Normocalcaemic, vitamin D sufficient hyperparathyroidism ‐ high prevalence and low morbidity in the general population A long‐term follow‐up study, the WHO MONICA project, Gothenburg, Sweden
ConclusionsThis small random population study showed that nHPT was common, 11% at follow‐up. Only one individual developed mild hypercalcaemia in 13 years. Previous S‐PTH was predictive of nHPT and hypertension was prevalent, but no increase in hard end points was seen over a 17‐year period.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
