Analysis of Bone Impairment by 3D DXA Hip Measures in Patients With Primary Hyperparathyroidism: A Pilot Study. J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2020 Jan 1;105(1):dgz060.http://hdl.handle.net/10668/14590Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) has been related to bone loss. Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) cannot distinguish between trabecular and cortical bone compartments but the recently developed three-dimensional (3D)-DXA software might overcome this issue. To examine the differences in DXA-derived areal bone mineral density (aBMD) and 3D-DXA parameters at the hip site between patients with PHPT and a healthy control group. Cross-sectional pilot study. Hospital. 80 adults (59.5 ± 9.1 yrs), 40 with PHPT and 40 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. aBMD (g/cm2) of the femoral neck, trochanter, shaft, and total hip was assessed using DXA. Cortical surface (sBMD, mg/cm2), cortical volumetric BMD (vBMD, mg/cm3), trabecular vBMD (mg/cm3), integral vBMD (mg/cm3) and cortical thickness (mm) was assessed using 3D-DXA software. Mean-adjusted values showed lower aBMD (7.5%-12.2%, effect size: 0.51-1.01) in the PHPT group compared with the control group (all P aBMD and cortical 3D parameters are impaired in patients with PHPT versus healthy controls. The vBMD of the trabecular compartment seems to be affected, although to a lesser extent.en3D-DXABone QCTDXAOsteoporosisparathyroid-related disordersAbsorptiometry, PhotonAgedBone DensityBone Diseases, MetabolicCase-Control StudiesCross-Sectional StudiesFemaleHumansHyperparathyroidism, PrimaryImaging, Three-DimensionalMaleMiddle AgedPelvic BonesPilot ProjectsSpainresearch article31588503Restricted AccessAbsorciometría de fotónDensidad óseaEnfermedades óseas metabólicasHiperparatiroidismo primarioHuesos pélvicosImagenología tridimensional10.1210/clinem/dgz0601945-7197https://academic.oup.com/jcem/article-pdf/105/1/175/36508103/dgz060.pdf
