Objective:To access the relation of aortic arch calcification (AoAC) volume based on parathyroid SPECT/CT imaging with hungry bone syndrome (HBS) in patients with renal secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) after parathyroidectomy (PTX).Methods:From June 2015 to May 2024, the imaging and clinical data of 89 renal SHPT patients (52 males, 37 females, age: (51.5±10.3) years) who underwent parathyroid 99Tc m-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) SPECT/CT in Affiliated Jiangyin Hospital of Nantong University were retrospectively analyzed. The AoAC volume was measured by Volume software of SPECT/CT system. The patients were divided into HBS group and non-HBS group, and the independent-sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare differences of various indicators between the two groups. Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of HBS. Results:All 89 patients underwent PTX successfully, 50 patients (56.2%) were with HBS and 39 patients (43.8%) were not. The differences of age ((47.9±9.9) vs (56.1±9.0) years, t=-3.98, P<0.001), AoAC volume (0.36(0.02, 1.30) vs 1.57(0.37, 3.77)cm 3, Z=-3.17, P=0.002), preoperative alkaline phosphatase (ALP) (345.75(218.50, 632.50) vs (203.13±114.57)U/L, Z=-4.69, P<0.001), preoperative parathyroid hormone (147.85(109.83, 227.40) vs (135.58±51.14)pmol/L, Z=-2.34, P=0.019) and preoperative serum corrected calcium ((2.38±0.21) vs 2.54(2.39, 2.62)mmol/L, Z=-3.09, P=0.002) between HBS group and non-HBS group were significant. Logistic regression analysis showed that the AoAC volume ((odds ratio, OR)=0.628, 95% CI: 0.427-0.924, P=0.018), preoperative ALP ( OR=1.007, 95% CI: 1.002-1.012, P=0.010) and preoperative serum corrected calcium ( OR=0.041, 95% CI: 0.003-0.545, P=0.016) were independent risk factors for HBS. Conclusion:The AoAC volume measured by preoperative SPECT/CT can be used for an effective criteria of evaluating HBS in patients with renal SHPT after PTX, and AoAC volume may be one of independent risk factors for HBS.

Objective:To investigate the relationship of the number and morphological of parathyroid glands on 99Tc m-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) SPECT/CT with hungry bone syndrome (HBS) in patients with renal secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) after parathyroidectomy (PTX). Methods:Eighty renal SHPT patients (46 males, 34 females; age (50.3±11.0) years) who underwent PTX between January 2018 and June 2024 were retrospectively analyzed in Affiliated Jiangyin Hospital of Nantong University. The number of parathyroid glands detected on SPECT/CT, diameter of parathyroid gland and its volume were recorded and measured. Patients were divided into HBS group and non-HBS group. Independent-sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test and χ2 test were used to compare differences of various indicators between those 2 groups. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze influencing factors of HBS. Results:HBS group included 45 patients and the rest 35 patients belonged to non-HBS group. Age ( t=-3.61, P=0.001), preoperative alkaline phosphatase (ALP) ( Z=-4.65, P<0.001), preoperative parathyroid hormone ( Z=-2.34, P=0.019) and preoperative serum corrected calcium ( t=-2.71, P=0.008) were all significantly different between HBS group and non-HBS group. Patients with the number of parathyroid glands≥4 detected by SPECT/CT were more in HBS group than those in non-HBS group (82.2%(37/45) vs 51.4%(18/35); χ2=8.87, P=0.003), and the total volume of parathyroid glands (2.56(1.93, 4.44) vs 2.00(1.18, 2.94)cm 3;Z=-2.25, P=0.024) and the maximum diameter of parathyroid glands ((17.71±3.78) vs (15.87±3.91) mm; t=2.14, P=0.036) were significantly different between those 2 groups. Logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative ALP (odds ratio ( OR)=1.008, 95% CI: 1.002-1.014, P=0.015), preoperative serum corrected calcium ( OR=0.017, 95% CI: 0.000-0.869, P=0.042) and the number of parathyroid gland≥4 detected by SPECT/CT ( OR=4.156, 95% CI: 1.038-16.642, P=0.044) were independent influencing factors for HBS. The sensitivity of the number of parathyroid glands≥4 detected by SPECT/CT for diagnosing HBS was 82.2%(37/45). Conclusion:The number of parathyroid glands≥4 detected by SPECT/CT is an independent influencing factor for HBS, with high diagnostic sensitivity for HBS, thus having good clinical value.

Purpose To investigate the value of 99Tcm-(methoxyisobutvlisonitrile,MIBI)bone uptake on hungry bone syndrome(HBS)in renal secondary hyperparathyroidism(SHPT)after parathyroidectomy.Materials and Methods From June 2014 to December 2021,106 renal SHPT patients who underwent successful parathyroidectomy in Jiangyin Hospital Affiliated Nantong University were retrospectively enrolled.Visual analysis was used to evaluate the abnormal bone uptake of 99Tcm-MIBI.The patients were divided into HBS group and non-HBS group based on whether occurred HBS.The clinical features,laboratory indicators and 99Tcm-MIBI bone uptake were compared between the two groups.Results Of 106 renal SHPT patients,42(39.62%)patients with bone uptake on visual assessment,showed diffusely increased tracer accumulation,particularly in sternum,clavicle and ribs.The age in HBS group was younger than that in non-HBS group(t=-3.058),the alkaline phosphatase and parathyroid hormone level in HBS group were higher than that in non-HBS group(Z=-5.148,-2.218),the serum corrected calcium in HBS group was lower than that in non-HBS group(Z=-2.102),the positive rate and number of 99Tcm-MIBI bone uptake in HBS group was 50%and 2(1,3),which was higher than that of 28%and 1(1,1)in non-HBS group(χ2=5.344,Z=-2.970),respectively,all showed statistically significant difference(all P<0.05).Conclusion Renal SHPT patient with HBS after parathyroidectomy is commonly related to a high level of alkaline phosphatase and parathyroid hormone,and more likely to develop abnormal 99Tcm-MIBI bone uptake.

Objective:To access the clinical value and related risk factors of aortic arch calcification (AoAC) in patients with renal secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) on CT during parathyroid SPECT/CT imaging.Methods:From January 2014 to May 2021, 136 renal SHPT patients (70 males, 66 females, age (50.1±11.4) years) who underwent parathyroid 99Tc m-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) SPECT/CT in Affiliated Jiangyin Hospital of Nantong University were retrospectively enrolled. AoAC score was estimated with CT(1-5), and patients were divided into none-light AoAC group (AoAC score<3) and moderate-severe AoAC group (AoAC score≥3). Independent-sample t test or Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare differences of various indicators between two groups. Univariate binary logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of AoAC. Results:Of 136 renal SHPT patients, 111(81.62%) were AoAC detected by CT. There were 84 patients in none-light AoAC group and 52 patients in moderate-severe AoAC group. The age ((46.7±9.8) vs (55.7±11.6) years; t=-4.84, P<0.001), pulse pressure (52(41, 64) vs 60(51, 70) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa); z=-3.27, P=0.001), serum corrected calcium (2.41(2.28, 2.53) vs (2.49±0.22) mmol/L; z=-2.50, P=0.013), serum phosphorus ((1.95±0.39) vs (2.14±0.48) mmol/L; t=-2.54, P=0.012), calcium phosphorus product ((4.68±1.07) vs (5.29±1.10) mmol 2/L 2;t=-3.21, P=0.013) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) level (106.30(90.15, 127.45) vs 109.90(87.93, 157.63) pmol/L; z=-2.09, P=0.036) between non-light AoAC group and moderate-severe AoAC group were significantly different. Logistic regression analysis showed that serum phosphorus (odds ratio ( OR)=7.261, 95% CI: 2.416-21.819, P<0.001), calcium and phosphorus product ( OR=1.598, 95% CI: 1.073-2.380, P=0.021) and PTH level ( OR=1.018, 95% CI: 1.007-1.029, P=0.001) were independent risk factors of AoAC. Conclusions:Hybrid SPECT/CT can be used for an effective method of evaluating AoAC in patients with renal SHPT. High serum phosphorus, high calcium phosphorus product and high PTH level may be independent risk factors of AoAC.
