To investigate the relationship between parathyroid gland weight and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT).
In this retrospective case control study, we reviewed 329 PHPT patients aged from 20 to 85 years who had a parathyroidectomy at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital. The patients were divided into 5 quintiles according to their parathyroid gland weight: 68 patients had a parathyroid gland weight <0.3 g, 66 patients had a gland weight 0.3-0.45 g, 67 patients had a gland weight 0.45-0.7 g, 63 patients had a gland weight 0.7-1.25 g, and 65 patients had a gland weight ≥1.25 g.
Body Mass Index (BMI) trended to be higher across the quintiles of parathyroid gland weight (P = 0.003). Serum calcium and PTH levels were significantly increased across parathyroid gland quintiles (p < 0.0001). HDL levels tended to be lower across the increasing quintiles of parathyroid gland weight (P = 0.01). There was a negative relationship between log parathyroid gland weight and HDL in patients with PHPT in a simple linear regression (r = -0.160, P = 0.003). The negative association remained significant after adjustment for age and BMI (r = -0.114, P = 0.039). Furthermore, parathyroid gland weight was significantly associated with levels of triglyceride (r = 0.126, P = 0.02), but this relationship lost its significance after adjustment for age and BMI (r = 0.082, P ˃ 0.05).
PHPT patients with heavier parathyroid glands tended to have higher BMI and lower HDL levels.
探讨原发性甲状旁腺功能亢进症(PHPT)患者甲状旁腺重量与高密度脂蛋白(HDL)水平之间的关系。
在这项回顾性病例对照研究中,我们回顾了329例年龄在20至85岁之间、于罗伯特·伍德·约翰逊大学医院接受甲状旁腺切除术的PHPT患者。根据甲状旁腺重量将患者分为5个五分位数组:68例患者甲状旁腺重量<0.3g,66例患者甲状旁腺重量为0.3 - 0.45g,67例患者甲状旁腺重量为0.45 - 0.7g,63例患者甲状旁腺重量为0.7 - 1.25g,65例患者甲状旁腺重量≥1.25g。
甲状旁腺重量五分位数组的体重指数(BMI)呈上升趋势(P = 0.003)。甲状旁腺五分位数组的血清钙和甲状旁腺激素(PTH)水平显著升高(p < 0.0001)。随着甲状旁腺重量五分位数的增加,HDL水平呈下降趋势(P = 0.01)。在简单线性回归中,PHPT患者的甲状旁腺重量对数与HDL之间存在负相关(r = -0.160,P = 0.003)。在调整年龄和BMI后,这种负相关仍然显著(r = -0.114,P = 0.039)。此外,甲状旁腺重量与甘油三酯水平显著相关(r = 0.126,P = 0.02),但在调整年龄和BMI后,这种关系失去了显著性(r = 0.082,P > 0.05)。
甲状旁腺较重的PHPT患者往往BMI较高且HDL水平较低。
