EnglishCalcitonin (CT) plasma levels and urinary hydroxyproline (OHPr) excretion were studied in twenty-eight patients (eleven males and seventeen females) with primary hyperparathyroidism in order to ascertain the effect of CT secretion on the severity of bone disease. The results show that in primary hyperparathyroidism plasma CT levels are increased in about 50% of patients independent of sex. Plasma CT levels were correlated with serum calcium values in males but not in females. Urinary OHPr excretion values appeared higher in those patients which showed lower CT plasma levels. In this latter group the incidence of undetectable CT plasma values was higher in females. The results suggest that in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism the persistent challenge of CT secreting parafollicular cells due to chronic hypercalcemia, may induce a decrease in their functional reserve, and that the bone involvement may have a greater incidence and more severe course in females, due at least in part, for their inability to increase CT secretion as much as males, due to an intrinsic sex-related lower CT secretory reserve.
