[The diuresis of cyclic adenosine-3'5'-monophosphate (cAMP) in primary and secondary disorders of the parathyroid glands].

The diuresis of cAMP in primary hyperparathyroidism was significantly higher at 7.3 +/- 2.5 mumol/g creatinine X 24 h (P less than 0.005) than that in healthy subjects (3.5 +/- 0.7 mumol/g creatinine X 24 h). After successful operation on the parathyroid gland, cAMP diuresis usually decreased within 24 hours to normal or subnormal values. In primary or secondary hypoparathyroidism subnormal amounts of cAMP (P less than 0.005) were excreted. The method gives false-negative results in functional disorders of the parathyroid glands accompanied or caused by renal failure.

[Resections of the pancreas: their effects on bone and calcium metabolism (author's transl)].

Four to ten years after partial or total resections of the pancreas calcium and bone metabolism was investigated. A high-turnover osteoporosis is proved by bone histomorphometry. There were no signs of osteomalacia or secondary hyperparathyroidism. Radiocalciumkinetics in all cases showed an increase endogenous fecal loss of calcium. Both, intestinal absorption and renal excretion of calcium were normal. Pathophysiologic relationship between resections of the pancreas and their influence on calcium and bone metabolism has not been sufficiently explained until now. Further investigation will be necessary.

[Mineral content of bone in long-standing diabetes: densitometry of "diabetic osteopathy" (author's transl)].

Using 125I-photon absorption, skeletal mineral content was measured in 57 diabetics requiring insulin. Average age was 33 years, mean duration of diabetes 19 years. Abnormally reduced mineral content was detected in ten of 21 males and 11 of 36 women. This finding is interpreted as being a late complication of diabetes. Pathological fractures were not seen and there were very few complaints referable to the skeletal system.

On an attempt to treat primary and secondary osteoporosis with human growth hormone.

Three male patients with severe osteoporosis were treated with human growth hormone. One of them had a primary osteoporosis, the two others osteogenesis imperfecta. The duration of therapy was 8 to 15 months and average doses per day were 1.45 to 2.3 mg. While clinical and 47calcium kinetic data failed to prove marked influences of the treatment, histomorphometry of bone biopsies showed indisputable changes. There was an increase of periosteal new bone formation as well as of intracortical bone resorption, while at the same time the relative activity of osteoblasts on endosteal surfaces showed a significant increase.
