Clinical, Biochemical and Radiographic Alterations in Kittens with Experimental Induced Nutritional Secondary Hyperparathyroidism

Abstract: Nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism (NSHPT) is a metabolic disorder that is caused by excessive phosphate in diets, insufficient calcium, or both. This study was carried out on 20 male kittens with 2-3 month of age. The NSHPT was induced in 10 kittens by feeding solely on heart beef meat for 9 weeks.

“…The results of the study indicated a significant decrease in the values of blood pH level, PO 2 , PCO 2 , value of BE and concentration rates of sodium ion, bicarbonate, Chloride ion, calcium ion and nonionized calcium. The above changes indicate the occurrence of dehydration and acidosis in calves with diarrhea (11,22).…”
