol and an antibody assay for C-terminal and intact PTH, a ratio of PTH to calcitriol was determined ...
However, there is evidence that these first-generation assays for intact PTH also detect non-(1–84)-PTH peptides, in particular PTH 7–84, which may have different biological actions from the full-length peptide. Assays based on antibodies directed at the first four amino acids of PTH (...
Chemiluminescence immunoassay was used to measure intact PTH with a manufacturer’s quoted coefficients of variation of 7.8% at 4.3 pmol/L and a detection range of 0.265 to 201 pmol/L. Calcium concentrations were measured using a colorimetric assay and were adjusted for albumin; values are ...

In the model with the interaction term, both vitamin D status (P<.001), calcium intake group (P = .02), and the interaction between the 2 (P = .01) were significantly associated with serum PTH levels, as were all the covariates (all P≤.001). Figure 2 shows the adjusted means ...
The suppressed PTH concentrations and high calcitonin levels of pregnancy may contribute to renal calcium excretion. This is absorptive hypercalciuria, which means that increased intestinal calcium absorption results in more calcium being absorbed than required, such that the excess is excreted by the ...
There was no effect of either hormone on K,P5Ca in placentas from intact fetuses, or on KmfSICr-EDTA(used as an extracellular marker) in either group. When 4 ng/mL r[Nle8321,Ty?4] PTH(1-34), 50 pg/mL 1,25(OH),D3 or the appropriate diluent was perfused through observed was a...
