Determinants of High Parathyroid Hormone Levels in Patients With Severe Obesity and Their Relationship With the Cardiometabolic Risk Factors, Before and After a Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy Intervention
ConclusionsOur results suggest that vitamin D deficiency is not the sole determinant of hyperparathyroidism in severe obesity because visceral fat deposition and leptin could both play a role. Obesity-related hyperparathyroidism is associated with insulin resistance and atherosclerosis, although the results from previous studies were conflicting. Finally, LSG intervention does not negatively affect vitamin D status and improves hyperparathyroidism.
