Circulating miRNA in Primary Hyperparathyroidism

Circulating microRNA Signatures in Primary Hyperparathyroidism

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 1 Aug 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this study is to: 1. Analyze the expression levels of circulating (serum) miRNAs in primary hyperparathyroidism patients with and without osteoporosis, and patients with osteoporosis undergoing thyroidectomy, and to correlate with clinical markers of bone remodeling including biochemical and radiologic studies. 2. To evaluate serum miRNA levels after treatment with parathyroidectomy.
