Burden of Secondary Hyperparathyroidism Among Patients on Hemodialysis: A Cross-Sectional Study
SHPT was identified in nearly one-fifth of hemodialysis patients, with higher prevalence among males, diabetics, hypertensives, and those on prolonged dialysis. These findings highlight the importance of regular biochemical monitoring and early intervention to reduce SHPT-related complications and improve long-term outcomes in hemodialysis-dependent patients.
