STATE OF BONES IN UREMIC HYPERPARATHYROIDISM - MECHANISMS OF SKELETAL RESISTANCE TO PTH IN RENAL-FAILURE AND PSEUDOHYPOPARATHYROIDISM AND ROLE OF PTH IN OSTEOPOROSIS, OSTEOPETROSIS, AND OSTEOFLUOROSIS

The topics discussed were: [human] hyperparathyroid bone disease in chronic renal failure with secondary hyperparathyroidism; impaired response of bone cells to parathyroid hormone [PTH]; the pathogenesis of hypocalcemia in chronic renal failure and pseudohypoparathyroidism; PTH and the pathogenesis of osteoporosis; and other forms of osterosclerosis [osteopetrosis, osteofluorosis] and their relationship to PTH.
