Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction Induced by Primary Hyperparathyroidism is Restored After Parathyroidectomy

Abstract: Background-Symptomatic primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is associated with increased cardiovascular mortality.However, data on the association between asymptomatic PHPT and cardiovascular risk are lacking. We assessed coronary flow reserve (CFR) as a marker of coronary microvascular function in asymptomatic PHPT of recent onset. Methods and Results-We studied 100 PHPT patients (80 women; age, 58Ϯ12 years) without cardiovascular disease and 50 control subjects matched for age and sex. CFR in the left anterior… Show more

“…Present results show that PHPT patients, independently of clinical presentation, bear an enhanced intermediate-high CRS in comparison to controls; these new data are in accord with previous studies reporting an increased coronary artery and cerebrovascular morbidity in PHPT [3,4,12].…”

“…Among cardiovascular alterations, increased arterial stiffness and carotid intima-media thickness, endothelial dysfunction, hypertension, left ventricular hypertrophy, and diastolic dysfunction have been reported [4,5]. Among metabolic disorders, impaired insulin sensitivity, high prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (Type 2 DM), dyslipidemia, hyperuricemia, increased body weight, and metabolic syndrome (MS) have been shown [6][7][8][9][10][11][12].…”

“…Coronary flow reserve (CFR) by transthoracic Doppler echocardiography (TDE) may provide functional assessment of the microvascular function [13]. As reported in other diseases [14,15], CFR may become of clinical relevance in the management, treatment, and risk assessment of MPN in its asymptomatic initial phase. Accordingly, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the coronary microvascular function, assessed by CFR by TDE, in healthy subjects and in patients with ET and PV without evidence of CAD.…”
