Risk of Cardiovascular Conditions in Patients with Chronic Hypoparathyroidism: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

In patients with chronic hypoparathyroidism disordered calcium homeostasis has been associated with risk of cardiovascular diseases, including cardiomyopathy, congestive heart failure, and arrhythmia; however, larger-scale studies are needed to examine these risks. This study evaluated the risk of cardiovascular conditions among patients with chronic hypoparathyroidism.

Methods

Adults with and without chronic hypoparathyroidism were selected from a medical insurance claims database in the USA from January 2007 to June 2017, and were followed for up to 5 years. Associations between chronic hypoparathyroidism and incident atrial fibrillation (AF), tachyarrhythmia, myocardial infarction (MI), coronary artery disease (CAD), heart failure (HF), stroke, cerebrovascula
