Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of parathyroidectomy for secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), and to analyze the changes and trends of perioperative intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), serum calcium and serum phosphorus, and the predictive value of intraoperative parathyroid hormone (ioPTH) measurement for surgical completion. To provide practical theoretical basis and reference for postoperative treatment of SHPT.Methods:Data of 479 SHPT patients admitted to the First Hospital of Harbin from Dec. 2012 to Dec. 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the admission criteria, 457 patients were screened out and divided into PTX group and incomplete PTX group based on whether the level of postoperative parathyroid hormone was reduced to the normal standard. The levels of iPTH, serum calcium and phosphorus during the perioperative period in the two groups were statistically analyzed. SPSS 26.0 statistical software was used for data processing. P<0.05 indicated statistically significant difference. Results:In the analyzed group of 457 patients, the average age was (45.43±11.25) years and the average dialysis age was (90.3±35.8) months. Hypercalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, hyperkalemia and high alkaline phosphatase levels accounted for 41.79%, 94.31%, 20.35% and 75.50%, respectively. Bone loss and osteoporosis accounted for 35.45% and 62.36%, respectively. The incidence of restless leg syndrome was 7.67%. IoPTH and post-operative iPTH level in the PTX group were significantly lower than those in the incomplete PTX group ( P=0.001, P<0.001). IoPTH≤150 pg/mL can predict surgical success, and 58.33% of cases can predict surgical failure by ioPTH being 30% higher than preoperative iPTH. There were significant differences in serum calcium and phosphorus levels between the two groups at 3 hours and 2 days after operation. The incidence of hypocalcemia was 43.19% and 82.49% on the day of operation and within 3 days after operation, and the incidence of hungry bone syndrome was 62.12% in the PTX group. The incidence of postoperative hyperkalemia, arteriovenous fistula thrombosis, temporary hoarseness, bleeding and in-hospital mortality was 43.33%, 1.75%, 0.66%, 0.44% and 0.22%, respectively. Conclusions:Parathyroidectomy is an effective and safe treatment for secondary hyperparathyroidism, and ioPTH plays an important role in predicting the success of surgery. Timely and effective calcium supplementation is an important measure to prevent the serious occurrence and morbidity of bone hunger syndrome.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the protective effect and potential mechanism of cornuside on diabetic nephropathy （DN） model mice. METHODS Male KK-Ay mice were fed with high-fat and high-sugar diet for two weeks to reproduce the DN model. The successfully modeled mice were randomly grouped into model group， aminoguanidine group （positive control，100 mg/kg） and cornuside group （100 mg/kg）， and male C57BL/6J mice were included as normal group， with 6 mice in each group. Administration groups were given relevant medicine intragastrically， and normal group and model group were given a constant volume of normal saline intragastrically， once a day， for 8 consecutive weeks. The levels of fasting blood glucose （FBG）， 24 h urinary protein， serum interleukin-12 （IL-12）， IL-10， blood urea nitrogen （BUN） and serum creatinine （Scr） were detected； the pathological injury， fibrotic change and glomerular microstructure of renal tissue were observed； the expressions of the receptor of advanced glycation end products （RAGE）， collagen type Ⅳ （COL-Ⅳ） and inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS） in renal cortex were detected in each group. RESULTS Compared with normal group， the renal cortex of mice in model group showed obvious inflammatory cell infiltration and fibrotic changes； the mesangial hyperplasia of glomerulus was serious and the basement membrane had a large number of irregular dark dense deposits； the levels of FBG and 24 h urinary protein， the serum levels of IL- 12， BUN and Scr， and the expression levels of RAGE， COL-Ⅳ and iNOS in the renal cortex were significantly increased， while the serum level of IL-10 was significantly decreased （P＜0.01）. Compared with the model group， the renal pathological injuries， fibrotic changes and glomerular microstructure of mice in administration groups were improved significantly， and the above quantitative indexes were generally improved （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS Cornuside has a certain protective effect on DN model mice. It can inhibit the inflammatory response， reduce urinary protein excretion， and alleviate renal fibrosis， which may be related to the inhibition of the advanced glycation end products/RAGE signaling pathway.
